* Remove IAssemblyProvider.
* Remove DefaultAssemblyProvider in favor of DefaultAssemblyPartDiscoveryProvider.
* Update AddMvcDnx to add the list of DNX discovered assemblies to the list of application parts.
* Added ViewComponentFeture and ViewComponentFeatureProvider to perform view component discovery.
* Changed view component discovery to use application parts.
* Changed ViewComponentDescriptorProvider to make use of Application parts.
* Added AddViewComponentsAsServices method on IMvcBuilder that performs view component
discovery through the ApplicationPartManager and registers those view components as
services in the service collection. Assemblies should be added to the ApplicationPartManager
in order to discover view components in them in them.
* Added ControllerFeature and ControllerFeatureProvider to perform controller discovery.
* Changed controller discovery to use application parts.
* Changed ControllerActionDescriptorProvider to make use of Application parts.
* Simplified AddControllerAsServices to not accept any parameter and perform
controller discovery through the ApplicationPartManager in the IMvcBuilder
and IMvcCoreBuilder. Assemblies should be added to the ApplicationPartManager
in order to discover controllers in them.
This change renames IPropertyBindingPredicateProvider to
IPropertyFilterProvider. The changes here are mostly renames of
parameters/variables from predicate -> propertyFilter. I did a
find+replace and left the term 'predicate' in some of the docs because it
refers to a predicate in the abstract sense.
This change also simplifies BindAttribute and removes support for type
activation.
This commit introduces application parts as a concept on MVC.
An application part is an abstraction that allows you to expose some
feature or corncern in a way that is decoupled from their underlying source.
Examples of this include types in an assembly, emdeded resources, files on
disk etc.
Application parts are configured during startup by adding or removing them from
the application part manager available as part of IMvcBuilder and IMvcCoreBuilder.
The application part manager provides the ability to populate features from the
list of available application parts by using a list of application feature providers.
Application feature providers are responsible for populating a given feature given a
list of application parts.
Examples of application providers can be a ControllerFeatureProvider
that goes through the list of application parts, sees which one of those parts exposes types,
determines which of those types are controller types, and adds them to a ControllerFeature
that holds a list of all the types that will be considered controllers in the application.
* Introduce ControllerAttribute and use it to mark base classes as controllers.
* Changed rules for controller discovery to:
* All controller types must be public, concrete, non open generic types.
* NotController attribute is not applied to any type oif the hierarchy.
* The type name ends with controller.
* Controller attribute is applied to the type or to one of its ancestors.
This change no longer suppresses validation for IFormFile and
IFormFileCollection model values. This will allow the use of [Required] on an
IFormFile model, or a custom attribute for validating IFormFileCollection.
These types already have ValidateChildren = false, so we don't recurse
into them.
This change separates model binding into IModelBinderProvider (decides
which binder to use) and IModelBinder (does binding). The
IModelBinderFactory is a new services with coordinates the creation of
model binders.
- #3482
- see new tests; many failed without fixes in the product code
- add support for binding `IFormFileCollection` properties
- make `FormFileModelBinder` / `HeaderModelBinder` collection handling consistent w/ `GenericModelBinder`++
- see also dupe bug #4129 which describes some of the prior inconsistencies
- add checks around creating collections and leaving non-top-level collections `null` (not empty)
- move smarts down to `ModelBindingHelper.GetCompatibleCollection<T>()` (was `ConvertValuesToCollectionType<T>()`)
- add `ModelBindingHelper.CanGetCompatibleCollection()`
- add fallback for cases like `public IEnumerable<T> Property { get; set; } = new T[0];`
- #4193
- allow `Exception`s while activating collections to propagate
- part of #4181
- `CollectionModelBinder` no longer creates an instance to check if it can create an instance
- not a complete fix since it still creates unnecessary intermediate lists
nits:
- correct a few existing test names since nothing is not the same as `ModelBindingResult.Failed()`
- remove a couple of unnecessary `return` statements
- correct stale "optimized" comments
- explicit `(string)`
- aspnet/Coherence-Signed#187
- remove `<RootNamespace>` settings but maintain other unique aspects e.g. `<DnxInvisibleContent ... />`
- in a few cases, standardize on VS version `14.0` and not something more specific
- unrelated to #3482 except that I discovered the issue while investigating that issue
- tests previously set `BindingDetails.IsReadOnly` for a `Type` and that was ignored
- same for `DictionaryModelBinderTest`
This undoes a behavior change introduced in
7b18d1d3f1.
The intent was to have ClearValidationState do the right thing for a case
where a collection was bound to the empty prefix, and then used again with
TryUpdateModel.
This change was implemented by saying that a key like "[0].Foo" is a match
for the prefix of "Foo". This isn't really right, and it's only
interesting for the ClearValidationState case.
The problem is that we don't know what the keys look like for a
collection. We can assume that they start with [0] but that's not really a
guarantee, it's a guess.
This change fixes the behavior of StartsWithModel, and move the
responsibility for this case back into ClearValidationState.
This change also removes the call to ClearValidationState from
TryUpdateModel. If you need this behavior, then call ClearValidationState
manually. Trying to bind and then re-bind a model object isn't really what
we intend.
