* Cleanup InferParameterBindingInfoConvention
* Infer BindingSource for collection parameters as Body. Fixes https://github.com/aspnet/Mvc/issues/8536
* Introduce a compat switch to keep 2.1.x LTS behavior for collection parameters
* Do not infer BinderModelName in InferParameterBindingInfoConvention
- #7413 part 2 of 2
- add `ModelMetadata.Name` and `ParameterName`
- use `Name` instead of `PropertyName` in most cases
- update `ModelMetadata.ContainerType` and other property use
- choose using `MetadataKind` almost everywhere; support all possibilties
- usually parameter metadata was possible but not handled
- worst case was one or two potential NREs, especially `ContainerType.*` dereferences
- improve `MvcCoreLoggerExtensions` metadata handling
- add three new debug messages, one for type metadata and two for parameter metadata
- update `ModelMetadata.ContainerMetadata`, `ContainerType` and `PropertyName` doc comments
- no changes needed in Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.ViewFeatures because parameters aren't viewed
nits:
- add missing `TestModelMetadataProvider.ForParameter(...)` method
- remove unused `EmptyModelMetadataProvider` instances in `ModelMetadataTest`
- refactor `ModelValidationResultComparer` out of DataAnnotationsModelValidatorTest`
- take VS suggestions, mostly related to variable inlining and object initializers
- #6076
- add resources and accessors specifically for the element / parameter cases
- avoid `metadata.GetDisplayName()` where possible
- fill in the `ValidationContext` that `ValidatorObjectAdapter` uses
- e.g. `Validate_NestedComplexType_IValidatableObject_Invalid()` test fails without this
Possible future work:
- improve error message used for `ModelMetadata.IsRequired` elements and parameters
- use something besides the type for `ValidationContext.DisplayName` of elements and parameters
nits:
- trailing whitespace
- use more `out var`
- #5642
- lazy-load `ValidationEntry.Model`
- avoids `Exception`s when moving to a property that will not be validated
nits:
- remove duplicate code in `ValidationVisitor`
- clarify "all properties of" doc comments
- also add missing `<param>` doc in `ViewDataInfo`
- #1999
- may have reordered the precedence comments as I double-checked the implementations
- `CheckBox()` and `RadioButton()` were examples of such updates
nits:
- use SSL in documentation links
- simplify mentions of format strings
- remove a few phrases that didn't say much and duplicated `<remarks>`
- #4988
- preserve whitespace as the setting demands
- correct previous `string.IsNullOrEmpty()` call to match previous `ValueProviderResultExtensions.ConvertTo()` use
- short-circuit other `string`-to-`string` conversions (as `ValueProviderResultExtensions.ConvertTo()` does)
- correct documentation of `ConvertEmptyStringToNull` properties
- add more tests of these scenarios and remove duplicate `BindModel_ValidValueProviderResult_ConvertEmptyStringsToNull()` test
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 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.
- standardize on the `Type` extension method; less verbiage
- `ModelMetadata` had a redundant `IsAssignableFrom()` call
- `ModelBindingHelper.ValidateBindingContext()` over-engineered and used just once
- do useful bit inline in `KeyValuePairModelBinder` but now a silent "does not apply" case
