This change removes reflection from validator providers, and instead
relies on cached metadata in in the modelmetadata.
In general this means that our MVPs don't need to cache anything, they
just look at the metadata and create what they need.
In the case of data-annotations, we update the model details provider to
add validation attributes to the modelmetadata. This would allow someone
to replace the DataAnnotationsValidatorProvider, but still use the
metadata in these attributes.
The change to the IModelValidatorProvider api (to use a context) is
intended to minimize allocations. Currently each validator provider needs
to return a list so you end up with N+1 lists (N validators + a final list
to compine them all). This change will let us just create the final list
(and a small context object). This is a very very high traffic API so it
seemed worth doing.
There's also some general massaging of namespaces and file locations.
- #1865
- change `MutableObjectModelBinder` to ignore exact match in value providers
- had an incorrect assumption: don't want exact model name to match since
this binder supports only complex objects
- also ignored `BinderModelName`, value provider filtering, et cetera
- reduces over-binding e.g. `[Required]` validation within missing properties
also add more tests of #2129 scenarios
- #2129
- do not propagate results with `!IsModelSet`, allowing empty prefix fallback
- adjust `ComplexModelDtoModelBinder` to at least fake-bind all properties
- default values not consistently picked up otherwise
nit: correct 2 test names in `KeyValuePairModelBinderTest`
- use named parameters more often
- add more comments about returned `ModelBindingResult`
- clean up `ModelBindingResult` doc comments
- cleanup `using`s
Nits:
- cleanup trailing whitespace
- change `retVal` -> `result` in `KeyValuePairModelBinderTest`
- Updated some naming bits that were still using the ViewStart name.
- Updated MvcRazorParserTests to test more cases of the parser, especially with @tagHelperPrefix.
#2110
- Updated some naming bits that were outdated (referring to ViewStart).
- Added a TagHelperDirective merging mechanic to ensure user file descriptors and inherited descriptors come together correctly.
#2110
These model binders don't have any per-request state so there is no need
for them to be type activated. In one case the model binder actually does
its own caching which is being defeated by the fact that we register it as
type activated.
More changes to come in this area.
- Any Action<ITagHelper, ViewContext> can be registered in DI to allow setting of tag helper properties after any [Activate] properties are set but before their bound from the source document and the tag helper is executed
- Removed previous tag helper options as initializers is the way to do this now
