I have two editor templates: one for decimal, and one for decimal? (nullable)
But when I have a nullable decimal in my model, it tries to load the normal decimal editor:
<%: Html.EditorFor(model => model.SomeDecimal )%>
<%: Html.EditorFor(model => model.SomeNullableDecimal )%>
The first one works fine, and loads the decimal editor template. The second one also tries to load the decimal template (and fails because it is not a decimal field).
The error message is:
The model item passed into the dictionary is null, but this dictionary requires a non-null model item of type 'System.Decimal'.
My templates are declared like this:
Decimal template:
<%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<System.Decimal>" %>
Nullable Decimal template:
<%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<System.Decimal?>" %>
I know that I can make it work by passing in the template name, eg
But I would really prefer it to just work automatically by using the type just like all the other templates.
<%: Html.EditorFor(model => model.SomeNullableDecimal, "NullableDecimalTemplate" )%>
