I had issued with using a ModelStateWrapper in MVC 1 as described here: http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/validating-with-a-service-layer--cs As much as I was able to test my application it still felt like there was a dependency/circular reference with the ModelState, the controller and the service layer. With the new DataAnnotation in M...

Hi there. I read many articles and posts about data annotations. But most of them just simple 'How to use the xxx attribute' articles. But what i did not find is any article on which annotations should be used and why or why not. I mean, its clear that its good to use things like StringLength, Range or Required attributes and it's clear...
I'm creating a DataAnnotations validation attribute for matching emails using the same pattern as jQuery (yes, it must have been done before, but I can't find it...) and I'm not sure on exactly what I'm supposed to override and whether methods on the base classes should be called or not. Currently I have this implemnetation: public clas...
Is it best practice to put data validation annotations in the Model or View Model? What are the advantages/disadvantages of one approach over the other?

So I have been using data annotations for my validation in an MVC project and they seem to work in most scenarios. Here are two examples in my current project where they don't seem to fit and I am unsure of the best place to put the validation. 1) I have a Join League page that contains a form where the logged in user enters their t...
I'm trying to write a strongly typed, localizable DisplayNameAttribute, but I can't get it to even compile. What I'd like to do on my viewmodel properties is something like [LocalizedDisplayName<HomeResources>(r => r.WelcomeMessage)] which would basically do the same thing as [DisplayName("Welcome to my site!")] except the message ...

I've been chugging along OK with the use of data annotations made on buddy classes so far. When it comes to a more complex view that requires a custom view model--one that includes a few select lists, for example...would I need to then transfer my validation attributes to the view model class? I was planning to pass the full custom vie...
I was playing with asp.net mvc 2's DataAnnotation validation. It hookup to the client side validation very nicely. I really like that I can just define one sets of rules and be able to user it at both client and server side. I am wondering if it is possible to do it with asp.net form. The following code snippet shows how it is done, an...
