Closed Issue: ValidationResult Returned From IValidatableObject.Validate Is Not Localized In MVC3 [9117]

eilonlipton — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 20:50:51 GMT

Expected: When using IValidatableObject.Validate, a ValidationResult created using a resource value should use the localized version of the resource.
Actual: The default locale string is always returned regardless of the current locale.

Example:
I am using the IValidatableObject.Validate method to verify that two properties match corresponding fields in a view model:

using DataResources = Namespace.For.The.Localization.Resources.IndexViewModel;

public class IndexViewModel, IValidatableObject {

private string _field1_check_value = "foo";
private string _field2_check_value = "bar";

[Required(ErrorMessageResourceName="Validation_Field1_Required", ErrorMessageResourceType=typeof(DataResources))]
[DataType(DataType.Text)]
public string Field1 { get; set; }

[Required(ErrorMessageResourceName="Validation_Field2_Required", ErrorMessageResourceType=typeof(DataResources))]
[DataType(DataType.Field2)]
public string Field2 { get; set; }

public IEnumerable<ValidationResult> Validate(ValidationContext validationContext) {
if (!(Field1.Equals(_field1_check_value) && Field2.Equals(_field2_check_value))) {
string[] memberNames = { "Field1", "Field2" };
yield return new ValidationResult(DataResources.Validation_InvalidCredentials, memberNames);
}
}
}

When the site is viewed using any locale other than the default, the Required validation messages are properly localized. However, the message returned from the Validate method are always in the default locale.

If the Validate method is called directly from a controller action, the correctly-localized error message is returned. As such, I am using the following as a work-around:

[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult Index(IndexViewModel viewModel) {

if (ModelState.IsValid) {
//Do Stuff
return RedirectToAction("Action", "Controller");
}
else {
// The original validation did not properly localize error messages coming from IValidatableObject.Validate.
// Clearing the ModelState and forcing the validation at this point results in localized error messages.
ModelState.Clear();
var errors = viewModel.Validate(new ValidationContext(viewModel, null, null));
foreach (var error in errors)
foreach (var memberName in error.MemberNames)
ModelState.AddModelError(memberName, error.ErrorMessage);
}

return View("Index", viewModel);
}
Comments:

We are not able to reproduce this error. Please make sure that the culture for the request is being set early enough. If it is being set after model binding has occured (which is when validation usually happens), then model binding will use the OS's default culture. One good place to set the culture of the current request is in the Application_BeginRequest event.

How to Provide Feedback

Because we highly value your input on this release version, please do submit feedback. There are two primary means for providing feedback:

The ASP.NET MVC Forum on the ASP.NET Forums site allows you to engage in discussions with other customers and with the ASP.NET MVC product team. This is a great place to ask questions, post comments, and learn more about using ASP.NET MVC.

Unit Test Integration

The ASP.NET MVC Project template (which we'll upload to this project very soon) provides a unit test dialog which allows you to select a unit test framework from a drop down. We are working closely with unit test framework providers to intergrate their frameworks into that drop down. The following is a list of those projects which have installers that integrate with ASP.NET MVC. These projects are run by others in the community, not the ASP.NET team.

Patch Uploaded: #11489

pgambling — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 15:31:07 GMT

pgambling has uploaded a patch.

Description:
Proposed implementation to add an MD5 checksum to the sprite image filename. The feature is enabled by the following setting in "App_Sprites\settings.xml"
<MD5SumInFileName>true</MD5SumInFileName>

When MD5SumInFileName is "true", the generated sprite image filename has the following format: "sprite{sprite number}-{MD5 sum of image}.{file extension}"

Created Issue: Sprite and Image Optimization Framework - Add support for a hash in sprite image filename [9920]

pgambling — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 14:56:56 GMT

Including a hash checksum of the generated sprite in its filename would prevent client browsers from loading an outdated image from the cache.

Use case:
1) Contents of App_Sprites is updated.
2) New combined sprite image and css files are generated
3) Browser downloads the updated CSS file which is minified, combined, compressed, and versioned along with other css files for the site using another library, Combres
4) The CSS still references sprite0.png which was previously cached by the browser.
5) Navigating to the site, loads the updated CSS, but uses an outdated sprite image and thus the sprites are all out of sync until the user actually refreshes the page.

Hi, I have downloaded the WCF REST Starter Kit Preview 2 MSI file. I have installed it. I am also able to refer to the DLLs found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft WCF REST\WCF REST Starter Kit Preview 2\Assemblies. But as soon as I build the project, I get the following error near my using statements:

I have tried cleaning and rebuilding my application and even tried re installing the WCF REST Starter Kit Preview 2 but still no go.

naturalwalker — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 16:03:02 GMT

I run into this issue when testing the MvcMusicStore sample. It is strange as projects generated by the mvc4 wizard work as expected.

Here are the settings:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="~/Account/LogOn" timeout="2880" />
</authentication>

The expected result is:
http://localhost:80/mydir/Account/LogOn?ReturnUrl=%2fau%2fStoreManager%2f

The actual result was:
http://localhost:80/~/Account/LogOn?ReturnUrl=%2fau%2fStoreManager%2f
That is the ‘~’ was not mapped to the application directory.

Here is the workaround:
<appSettings>
<add key="loginUrl" value="~/Account/LogOn" />
</appSettings>

Created Issue: ASP.NET MVC 3 LoadingElementDuration is not working [9879]

stockbreak — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 20:05:11 GMT

Hi,
it seems that the AjaxOptions.LoadingElementDuration attribute is not working as expected. Even if I change its value, the animation is always performed at the same speed.
It seems that jQuery needs an integer in order to set the correct duration value, but the unobtrusive AJAX library is rendering the value as a string.
Looking at the JavaScript code of "jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.js" I have seen this piece of code:

duration = element.getAttribute("data-ajax-loading-duration") || 0;

If I change it to:

duration = parseInt(element.getAttribute("data-ajax-loading-duration")) || 0;

The animation plays correctly. When it's a number, the duration argument in the jQuery show function is supposed to be an integer, not a string.

Please see this question on StackOverflow in order to get more details:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8928671/asp-net-mvc-3-loadingelementduration-not-working

Thanks.
