ASP.NET MVC Data Annotations Validation ErrorMessageResourceType
15,505
Solution 1
It has to be
ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(Resources.Errors)
instead of
ErrorMessageResourceType(typeof(Resources.Errors))
This was a small big damn stupid mistake :D
Hope this helps anyone who had the same problem!
Solution 2
You need to use both ErrorMessageResourceType
and ErrorMessageResourceName
.
[EmailAddress(ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(Resource),ErrorMessageResourceName = "Message_ValidEmail")]

When using Data Annotations Validation, everything works fine until I try to use resources.
Here's the error I get: The name 'ErrorMessageResourceType' does not exist in the current context.
And the code I used:
using System.ComponentModel; using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations; using Microsoft.Web.Mvc; namespace Project.Models { [MetadataType(typeof(LanguageMetaData))] public partial class Language { } public class LanguageMetaData { [Required(ErrorMessageResourceType(typeof(Resources.Errors)), ErrorMessageResourceName = "IdRequired")] public object Id { get; set; } [Required(ErrorMessageResourceType(typeof(Resources.Errors)), ErrorMessageResourceName = "NameRequired")] public object Name { get; set; } public object Flag { get; set; } public object IsDefault { get; set; } } }
I can't find anything wrong with this. Can someone more experienced help me with what's wrong?
Thank you!
