- You can validate user-input data in ASP.NET MVC using data attributes on model properties and custom validation attributes. Data attributes like Required, Range, StringLength allow property-level validation, while custom attributes can perform cross-field and custom validation logic.
- Client-side validation is enabled by default and prevents invalid submissions, but server-side validation in the controller is also needed as the only authorization. You can customize validation error messages and UI.

Resolve dependency of dependencies using Inversion of Control and dependency ...Akhil Mittal
In my last two articles I explained how to create a RESTful service using ASP.NET Web API working with Entity Framework and resolving dependencies using Unity Container. In this article I’ll explain how to create a loosely coupled system with Unity Container and MEF(Managed Extensibility Framework) using Inversion of Control. I’ll not be explaining much theory but rather focus more on practical implementations. For the readers who are following this series, they can use their existing solution that they have created till time. For my new readers of this article, I have provided the download link for the previous source code and current source code as well.
For theory and understanding of DI and IOC you can follow the following links: Unity and Inversion of Control(IOC).
SQLite is an embedded SQL database that contains a C library. It is not a client-server database and instead embeds directly into the end program. SQLite follows PostgreSQL syntax. To connect with SQLite from Python, you import the sqlite3 module and use the connect() method to create a Connection object. From there you can create a Cursor object to execute SQL statements like CREATE TABLE, INSERT, SELECT, WHERE, ORDER BY, UPDATE, and DELETE.
This document provides an introduction to Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) in Excel. It explains how to add the Developer toolbar to access VBA features in Excel. It then describes the Excel VBA development environment and how to write simple macros to automate tasks like formatting cells. Examples are provided of recording macros to demonstrate how VBA code is generated. The document emphasizes that recorded macros contain more code than is needed and that writing your own VBA code results in more efficient macros.
Repository Pattern in MVC3 Application with Entity FrameworkAkhil Mittal
The document discusses implementing a repository pattern in an MVC application using Entity Framework. It begins with an introduction and roadmap of previous articles. It then discusses the benefits of a repository pattern in abstracting the data access layer from business logic. Steps are provided to create a sample repository interface and class to implement basic CRUD operations on a User entity, abstracting the data access code from the controller. The repository class uses the Entity Framework context to perform operations while resolving tight coupling issues between layers. It concludes that while this implementation works for a single entity, a generic repository will be needed to cleanly support multiple entities without duplication.
An assembly in .NET is a collection of types and resources that form a logical unit. Assemblies can contain metadata about types using attributes. Attributes provide additional information that can be attached to classes, methods, and other members. There are built-in attributes in .NET and custom attributes can be created by deriving from the Attribute base class. Built-in attributes like Required and StringLength are used to validate model data in ASP.NET MVC. A custom MyLicenseAttribute was created to require a license key by applying the attribute to assemblies. Attributes help add metadata and customize behavior.

ASP.NET MVC provides separation of concerns, extensibility, and testability advantages compared to other frameworks. It has a learning curve and is more complex. The MVC pattern uses models to manage data and business logic, views for presentation, and controllers to handle user input and response. Model binding maps user input to model properties using value providers and model binders. Data annotations provide validation attributes. Views are rendered using layouts and can pass data and render partial views. Razor syntax combines HTML and C# code in views. Security concerns include XSS and CSRF prevention.
The document discusses various HTML form elements and attributes. It describes common form controls like text fields, checkboxes, radio buttons, select boxes, buttons and file uploads. It explains how to create forms using the <form> tag and how to structure inputs using tags like <input>, <select>, <textarea> and <button>. The document also provides details on attributes for each form control that specify properties like name, value, type and more.
How to Build Dynamic Forms in Angular Directive with a BackendBackand Cohen
In this blog we will demonstrate how to build dynamic forms in Angular with a backend, that in the end will return the configuration and data. This code was created for anyone who needs to build a complex project with many forms. To demonstrate the server side we will use Backand’s REST API in addition to referencing the full code in GitHub.
ASP.NET MVC provides separation of concerns, extensibility, and testability compared to other frameworks. However, it has a steeper learning curve and is more complex. Model binding maps form and query string values to model properties. Data annotations provide validation attributes and metadata. Views are rendered using Razor syntax which allows mixing HTML and C# code.
HTML5 includes many new features for forms that make them easier to create and more powerful. It introduces new form controls like number, range, date, time, color pickers as well as new attributes for validation and user experience improvements. While support is still limited, as browsers implement these new standards forms will work more consistently across devices and enable more semantic data collection.

While support is still limited, these new features provide standardized ways to build complex forms without JavaScript.
HTML5 includes many new form features to improve the consistency and capabilities of web forms. Some key additions include new form controls like number, range, date, and color pickers. It also adds new attributes to improve the user experience, such as placeholder text, autofocus, restricting input values with min/max, and step controls. Browsers can now perform native form validation using features like required fields, input type validation, and custom patterns. However, support varies across browsers and older browsers may not support all new features.
The document provides an overview of MVC 4.0 and various MVC concepts and techniques including:
- Unit testing in MVC using interfaces to create loosely coupled components and mocking frameworks.
- Exception handling in MVC using the OnException method and HandleError attribute to catch exceptions.
- Routing in MVC using the default route and custom routes added to the route table.
- Navigation structures in MVC using the MVC Site Map Provider which allows specifying controllers and actions in site maps.
- Styling MVC applications using layouts to define common templates applied to views.
- Implementing AJAX in MVC to update individual sections of a page without reloading using
The document summarizes validation in Wheels, an open-source Model-View-Controller framework for ColdFusion. It discusses setting up validation with three elements: a model file containing business logic, a controller file for creating/saving/updating models, and a view file for displaying inputs and errors. Validation rules are defined in the model's init() method using functions like validatesLengthOf(), validatesPresenceOf(), and custom validation methods. The controller checks if the model saves successfully and either redirects on success or re-renders the form with errors. The view displays errors using helper functions.
Assemblies are the building blocks of .NET Framework ; they form the basic unit of deployment, reuse, version control, reuse, activation scoping and security permissions. An assembly is a collection of types and resources that are created to work together and form a functional and logical unit.
.NET assemblies are self-describing, i.e. information about an assembly is stored in the assembly itself. This information is called Metadata. .NET also allows you to put additional information in the metadata via Attributes. Attributes are used in many places within the .NET framework.

ASP.NET 03 - Working With Web Server ControlsRandy Connolly
This document provides an overview of the different types of server controls in ASP.NET, including their common properties, methods, and events. It describes HTML server controls, web server controls, validation controls, user controls, and custom server controls. It also discusses some common properties like ID, width and font that are shared across most server controls, and how to programmatically manipulate properties and handle events.
This document provides an excerpt from the book "Microsoft Office Excel 2003 Programming Inside Out" which discusses how to create advanced user forms in Excel VBA. It describes building a user form to capture customer information from a worksheet. The form allows the user to enter or edit data, which is validated and stored in the worksheet. It also shows how to navigate between records using buttons and dynamically determine the last row of data. The form keeps track of changes separately until the user saves or cancels them.
Applying Code Customizations to Magento 2 Igor Miniailo
The document discusses applying code customizations to Magento 2 through service contracts. It describes how Magento 2 uses service contracts to define public APIs for business functionality in a module. These service contracts provide a single entry point and enforce consistent behavior. Extensions can customize modules by reimplementing service contracts, adding plugins, or extending data interfaces. This allows customizations to be available for all clients while maintaining backward compatibility of the module's public APIs.
This document discusses forms in web development. It covers creating forms using tags like <form>, <input>, <textarea>, and <select>. It describes how forms accept user input and provide interactivity. The document also discusses server-side processing using CGI to handle form data, and lists some free CGI resources. Key concepts covered include different types of forms, the two components of using forms, and how to invoke server-side processing to handle submitted form data.

I am having trouble writing the individual files for part 1, which is as follows:
part 1
Purpose
This assignment reviews object-oriented programming concepts such as classes, methods,
constructors, accessor methods, and access modifiers. It makes use of an array of objects as a
class data member, and introduces the concept of object serialization or \"binary I/O\".
Set Up
(Yes, these commands are rather tedious to type repeatedly. Part 2 of this assignment introduces
a new technique for compiling and linking your program files called a makefile. Makefiles
require a bit more work up front, but save a lot of typing at the command line once the makefile
has been created.)
As in Assignment 1, you should create a subdirectory to hold your files for Assignment 2.
In that directory, make a symbolic link to the data file for this part of the assignment:
In this assignment, you will be creating several source code and header files, as described below.
You can create each of these files separately using the nano editor, just as you did on Assignment
1.
To compile and link the program you\'ve created, type:
Once you\'ve added the AccountDB class, you should type:
To run the executable file created by the previous command, type:
Program
For this assignment, you will need to write three source code files as well as two header files.
Each of these files is relatively short, but many inexperienced programmers are overwhelmed by
the idea of writing a program as multiple files. \"Where do I start?!!\" is a common refrain. This
assignment sheet attempts to walk you through the steps of writing a multi-file program.
The steps outlined below should not be thought of as a purely linear process, but rather an
iterative one - For example, work a little on Step 1, then a little on Step 2, then test what you\'ve
written (Step 3).
Step 1: Write the CreditAccount class declaration
The CreditAccount class represents information about a credit card account. The code for the
CreditAccount class will be placed in two separate files, which is the norm for non-template C++
classes.
The header file for a class contains the class declaration, including declarations of any data
members and prototypes for the methods of the class. The name of the header file should be of
the form ClassName.h (for example, CreditAccount.h for the header file of theCreditAccount
class).
A skeleton for the CreditAccount.h file is given below. As shown, a header file should begin and
end with header guards to prevent it from accidentally being #included more than once in the
same source code file (which would produce duplicate symbol definition errors). The symbol
name used in the header guards can be any valid C++ name that is not already in use in your
program or the C/C++ libraries. Using a name of the format CLASSNAME_H (like
CREDIT_ACCOUNT_H in the code below) is recommended to avoid naming conflicts.
Data Members
The CreditAccount class should have the following private data members:

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Murach: How to validate data in asp.net core mvc
1. GTC
How to validate data
By : Eng. Mahmoud Hassouna
Email : M.hassuna2@gmail.com
2. GTC
Perspective
• The goal of this chapter is to teach you how to validate the data that a
user
• inputs into an ASP.NET MVC app. Now, if this chapter has worked, you
should
• be able to use client-side and server-side code to validate data. This
includes
• using the data attributes that are provided by MVC as well as creating
your own
• custom data attributes. As usual, there’s always more to learn. Still, this
chapter
• should give you a good foundation for working with data validation.
Terms
• data attribute
• property-level validation
• class-level validation
• remote validation
3. GTC
Summary
• You specify the validation to be applied to a model class by
decorating
its properties with data attributes.
• Code that validates a property of a class is called property-level
validation. Code that validates the entire class instead of
individual
properties is called class-level validation. Class-level validation
only
runs if all the property-level validation has passed.
• Remote validation allows you to write code on the server that’s
called by
the client without reloading the whole page
4. GTC
How data validation works in MVC
1. The default data validation provided by model binding
The action method accepts a Movie object named movie. When the view posts to this
method, MVC binds the values it receives from the view to the Movie object. If MVC can’t bind
a value, it adds a validation message to the Model State property of the Controller class. That’s
why this action method starts by checking whether the Model State is valid. If it is, no errors
occurred during model binding. In this case, the action method redirects to the page that lists
the movies. Otherwise, if errors occurred during model binding, the action method returns the
original view. In addition, it passes the Movie object parameter back to the view. This returns
the values that the user posted. As a result, the view can redisplay them to the user. Also, since
the Model State property contains validation messages, the validation summary tag displays
those messages in red. In this figure, the Movie class doesn’t decorate its properties with any
data attributes. As a result, the code in this figure doesn’t check for required fields or check
whether a value is in range as described in the next figure. However, as described in the
previous chapter, when MVC performs model binding, it casts the data posted by the view to
the parameter type specified by the action method. If this data conversion fails, MVC adds a
message to the Model State property. As a result, this code notifies the user about data
conversions that fail, even though there are no data attributes in the model. For example, the
screen in this figure shows the view after the user enters a string of “four” in the Rating field.
Since MVC can’t cast that string to the int type, the data conversion fails and MVC adds a
message to the Model State property and sets its Is Valid property to false. As a result, when the
action method checks the Is Valid property, its value is false. This causes the view to display the
validation messages and the values the user entered. You can also avoid this error by removing
the type=“text” attribute from the element. Then, the asp-for tag helper will generate a number
field instead of a text field since the Rating property has a data type of int.
5. GTC
How it looks in the browser when the rating
can’t be cast to an int.
Description
• When you use model binding and MVC can’t cast an HTTP request value to the
data type specified by the action method parameter, it adds an error message to the

2.How to use data attributes for validation
The two-argument Range attribute accepts int or double values that specify
the minimum and maximum values of the range. However, the three-argument
Range attribute also accepts a type argument that indicates the type of the
values to compare. For example, the next figure shows how to use this type
argument to compare Date Time values. When you use the type argument, the
minimum and maximum values must be strings. The String Length attribute
checks that the value of a string property doesn’t exceed a specified number
of characters. This attribute accepts an int value that specifies the maximum
number of characters. The Regular Expression attribute checks that the value of
a property matches a regular expression (regex) pattern. It accepts a string
value that’s the pattern to match. Regular expression patterns are beyond the
scope of this book, but you can find many good resources and regex libraries
online. The Compare attribute checks that the value of the property matches
the value of another property in the model. It accepts a string value that
contains the name of the other property. The Display attribute doesn’t check
any values. Instead, it specifies how the name of the property should be
displayed to the user. That includes not only how it’s displayed in a validation
message, but how it’s displayed in a label that’s bound to the property.

3. A Registration page with data validation
The DOB property has a Range attribute that includes a type argument to indicate that the
range is of the Date Time type. Then, it passes two string arguments that indicate the minimum
and maximum dates for the range. This code sets the maximum value to a date that’s in the
distant future to make sure the current date is always before the maximum value. Later, this
chapter presents some techniques for using code to compare a date to the current date.
Note that the DOB property is of the Date Time? type, not the Date Time type. This is necessary
for the Required attribute to work properly. The Password property has a String Length attribute
that only allows string values of 25 characters or less. This attribute doesn’t include a custom
validation message because the default message is adequate. In addition, text fields and
password fields often prevent the error message from being displayed by not allowing the user
to enter more than the specified number of characters. The Password property also has a
Compare attribute that tells MVC to check that the value of this property matches the value
of the Confirm Password property. This attribute doesn’t include a custom validation message.
That’s because the default message for the Compare attribute is adequate here. The Confirm
Password property has a Display attribute that adds a space to the property name. As a result,
this property displays as “Confirm Password” in the default validation message of the
Compare attribute that decorates the Password property. The second code example presents
the validation and tags in a strongly-typed view that posts a Customer object to an action
method. Here, the tags for the passwords are of the password type. This displays bullets for the
characters.

How to control the user experience
So far, you’ve learned how to use Bootstrap CSS classes to
make messages in a validation summary tag display in red. In
addition, you’ve learned how to add your own validation
messages to a data attribute. In the next few figures, you’ll learn
more skills for controlling how MVC displays validation messages
to the user.
11. GTC
How to format validation messages with CSS
This HTML includes a data-val attribute with a value of “true”. In addition, it includes
several data-val-* attributes that contain information MVC emits for the Required
and Regular Expression attributes that decorate the Name property. When data
validation fails, MVC also assigns a CSS class named input-validation-error to the tag
as shown in the second example. The tags that use the asp-validation-summary tag
helper work similarly. For instance, the third example shows that MVC adds a data-
valmsgsummary attribute to the tag. In addition, if validation succeeds, it assigns the
tag to a CSS class named validation-summary-valid. However, if validation fails, MVC
assigns the tag to a CSS class named validation summary-errors as shown by the
fourth example. You can define style rules for these CSS classes to control how these
tags appear to the user. For instance, the last example presents style rules for all
three CSS classes. For tags that have failed validation, the CSS adds a border that’s
the same color as the Bootstrap text-danger CSS class. In addition, it adds a
background color. The screen at the bottom of this figure shows how such an tag
appears on the page. The last two style rules are for validation summary tags. When
validation succeeds (or when the page first loads), the first style rule sets the display
to none. This hides the tag and prevents it from taking up any space on the page.
Then, if you want, you can include a generic message like this and it won’t be
displayed unless validation fails:

How to check validation state and use code to
set validation messages
The Is Valid property returns false if there are any validation messages.
The Keys property is a collection that contains the names of the form
data parameters that were posted. And the Values property is a
collection that contains the values of those parameters. The second
table in this figure shows two of the methods of the
ModelStateDictionary class. The AddModelError() method adds a
validation message. It accepts two string values. The first argument
specifies the name of the property that’s associated with the
validation message. However, if you want to associate the message
with the overall model, you can pass an empty string to this
argument. The second argument specifies the validation message
itself. The GetValidationState() method returns the validation state of
the specified property.

How to display model-level and property-
level validation messages
The code below the tables shows how to display model-level messages in one place
and property-level messages in another. This action method accepts a Customer
object as an argument. As usual, it uses the controller’s ModelState property to check
whether validation has succeeded. If not, the code adds another message and
associates it with the model. The view has a tag that uses the asp-validation-summary
tag helper. This time, though, the code sets the tag helper to “Model Only” rather than
“All”. This means that the tag only displays model-level messages like the one added
by the action method in this figure. Below the tag, the view includes the tags for the
form. Here, each tag is followed by a tag that uses the asp-validation-for tag helper.
This HTML sets the value of each tag helper to the same property name that’s bound
to the corresponding tag. This means that each tag displays the first property-level
message for the specified property. The screen at the bottom of the figure shows what
the browser displays when validation fails. Here, the page displays the model-level
message that notifies the user that the form contains errors above the form. Then, the
property-level messages that describe how to fix the invalid data for each entry
display to the right of each text box.

How to enable client-side validation
Second, if there’s custom validation on the server, such as the DOB check
shown in figure 11-5, validation can run twice. In other words, after the client
side validation passes, the form posts to the server, and the server-side
validation runs. This can lead to a process where the user gets validation
messages in two different steps, which some users might not like. Whenever
possible, it’s best to let your users know in one step everything they need to
do to fix their data entry. Third, not all of the MVC data attributes work
properly with the jQuery validation libraries. In particular, the Range attribute
doesn’t work well with dates. For example, in the screen at the bottom of this
figure, the user has entered a date of 1/1/1971, which is after 1/1/1900, but
the client-side validation is telling the user otherwise. In a case like this, you
need to use custom validation as shown later in this chapter. When working
with validation, keep in mind that client-side validation is not a substitute for
server-side validation. That’s because a user’s browser might have
JavaScript turned off, or a malicious user might tamper with the JavaScript.
As a result, you should think of client-side validation as a convenience for
your users. You should always validate user input on the server as well
18. GTC
Some caveats to client-side validation
It only works correctly with property-level validation, not model-level
validation.
Any server-side validation doesn’t run until all client-side validation passes.
This can lead to a 2-step process that may annoy some users.
Not all data annotations work properly on the client. In the example below,
for instance, the Range annotation for the DOB field isn’t working as it should.

How to customize server-side validation
1.How to create a custom data attribute
To create a custom data attribute, you code a class that inherits the Validation Attribute class
and overrides its Is Valid() method as shown by the PastDateAttribute class presented in this
figure. It’s a convention to include a suffix of Attribute at the end of the class name. However, you
don’t include that suffix when you decorate a model property. The Is Valid() method of the
PastDateAttribute class starts by checking whether the value it receives is a date. If so, it casts
that value to a Date Time object. Then, it checks whether the date is in the past. If so, the Is
Valid() method returns the Success field of the Validation Result class. If the date isn’t in the past,
the Is Valid() method returns a new Validation Result object that contains an error message. But
first, it builds the message to pass to the constructor of the Validation Result object. To do that, it
checks the Error Message property of the base class

How to pass values to a custom data attribute
The Is Valid() method in this figure starts by making sure that the value it
receives is a date. If so, it casts this value to a Date Time object. After that, it
assigns the current date to a Date Time variable named now and declares
another Date Time variable named from. These from and now variables
define the range of valid dates. The code then uses the Is Past property to
calculate the from variable. If the date is in the past, the code creates a
new Date Time value for January 1 of the current year and assigns it to the
from variable. Then, this code subtracts the number of years in the
numYears variable. So, if the current year is 2020 and the value in numYears
is 25, the from date would be 1/1/1995. Conversely, if the date is in the
future, the code creates a new Date Time value for December 31 of the
current year and assigns it to the from variable. Then, this code adds the
number of years in the numYears variable. So, if the current year is 2020 and
the value in numYears is 25, the from date will be 12/31/2045

How to check multiple properties
The two custom data attributes you’ve seen so far only
check the value of the property they decorate. However, it’s
possible to create a data attribute that checks more than
one property in the model object. For instance, the
RequiredContactInfo data attribute at the top of figure 11-10
checks that a user has entered either a phone number or an
email address. To do that, the code in the Is Valid() method
uses the Object Instance property of the Validation Context
class to return the object that contains the properties being
checked. However, it returns it as the object type, so you
need to cast it to the correct type. In this example, the code
casts the object to the Customer type. To use an attribute
like this, you only need to decorate one of the properties it
validates with the attribute.

Description
The Customer class provides data validation by decorating its
properties with
attributes from the System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations
namespace.
The Customer class uses the Remote attribute to use server-side
code to check if the
email address entered by the user is already in the database.

The Customer class uses a custom MinimumAge attribute to
check if the user is at
least 13 years old.
The RegistrationContext class communicates with a database
named Registration.
To configure it, you must modify the Startup.cs and
appsettings.json files as
described in chapter 4.

• The layout includes the jQuery library at the end
of the <body> tag, though you can
include it in the <head> tag instead if you
prefer.
• The layout calls the RenderSection() method. This
allows individual views to
add additional JavaScript files. It places this
statement after the <script> tag that
includes the jQuery library

Description
The Register/Index view has a Razor section named
scripts that includes the jQuery
validation libraries and the minimum-age.js file. That
way, these JavaScript files are
only loaded for the Registration page, not for other
pages of the app that don’t need
them.
