Extending MvcContrib grid with custom DataAnnotationsModelMetadataProvider
Technorati Tags: .NET,ASP.NET,ASP.NET MVC,MvcContrib,localization In a prior post, I blogged about creating a custom class inheriting from System.Web.Mvc.DataAnnotati... to provide localized display names for my models. I was disappointed to find that the MvcContrib grid doesn't use the metadata provider for column names - it just splits "Pascal-case" property names into words (e.g. "FromDate" to "From Date") if a name hasn't been explicitly assigned. public string DisplayName ......

ASP.NET MVC localization DisplayNameAttribute alternatives: a better way
Technorati Tags: ASP.NET,ASP.NET MVC,localization In my last post, I talked bout creating a custom class inheriting from System.ComponentModel.Displ... to retrieve display names from resource files: [LocalizedDisplayName("Reme... public bool RememberMe { get; set; } That’s a lot of work to put an attribute on all of my model properties though.

ASP.NET Localization: Enabling resource expressions with an external resource assembly
Technorati Tags: .NET,ASP.NET,localization I have several related projects that need the same localized text, so my global resources files are in a shared assembly that’s referenced by each of those projects. It took an embarrassingly long time to figure out how to have my .resx files generate “public” properties instead of “internal” so I could have a shared resources assembly (apparently it was pretty tricky pre-VS2008, and my “googling” bogged me down some out-of-date instructions). It’s easy ......
