Resharper 5

Yesterday I installed the EAP build of Resharper 5.  Once of the cool features I’ve found is that it adds support for the Microsoft Source Server to VS2005.

If you navigate to a type that is in MS code it will go off and download the reference source.

Then you get taken to that type in the reference code.

Playing with Asp.Net MVC Preview 2

Having played with xVal with MVC 1 I was interested to see the built in client side validation added to the MVC2.

After a little bit of searching and playing around I got the page set up.

 

   1: <script type="text/javascript" src="../../Scripts/jquery-1.3.2.js"></script>
   1:  
   2: <script type="text/javascript" src="../../Scripts/jquery.validate.js">
   1: </script>
   2: <script type="text/javascript" src="../../Scripts/MicrosoftMvcJQueryValidation.js">
</script>

   2:  

   3:     <h2><%
   1: = Html.Encode(ViewData["Message"]) 
%></h2>

   4:     <p>

   5:         To learn more about ASP.NET MVC visit <a href="http://asp.net/mvc" title="ASP.NET MVC Website">http://asp.net/mvc</a>.

   6:         <%
   1: = Html.ValidationSummary("Create was unsuccessful. Please correct the errors and try again.") 
%>

   7:         <%
   1:  
   2:             Html.ClientValidationEnabled = true; 
%>

   8:         <%
   1: using (Html.BeginForm())
   2:           {
%>

   9:           <%
   1: =Html.EditorForModel() 
%>

  10:            <input type="submit" value="Save" />

  11:         <%
   1: } 
%>

  12:     </p>

Using this simple class as the model.

   1: using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;

   2:  

   3: namespace MvcApplication6.Models

   4: {

   5:     public class Address

   6:     {

   7:         [Required(ErrorMessage = "The House Number or Name field is required")]

   8:         public string HouseNumberName { get; set; }

   9:         [Required]

  10:         public string Street { get; set; }

  11:  

  12:         [Required]

  13:         public string City { get; set; }

  14:  

  15:         [Required]

  16:         public string PostCode { get; set; }

  17:     }

  18: }

Gave me this result.

I’m not sure about having the <%  Html.ClientValidationEnabled = true; %> line, it doesn’t feel right.  I’m also not sure about the usefulness of Html.EditorForModel() I need to poke around a bit more and see if there is some way of changing the captions.

Apart from that it seems pretty simple.  I would like to see if it can be hooked up to nHibernate validation.
