MVC posting with a list of objects, collection is empty

2018-02-13 02:55 andrewb imported from Stackoverflow

I am making a kind of walkthrough (step 1 > 2 > 3 etc) and one of the last steps is to select an item from a select list.

The view where the user selects from the select list has this model

public class EventAndCompany
{
    public int EventID { get; set; }
    public int CompanyID { get; set; }
}

And the view is

@model Prototypes.Models.EventAndCompany

<div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-4">
        <h2>Step 3. Select questionnaire(s)</h2>
        @using (Html.BeginForm("Step4", "Home", FormMethod.Post))
        {
            @Html.AntiForgeryToken()
            @Html.HiddenFor(m => m.EventID)
            @Html.HiddenFor(m => m.CompanyID)
            <select name="Questionnaires">
                <option value="58926211-517E-4F5E-8E77-6256EC1832F6">Questionnaire 1</option>
                <option value="7477ECB1-C548-4532-9D07-C01DA50A5B2C">Questionnaire 2</option>
                <option value="EBE4D377-BF46-478B-AEF7-E8F853B8632C">Questionnaire 3</option>
                <option value="D94B7639-AF26-4CBE-A792-DCD7AC034BFB">Questionnaire 4</option>
                <option value="46544CFE-75A5-446B-8E6F-DB4E54B86890">Questionnaire 5</option>
            </select>
            <p><input type="submit" class="btn btn-default" value="Submit" /></p>
        }
    </div>
</div>

And the action, they are submitting to, has this method signature

public ActionResult Step4(Models.EventCompanyQuestionnaires model)

And that model is

public class EventCompanyQuestionnaires
{
    public int EventID { get; set; }
    public int CompanyID { get; set; }
    public List<Questionnaire> Questionnaires { get; set; }
}

Questionnaire is

public class Questionnaire
{
    public Guid QuestionnaireID { get; set; }
}

When I submit the form to Step4 action, the Questionnaires model field is initialized, but the Count is 0 and the selected option in the select is not passed to the controller.

    just modify your post action to 

    public ActionResult Step4(Models.EventCompanyQuestionnaires model, Guid Questionnaires)

  • Sitemap List from treeview

    I'm trying to make a sitemap from treeview to show all the title even if the visible is 0.

    the thing is I have a certain page it disable in navigation and I try to show them only in sitemap page.

    I'm using the below code

    @Html.Tree(takeLevels: 10)
  • Form Authentication with Azure Active Directory

    We have an asp.net mvc5 application that stores the users in our on-premises Active Directory and in the application database. We login the user using Identity but first we validate the credentials against both Identity and Active Directory. The following code illustrates that: 

    if (user.IsActiveDirectoryUser)
{
    try
    {
        user = _activeDirectoryService.Validate(userName, password);

   }
   catch (Exception)
   {
       _notfier.Error(T("Problems while connecting with LDAP"));
   }
}
else
{
    user = _identityUserManager.Find(userName, password);


}

if (user == null)
     return Result.Failure<User, Unit>(Unit.Instance);

var identity = _identityUserManager.CreateIdentity(user, DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie);

_authenticationContext.Login(identity, persistCookie);

    We are migrating our application over Azure. We already created and linked our Active Directory with the Azure Active Directory. The implementation of our IActiveDirectoryService was based on PrincipalContext class for Windows Server AD which is useless for Azure Active Directory. We would like to keep the code like it is but give a new implementation to IActiveDirectoryService and perform From Authentication with Azure Active Directory. Is there any way we can do something like:

    azureActiveDirectory.ValidateUser(username, password)?
  • FilePathResult serves file from Temp folder not the path provided

    Using PDFSharp, I have created and successfully saved a pdf file in a specific folder. Then I want to serve this file to the user on the browser upon request. 

      return filePathResult = File(pdfFilePath,
                    MimeMapping.GetMimeMapping(pdfFilePath),
                    string.Format("{0}-data.pdf", userProfile.FullName));

    The user gets open or save file prompt on the browser, but opening the file brings a pdf file that is created on the fly in the /AppData/Local/Temp/data.pdf, which has no content. I have done a lot of work around it, but so far I have not been able to force FilePathResult to serve the PDF file that I have created instead of creating a file in the temp folder and serving it to the user. How can I resolve this issue?
