Controller.ValidateModel Method (Object, String)

Validates the specified model instance using an HTML prefix.

Namespace:  System.Web.Mvc
Assembly:  System.Web.Mvc (in System.Web.Mvc.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Protected Friend Sub ValidateModel ( _
    model As Object, _
    prefix As String _
)
protected internal void ValidateModel(
    Object model,
    string prefix
)
protected public:
void ValidateModel(
    Object^ model, 
    String^ prefix
)

Parameters

  • prefix
    Type: System.String
    The prefix to use when looking up values in the model provider.

Remarks

When a model is being validated, all validators for all properties are run if at least one form input is bound to a model property.

The ValidateModel is like the method TryValidateModel except that the TryValidateModel method does not throw an InvalidOperationException exception if the model validation fails.

For more information model validation, see the entry Input Validation vs. Model Validation in ASP.NET MVC on Brad Wilson's blog.
