StringLengthAttribute Class

Definition

Specifies the minimum and maximum length of characters that are allowed in a data field.

public ref class StringLengthAttribute : System::ComponentModel::DataAnnotations::ValidationAttribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Field | System.AttributeTargets.Parameter | System.AttributeTargets.Property, AllowMultiple=false)]
public class StringLengthAttribute : System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.ValidationAttribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Field | System.AttributeTargets.Property, AllowMultiple=false)]
public class StringLengthAttribute : System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.ValidationAttribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Field | System.AttributeTargets.Parameter | System.AttributeTargets.Property, AllowMultiple=false)>]
type StringLengthAttribute = class
    inherit ValidationAttribute

Examples

The following example shows how to limit the number of characters in a field. This example works with the ThumbnailPhotoFileName field in the Products table in the AdventureWorksLT database. The field is limited 4 characters by applying the StringLengthAttribute attribute to the partial class that represents the Product entity.

[MetadataType(typeof(ProductMetadata))]  
public partial class Product  
{  

}  

public class ProductMetadata  
{  

    [ScaffoldColumn(true)]  
    [StringLength(4, ErrorMessage = "The ThumbnailPhotoFileName value cannot exceed 4 characters. ")]  
    public object ThumbnailPhotoFileName;  

    [ScaffoldColumn(true)]  
    [StringLength(4, ErrorMessage = "The {0} value cannot exceed {1} characters. ")]  
    public object PhotoFileName;  

}  
<MetadataType(GetType(ProductMetadata))> _   
Public Partial Class Product   

End Class   

Public Class ProductMetadata   

    <ScaffoldColumn(True)> _   
    <StringLength(4, ErrorMessage := "The ThumbnailPhotoFileName value cannot exceed 4 characters. ")> _   
    Public ThumbnailPhotoFileName As Object   

    <ScaffoldColumn(True)> _   
    <StringLength(4, ErrorMessage := "The {0} value cannot exceed {1} characters. ")> _   
    Public PhotoFileName As Object   

End Class  

Remarks

ASP.NET Dynamic Data enables CRUD (Create, Read, Update and Delete) operations in a data model. You can specify the minimum and maximum length of characters for each field when data is being inserted or updated. For character data types, the MinimumLength and MaximumLength properties identify the largest number of bytes that are required in order to store a string.

You can use composite formatting placeholders in the error message: {0} is the name of the property; {1} is the maximum length; and {2} is the minimum length. The placeholders correspond to arguments that are passed to the String.Format method at runtime.

Constructors

StringLengthAttribute(Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the StringLengthAttribute class by using a specified maximum length.
