ModelMetadata Class

Definition

Provides a container for metadata for a model.

public ref class ModelMetadata
public class ModelMetadata
type ModelMetadata = class
Public Class ModelMetadata
Inheritance
ModelMetadata
Derived

Remarks

The word model is used differently in the context of this class than it is typically used elsewhere. In an ASP.NET Web Forms application, the ModelType attribute of a data-bound control specifies the type of a data element that the data control is bound to. This type is typically referred to as the model, and it typically corresponds to a row in a database table. The properties of the model typically correspond to columns of the table.

A ModelMetadata object can provide metadata for the model itself or for a property of the model, or for a property of a complex property. When the ModelMetadata object pertains to a property, the word model refers to the property, and the word container refers to the model.

For example, the model might be Contact, which has Name and Age properties, and the Name property might be a complex property composed of FirstName and LastName. When the ModelMetadata object pertains to the Contact object, the model type is Contact and there is no container. When the ModelMetadata object pertains to the Name property, the model type is Name and the container type is Contact. When the ModelMetadata object pertains to the FirstName property, the model type is FirstName and the container type is Name.
