Hello

I had in mind to use it with "incell" edition, is there any built in custom validation as with the grid, since I can not rely on the model validation?

Thank you very much !!

Hello Sergio,

Please have in mind that the TreeList only supports inline and popup editing:

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/treelist#configuration-editable.mode

I similar approach as the for the Grid can be set using kendo.validator:

Is this documented that one cannot rely on the model validation? I've also tried to mark the field as Nullable(false) in the model but without success.

Is custom validation the only way to go when using ASP.NET?

Best regards,

Hello Carsten,

The TreeList supports model validation. The validation rules in the MVC TreeList are generated based on the data annotations in the edited model. For example, in the TreeList Editing demo, the edited model is declared like this (not visible in the online demo but you can open the demos solution locally on your computer and inspect it):
public class EmployeeDirectoryModel
{
    [ScaffoldColumn(false)]
    public int EmployeeId { get; set; }
 
    [Required]
    [DisplayName("First name")]
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
 
    [Required]
    [DisplayName("Last name")]
    public string LastName { get; set; }
 
    [ScaffoldColumn(false)]
    public int? ReportsTo { get; set; }
 
    public string Address { get; set; }
 
    public string City { get; set; }
 
    public string Country { get; set; }
 
    public string Phone { get; set; }
 
    [Required]
    [Range(0, 9999)]        
    [DataType("Integer")]
    public int? Extension { get; set; }
 
    public string Position { get; set; }
 
    private DateTime? birthDate;
    [DataType(DataType.Date)]
    [DisplayName("Birthday")]
    public DateTime? BirthDate
    {
        get
        {
            return birthDate;
        }
        set
        {
            if (value.HasValue)
            {
                birthDate = value.Value;
            }
            else
            {
                birthDate = null;
            }
        }
    }
 
 
    private DateTime? hireDate;
    [DataType(DataType.Date)]
    [DisplayName("Hire Date")]
    public DateTime? HireDate
    {
        get
        {
            return hireDate;
        }
        set
        {
            if (value.HasValue)
            {
                hireDate = value.Value;
            }
            else
            {
                hireDate = null;
            }
        }
    }

You can try deleting the FirstName or LastName value during editing in the demo or try to apply an Ext value bigger than 9999 and you will see the validation messages show up on blur.
