    RadChart for Silverlight in ASP.NET MVC Application

    The purpose of this blog post is to show how to incorporate RadChart for Silverlight in an ASP.NET MVC application. Manol has already shown how to do this for ASP.NET and things are not much different for ASP.NET MVC. Let’s start with a simple Silverlight application with a single RadChart.

    Using nested complex objects with ASP.NET MVC editor templates

    This may be common knowledge but I failed to quickly find the relevant info when it hit me. In short the default editor template generated by ASP.NET MVC 2 ignores any nested complex properties of your model. Here is a short example which demonstrates the case:   Model: public class Customer{ public int ID { get; set; } public string FirstName { get; set; } public string LastName { get; set; } public Address Address { get; set; }} public class Address{ public string Street { get; set; } public string City { get; set; }} Controller: public class HomeController : Controller{ // // GET: /Home/ public ActionResult Index() { return View(new Customer { ...

Here they are.
