[Solved] Grid Row Edit with bool checkmarks ist not logical

[Frank Michael]

I have a Grid Row Edit with bool checkmarks.
If I have not set the checkmark, then the grid issues the error message: Field required.
This does not make sense, because it must be possible to set the checkmark to "set" or "unset" which means true or false.
See attachment.
However my model code does not imply, that it is required:

        public bool Urgent { get; set; }

        public bool Important { get; set; }

Hi Frank Michael ,

Unfortunately, we could not observe the depicted issue. I have attached a simple test project, which implements the aforementioned functionality, for your reference.

That helps me with another problem, but not with the one about Required entry.
I found out in the meanwhile, that other fields are also affected. Required fields are not required while some not required fields are handled like required.
How could I debug that?

Hello Frank Michael ,

Could you reproduce the problems in the sample project? We cannot tell what may have gone wrong unless we reproduce those problems. Also required field validation seems to work as expected in our online demo.

I suggest you try reproducing those issues in the sample project and if successful let us know what to do. Or you can provide a sample runnable project showing the problem you are observing. Since we allow attachments only in support tickets you can use some public file hosting web site (such as mediafire.com or rapidshare.com) in order to send us the sample project.

Hello,

I can not reproduce the problem in the sample you gave me, because if I could, I knew already what the root cause is. Then I would have already nearly solved it.

Also it is difficult to give you my project - thank you for the offer. It is a big project.

What I hoped to get is some debugging instruction like which jQuery/javeScript is executed to validate / generate the validation message or how I can debug in the controller so see what the metadata of the members is and where it comes from.

Hi Frank Michael ,

The validation is built-in. You need to use the ASP.NET MVC source code code if you would like to debug. However I do recommend to try and compare the working sample project with yours to see what the difference is.

Seemingly somebody else had the same problem.

I'll check if that solves mine.

[Frank Michael]

Installing version 2010.416 solved it.

[Frank Michael]

That's strange.
Now that I installed the newer version 2010.3.1027 the problem appears again.
I need to a demo soon.
