Namespace: System.Web.Mvc
Assembly: System.Web.Mvc (in System.Web.Mvc.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Protected Friend Function TryValidateModel ( _
model As Object, _
prefix As String _
) As Boolean
protected internal bool TryValidateModel(
Object model,
string prefix
)
protected public:
bool TryValidateModel(
Object^ model,
String^ prefix
)
Parameters
- model
Type: System.Object
The model to validate.
- prefix
Type: System.String
The prefix to use when looking up values in the model provider.
Return Value
Type: System.Boolean
true if the model validation is successful; otherwise, false.
Remarks
When a model is being validated, all validators for all properties are run if at least one form input is bound to a model property.
The TryValidateModel is like the ValidateModel method except that the TryValidateModel method does not throw an InvalidOperationException exception if the model validation fails.
