ASP.NET MVC 3 is getting closer…

Time goes fast and for the ASP.NET MVC team it even goes faster. I just figured out most of the features inside ASP.NET MVC 2 and version 3 is already showing up.

So what's new in ASP.NET MVC 3?

  • Razor Syntax View Engine - Cleaner view syntax
  • Dynamic View and ViewModel properties - passing data between controllers and views using dynamic rather than a dictionary
  • "Add View" Dialog Box Supports Multiple View Engines - You two can be in this box.
  • Service Location and Dependency Injection Support - Get your DI hooked into controller factories, dependency injection, action filters and View Pages.
  • Global Filters - put filters on the all control methods
  • New JsonValueProviderFactory Class - Model bind directly to JSON-encoded data
  • Support for .NET Framework 4 Validation Attributes and IValidatableObject - Easier validation including validating one property based on another.
  • New IClientValidatable Interface - Discovering at runtime if the client supports validation.
  • Support for .NET Framework 4 Metadata Attributes - Support .NET 4 specific attributes like DisplayAttribute
  • New IMetadataAware Interface - Write your own attributes to contribute to the ModelMetadata creation process.
  • New Action Result Types - HttpNotFoundResult, HttpStatusCodeResult.
  • Permanent Redirect - More easily return 301s for Actions, Routes or any URL.

Help! I accidently enabled HSTS–on localhost

I ran into an issue after accidently enabling HSTS for a website on localhost. This was not an issue for the original website that was running in IIS and had a certificate configured. But when I tried to run an Angular app a little bit later on http://localhost:4200 the browser redirected me immediately to https://localhost . Whoops! That was not what I wanted in this case. To fix it, you need to go the network settings of your browser, there are available at: chrome://net-internals/#hsts edge://net-internals/#hsts brave://net-internals/#hsts Enter ‘localhost’ in the domain textbox under the Delete domain security policies section and hit Delete .
