In my ASP.NET MVC 3 application I have classes like the following:
public class Localization<T>
{
public int VersionID { get; set; }
public T Value { get; set; }
...
}
public class Localizable<T>
{
public Localization<T>[] Name { get; set; }
...
}
Then, I have the following view:
@model dynamic
...
@for (int i = 0; i < VersionCount; i++)
{
...
@Html.Editor(string.Format("Name[{0}.Value", i))
...
}
Now, when I display this view, passing a subclass of Localizable<string> as the model, the textboxes for the strings are rendered, but they are empty. If I replace @Html.Editor(string.Format("Name[{0}.Value", i)) with @InputExtensions.TextBox(Html, string.Format("Name[{0}].Value", i), Model.Name[i].Value), the textboxes are correctly filled with values from the model. However, using TextBox instead of Editor is not an option for me, because I want to use different editor templates for different types of T. So, what am I doing wrong, or is it a bug in MVC, and is there any workaround?
