Assume an abstract model like this:

 public abstract class MyClass : BaseEntity
{
    [UIHint("File")]
    public long? DocumentFileId { get; set; }
}

The problem is Cannot resolve template 'File', while there is File.cshtml in View editor templates.

The point is, if I don't define MyClass as an abstract class, error will be solved.

My question is, why editor template can not resolve in abstract classes, and how can I handle it?

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language. One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy. In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
