I am trying to get Verification to work correctly on a CodeFirst project. Currently, I am not getting a red textbox, or a popup when the validation should fail. Perhaps there is a switch somewhere that I have not set to trigger the validation.

For example on a Phone Number entity:

        [DataMember]
        [Column("Ext")]
        [Bindable(true, BindingDirection.TwoWay)]
        [Editable(true)]
        [Display(Name = "Ext", AutoGenerateField = true)]
        [StringLength(3, MinimumLength = 3)]
        public string Ext
        {
            get;
            set;
        }

Then in the Textbox, it has the appropriate bindings:

<TextBox IsReadOnly="{Binding IsReadOnly}"
Text="{Binding Item.AreaCode, Mode=TwoWay, ValidatesOnDataErrors=True,
ValidatesOnExceptions=True,                                           UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" />

It seems to me this should be working.

Your binding is to Item.AreaCode.  Does that property have similar validation attributes?

My code was foobar - I was setting the Attributes on the Ext field instead of the AreaCode field.


In any case, it's working now.
