ASP.NET-MVC-2 – ASP.NET MVC 2 Display Name DataAnnotion from Resource Can’t work properly

public class Person
{
 [Display(ResourceType = typeof(Resources.Labels),Name="First")]
 public string FirstName {get; set ; }
 public string LastName {get; set; }
}

< %: Html.EditorForModel() %>
 <%: Html.EditorFor(m => m) %>
 <%: Html.LabelFor(m => m.FirstName) %>

I am trying to save the model in an MVC 2 project using resource files

I have the following courses…

public class Person
{
 [Display(ResourceType = typeof(Resources.Labels),Name="First")]
 public string FirstName {get; set; }
 public string LastName {get; set; }
}

…and tried to use…

<%: Html.EditorForModel() %>
 <%: Html.EditorFor(m => m ) %>
 <%: Html.LabelFor(m => m.FirstName) %>

…but I get the label’s “FirstName” in all instances. The resource file name is Labels.resx, with the “First” entry, is located in the Properties folder.

After reading a few articles, I believe this should work for .NET 4 (I am using VS2010 RTM and have targeted. NET 4).

Is this useful?

Thanks in advance
