Question

I am converting a webforms site to MVC-3 and am trying to pass my UserProfileModel to a view. However; I am deriving my UserProfileModel class from my custom provider

public class UserProfileModel:DFW.Providers.ProfileCommon
{
    public UserProfileModel(string userName,bool IsAuthenticated)
    {
        this.Initialize(userName, IsAuthenticated);

    }

Here is the issue, ProfileCommon is not Enumerable therefore I can’t do a

@foreach (var item in Model) {
}

What is a simple way to make this play nicely with MVC?

Answer 1

There isn’t, the provider model is not great and does not support constructor injection.
