Question

is there a way to send multiple parameters to controller as one parameter?

for example, if I have route:

{controller}/{action}/{languages}

can parameter languages be array of strings?
if it does, how to use it…how to send array to controller and how to parse it in controller method?

thanks
Marko

Answer 1

It may be worth you looking up Mvc.Net Model Binding. This is used to pass objects (rather than primitives) through to a controller simply by naming the fields you’re sending with a common prefix.

Example here:

To create an array of objects, you’d name the fields Person[i].Surname, etc and it will build person objects for you and place it in an array, assuming the Controller action is set up to accept one.
