Question

This is the view:

@model tgpwebged.Models.sistema_DocType
 ...

this model is an entity used with textBoxFor and others html helpers

This is the controller.

public ActionResult AdminSettingAddTipo()
{
    IEnumerable<string> indices;

    using (tgpwebgedEntities context = new tgpwebgedEntities())
    {
        var obj = from u in context.sistema_Indexes select u.idName;
         indices = obj.ToList();
    }

    return PartialView(indices);
}

I have all I need here, I am using a model to create with the view so I am not allowed to send ´indices´ as a model because it´s not allowed to have 2 models in one view.

I don´t want to use ´Tupe´ now a parent view. I just want to know how is the best way to send my IEnumerable to the view.

I was thinking of ViewBag for the last option but I am avoiding ViewBag.

thanks

Answer 1

ViewBag is not a good choice. Create ViewModel using your list and your current Model:

    public class YourViewModel
    {

        public sistema_DocType Type { get; set; }
        public IEnumerable<string> Indices {get;set;}
    }

Hope,it will help.
