DisplayNameFor() From List in Model

by

This actually works, even without items in the list:

@Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.Names[0].FullName)

It works because MVC parses the expression instead of actually executing it. This lets it find that right property and attribute without needing there to be an element in the list.

It’s worth noting that the parameter (model above) doesn’t even need to be used. This works, too:

@Html.DisplayNameFor(dummy => Model.Names[0].FullName)

As does this:

@{ Namespace.Of.PersonNameViewModel dummyModel = null; }
@Html.DisplayNameFor(dummyParam => dummyModel.FullName)
