Upgrading from 2.1 to 2.2
See Release notes of DotVVM 2.2 for complete list of changes.
Breaking changes
1. Session cookies are SameSite
If you use your app in iframe
from a different site, it may stop working because we've changed the cookies to be same-site
. You can implement your own ICookieManager
if you want to provide a cookie without this option.
2. Validation - EnforceClientFormat is enabled by default
If you have a nullable property of a numeric or a DateTime
type edited by the user in e. g. TextBox
, you want to make sure the value is in a correct format. When the user enters a value which cannot be parsed, null
value will be stored in the viewmodel. Since the value is optional, it is a legitimate situation, however the user has no way to easily determine if the value was parsed or not. That's why we introduced the EnforceClientFormat
attribute which will raise a validation error if the value is not in a correct format.
This attribute is now applied by default. We believe it is a reasonable behavior, but new validation errors may be shown on places where they weren't before. We recommend to go through all optional numeric or DateTime properties and making sure the forms in the app were not affected by this change.
