New Sample: Client-side data validation for user input about windows-universal-samples HOT 10 CLOSED

I need this demo too. I saw this feature on msdn, but there have not any documents.

@h82258652 I looked more into it on VS 2015 RC, and the properties aren't even available. But, as you said, it's mentioned in What’s new for developers in Windows 10.

Thanks, I can not find these classes on VS 2015 RC either. But I had been seen them on VS 2015 CTP6. Maybe MS remove this feature now?
Hopefully this feature can come back in the official Win 10 version. Validate input is necessary. Just like the model validation in asp.net mvc.

FYI, patterns & practices has some good guidance on implementing validation yourself, but it will sure be nice to have it built in.

Emm, great article. But I think this:

<TextBox x:Name="FirstNameValue"
         Grid.Row="2"
         Text="{Binding UserInfo.FirstName, Mode=TwoWay}">
    <interactivity:Interaction.Behaviors>
        <quickstartbehaviors:HighlightFormFieldOnErrors PropertyErrors="{Binding UserInfo.Errors[FirstName]}" />
    </interactivity:Interaction.Behaviors>

</TextBox>

can be more better. We write "FirstName" twice. The validation system should know what property we are binding.
I found this method on msdn: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms598124(v=vs.110).aspx
This method is also available in WPF and Windows Runtime.
We pass a dependency property to this method, if this dependency property is binding now, it will return a object which contains binding path, binding source and etc.
Maybe we can use this to build our validation framework.

This topic is increasing in scope, I've reached out to the owners of this API to respond on this thread specifically about samples in this area. I recommend moving the more in-depth discussion to the Developing Universal Windows apps forum - https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsapps/en-US/home?forum=wpdevelop

@AdamBraden
So MS decided to remove this feature?

I've reached out to the owners of this API to respond ... about samples in this area.

Thank you.

Hi @bricelam thanks for this note. Unfortunately, yes these features for validation will not make it in the final release for Windows 10 right now. We had some good initial feedback from customers that we weren't delivering the expectations and we want more time to get this right before delivering something that wasn't going to meet customers needs primarily. This remains on our backlog for prioritizing against ongoing/new customer requests.

Thanks you.
Emm, I‘m trying now, but resolve the binding path to property is difficult.
