  1. POMaking changes to MOVIE list MVC tutorial - Adding a new partial view
    text
    copied!<p>I am following this tutorial to learn basic MVC <a href="http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/create-a-movie-database-application-in-15-minutes-with-asp-net-mvc-cs" rel="nofollow">Movie List Tutorial in MVC</a> I am at the end of the tutorial. Now I want to do my own modification to this tutorial. First, I want to add a new partial view to this movie list view. So in a DIV, I put the following code in the index page that already renders the movie list.</p> <pre><code> @{Html.RenderPartial("_NewPartialView");} </code></pre> <p>For this to work, first in the Models folder, I create a new model class for NewClass.cs. The model folder already has a Movie Model Class.Movie.cs Question1 : Should I be creating a separate Model .cs file for the new partial view or Should I create additional classes in the same Movie.cs file? </p> <p>Then I created a partial view using scaffolding based on the new Model (for now I have the new model in a separate .cs file - meaning I now have two Models one for Movies and one for the NewModel (for partialview). I want this rendered in the original movie list index page as a partial view on the side. </p> <p>I have a MoviesController that has the code</p> <pre><code> public ViewResult Index() { return View(db.Movies.ToList()); } </code></pre> <p>Am I missing anything else? If I try to run this, it is breaking at the line of code</p> <pre><code> @{Html.RenderPartial("_NewPartialView");} </code></pre> <p>and the error message I get at this point of the code is "The model item passed into the dictionary is of type System.Collections.Generic.List<code>1[Project.Models.Movie]', but this dictionary requires a model item of type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable</code>1[Project.Models.NewModel]'.</p> <p>I need some MVC expert guidance in this step of adding a new partial view based on a new model to an existing View/Model. I need help and appreciate any tid bits of information that will help me learn. Thank you</p>
