  Cannot retrieve property 'Name' because localization failed. I need to override the retrieving me...

  Nov 23, 2011 03:52 AM|Nobels|LINK

  problem situation:

  Cannot retrieve property 'Name' because localization failed.  Type 'Resources.Resources' is not public or does not contain a public static string property with the name 'Naam'.

  I have this problem in my asp.mvc website.

  for my model i use DataAnnotations. Like this:

  [Display(Name = "Naam", ResourceType = typeof(Resources.Resources))]
  [StringLength(200, ErrorMessageResourceName = "Naam_StringLength", ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(Resources.Resources))]
  public System.String Naam { get; set; }

  Now this works fine if my word 'Naam' exists inside my resource file.

  But is is possible to override this retrieving method.

  Because if it's not inside the resourcefile i can return the resourcename in UPPERCASE for example. (instead of this error above)

  In this case i would like to return NAAM.

  Is this possible ?

  This is my Stacktrace:

  you need to change your resource class and properties to public to make it work
