One product has been created, so the list shouldn't be empty. Here are the models:
public class Product
{
public int ProductID { get; set; }
public string ManufacturerCode { get; set; }
public int ManufacturerID { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<ProductVariant> Variants { get; set; }
}
public class ProductVariant
{
[Key]
public int ProductVariantID { get; set; }
[ForeignKey("Product")]
public int ProductID { get; set; }
public virtual Product Product { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Color { get; set; }
Can you show complete sample code? I mean how the action look like, how the view look like.

ViewData["ProductID"] = new SelectList(_context.Products, "ProductID", "Product");
Just make it iewData["ProductID"] = new SelectList(_context.Products, "ProductID", "Name");

The weird thing is that the templates don't automatically do this. Any idea on how to go about correcting this from a templating perspective, so I don't have to change it so often in the controllers?

MVC template with select list from parent not working?
May 22, 2016 12:19 PM|Byatis|LINK
Hi!
I'm testing RC2 for my project, however can't seem to get default generated edit template work.
I have two models Product and ProductVariant. When trying to edit Variants through the generated code I've got error:
"NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Rendering.MultiSelectList.Eval(Object container, String expression)"
One product has been created, so the list shouldn't be empty. Here are the models:
public class Product
{
public int ProductID { get; set; }
public string ManufacturerCode { get; set; }
public int ManufacturerID { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<ProductVariant> Variants { get; set; }
}
public class ProductVariant
{
[Key]
public int ProductVariantID { get; set; }
[ForeignKey("Product")]
public int ProductID { get; set; }
public virtual Product Product { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Color { get; set; }
}
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Generated code is here:
// GET: ProductVariants/Create public IActionResult Create() { ViewData["ProductID"] = new SelectList(_context.Products, "ProductID", "Product");return View(); }
View crashes on this:
<div class="form-group"> <label asp-for="ProductID" class="col-md-2 control-label"></label> <div class="col-md-10"> <select asp-for="ProductID" class ="form-control" asp-items="ViewBag.ProductID"></select> </div> </div>Project was updated from RC1 but these controllers and views were created by "Add scaffolded items"

Thank you very much. I can't believe I didn't notice that.
Strange though that template generated it like this...
