RangeAttribute Class
Designates the minimum and maximum constraints for the associated member.

Namespace: System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations
Assembly: System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations (in System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.dll)
The RangeAttribute type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | RangeAttribute(Double, Double) | Initializes a new instance of the RangeAttribute class with specified double values as the minimum and maximum limits. |
![]() | RangeAttribute(Int32, Int32) | Initializes a new instance of the RangeAttribute class with specified integer values as the minimum and maximum limits. |
![]() | RangeAttribute(Type, String, String) | Initializes a new instance of the RangeAttribute class with the specified minimum and maximum values converted to the specified type. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | ErrorMessage | Gets or sets the non-localizable error message to display when validation fails. (Inherited from ValidationAttribute.) |
![]() | ErrorMessageResourceName | Gets or sets the property name on the resource type that provides the localizable error message. (Inherited from ValidationAttribute.) |
![]() | ErrorMessageResourceType | Gets or sets the resource type that provides the localizable error message. (Inherited from ValidationAttribute.) |
![]() | ErrorMessageString | Gets the localized or non-localized error message. (Inherited from ValidationAttribute.) |
![]() | Maximum | Gets the maximum allowed value for the range. |
![]() | Minimum | Gets the minimum allowed value for the range. |
![]() | OperandType | Gets the type of the Minimum and Maximum values. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals | Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | FormatErrorMessage | Applies formatting to an error message based on the data field where the error occurred. (Overrides ValidationAttribute.FormatErrorMessage(String).) |
![]() | GetHashCode | Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetValidationResult | Determines whether the specified object is valid and returns an object that includes the results of the validation check. (Inherited from ValidationAttribute.) |
![]() | IsValid | Determines whether the specified object is valid. (Inherited from ValidationAttribute.) |
![]() | Match | When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Validate | Determines whether the specified object is valid and throws a ValidationException if the object is not valid. (Inherited from ValidationAttribute.) |
You apply the RangeAttribute attribute to a property when you need to specify minimum and maximum values for the property. A validation exception is raised if the value of the property is not within the minimum and maximum values.
If the value of the property is null or an empty string (""), the value will not fail validation for the RangeAttribute attribute. To validate that the value is not null or an empty string, use the RequiredAttribute attribute.
The RangeAttribute class provides the RangeAttribute(Int32, Int32) constructor to specify integer values for the range, and the RangeAttribute(Double, Double) constructor to specify double values for the range. The RangeAttribute class provides the RangeAttribute(Type, String, String) constructor to specify range values that are not integer or double values by enabling you to provide the type for the minimum and maximum values. The type must implement the IComparable interface. For example, to validate a property against a range of decimal values you must provide the type of the Decimal structure and two string values that will be converted to decimal values.
