What is MVC model binding for complex types?

Can you explain what MVC model binding is, especially for complex types?

MVC model binding is a process in ASP.NET MVC that maps data from HTTP requests to action method parameters, including complex types.

What are complex types in this context?

Complex types are objects that contain multiple properties or fields, often representing a structured data model.

How does model binding handle nested complex types?

Model binding can automatically bind nested complex types by matching the names of the properties in the request to the properties of the model.

Can you give an example of how this works?

Sure! If you have a model with a property that is another model, the binding will look for properties in the request that match the nested model's properties.
