Data Annotation Ranges of Dates

Question

Is it possible to use [Range] annotation for dates?

something like

[Range(typeof(DateTime), DateTime.MinValue.ToString(), DateTime.Today.ToString())]

Answer 1

I did this to fix your problem

 public class DateAttribute : RangeAttribute    {       public DateAttribute()         : base(typeof(DateTime), DateTime.Now.AddYears(-20).ToShortDateString(),     DateTime.Now.AddYears(2).ToShortDateString()) { }     } 

Answer 2

Docs on MSDN says you can use the RangeAttribute

[Range(typeof(DateTime), "1/2/2004", "3/4/2004",
        ErrorMessage = "Value for {0} must be between {1} and {2}")]
public datetime Something { get; set;}
