Mvc Populating Drop Down List From Database

Im pretty new to MVC. Im trying to populate a drop downlist with currencies retrieved from database. What am I doing wrong? @model IEnumerable

Solution 1:

The error says it all. You are returning a collection of Currency as shown by this code

IEnumerable<CommonLayer.Currency> currency

and yet your view expect as a collection of ExchangeRates

@modelIEnumerable<DSABankSolution.Models.ExchangeRates>

so you either change the declaration in your view to

@modelIEnumerable<CommonLayer.Currency>

or return a list of ExchangeRates from your controller method

Solution 2:

Your view expects a strongly typed model of type

IEnumerable<DSABankSolution.Models.ExchangeRates>

However,you are passing

IEnumerable<CommonLayer.Currency>

back to view.
