Question

I have a column inside my sql server 2008 wih type of Decimal(18,2). But on entity framework what is the best data annotation validation I can apply to this pro

Answer 1

For a different approach which some may consider more readable, you can override the OnModelCreating method of your DbContext to set precision, like so:

protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
    {

           modelBuilder.Entity()
                    .Property(x => x.TheProprty)
                    .HasPrecision(18, 2);
    }

Advantage: strongly typed vs custom regular expression

Disadvantage: can't see it on the class with just a scan
