System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.compare vs System.Web.Mvc.Compare

Question

MVC 4 Beta project fails to compile after upgrading to .Net 4.5.

This happens due to conflict between System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.CompareAttribute

Answer 1

Using Visual Studio 2013 (MVC 5 project, .NET 4.5) the IntelliSense suggests that System.Web.Mvc.CompareAttribute is deprecated.

I used System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.CompareAttribute and it works fine. It also does the client-side validation!
