System.MissingMethodException: No parameterless constructor defined for this object

Question

I\'m using MVC 2.0 with a Html.ListBoxFor as below:

<% using (Html.BeginForm()) { %>

       \" />

        <%=         


        

Answer 1

This error is coming from the ControllerFactory not the View. It is stating that you don't have a paramerless constructor in your Controller. The DefaultControllerFactory for ASP.NET MVC can only instantiate a Controller with a public parameter less constructor. If you plugin your own ControllerFactory and use some DI/IoC tool you can bypass this limitation.
