MaxLength attribute doesn't work anymore!

To spare the rest of you the headache; MVC 3 does not support the MaxLength attribute any longer.

In stead you can now use the StringLength attribute which also replaces the MinLength attribute through a named parameter.

Some examples:

• Set the maximum string length to 50:
  

     1:  [StringLength(50, ErrorMessage = "{0} has a maximum of {1} characters")]

• Set the maximum and minimum string length:
  

     1:  [StringLength(50, MinimumLength=10, ErrorMessage = "{0} has a maximum of {1} and a minimum of {2} characters")]

Seems you still need to use MaxLength attribute for Entity Framework though.
