My question is the following:

Is there any chance to avoid hardocode the string to set the ErrorMessage=".."?

[Required(ErrorMessage="My message harcoded")]

public int ID { get; set; }

I can't use a method like this, because ErrorMessage only accept a const.

[Required(ErrorMessage = GetErrorMessage())]

public int ID { get; set; }

You can use constants(SomeClass.ConstField), other than that **no** – Sriram Sakthivel Jul 31 '14 at 15:57
You can potentially do something similar to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/356464/localization-of-displaynameattribute (subclassing Required) – Justin Pihony Jul 31 '14 at 15:59
You can use localization resource files. [Required(ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(Resources.ModelValidation), ErrorMessageResourceName = "MessageKey")] – Satish Jul 31 '14 at 16:03
Really! thanks all for your reply, I really don´t know the ErrorMessageResourceType. – bammanguera Jul 31 '14 at 16:12
