asp.net mvc 4 - MVC 4 Binding to a dictionary -

i have looked around on internet, none of solutions seem work me.

i have following view model:

public class configsviewmodel {     // ios dictionary     public dictionary<string, object> iosdictionary { get; set; }         // android dictionary     public dictionary<string, object> androiddictionary { get; set; }  } 

the values in these dictionaries either bool or strings. want display table editing view, , want bind these dictionaries. view looks this:

@model mobilerebrandingtool.models.viewmodels.configsviewmodel

<div>     @using (html.beginform("saveappconfig", "project", "post"))     {         <table class="config-table">             <tr>                 <th></th>                 <th>ios</th>                 <th>android</th>             </tr>             @foreach (var kvp in model.iosdictionary)             {                 <tr>                     <td>                         @kvp.key                     </td>                     <td>                         @html.editorfor(model => model.iosdictionary[kvp.key])                     </td>                     <td>                         @if (model.androiddictionary.containskey(kvp.key))                         {                             @html.editorfor(model => model.androiddictionary[kvp.key])                         }                     </td>                 </tr>             }         </table>         <input type="submit" value="save"/>         } </div> 

the problem in saveappconfig action, when check model, instead of string value keys in dictionaries, value array of 1 string (the value in text input). in dictionaries have values bools , strings, cannot use textboxfor. there better way bind dictionaries? should write custom binder? , if so, how should like?

thank you,

cosmin

since in foreach need pull value little differently

@foreach(var kvp in model.iosdictionary){     @html.editorfor(model => model.iosdictionary[kvp.key]) } 

should like

@foreach(var kvp in model.iosdictionary){     @html.editorfor(model => kvp.value) } 

i not 100% sure can kvp.value. looked iterating through dictionary , found what best way iterate on dictionary in c#?
