How to pass list of string from Controller to view in MVC

Introduction

In my previous post i have been learned about pass data from controller to view in MVC. This post contains a list of string value in controller action method and we want to pass that value to MVC View.

lets take a simple Example.

Step-1 : Create a List<String> collection and pass these collection to Dynamic property of ViewBag object.
Step-2: Return View in Controller Index method.
Step-3: Create a view and access dynamic property of ViewBag Object from Controller Index method.

Controller class

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Web;

using System.Web.Mvc;

namespace MvcApplication4.Controllers

{

    public class HomeController : Controller

    {

        //

        // GET: /Home/

        public ActionResult Index()

        {

            ViewBag.country = new List<string>()

            {

                "USA",

                "INDIA",

                "UK"

            };

            return View();

        }

    }

}

View

@{

    ViewBag.Title = "List of string value";

}

<h2>Country List</h2>

<ul>

    @foreach (string  country in ViewBag .country)

    {

        <li>@country</li>

    }

</ul>
