Why is EditorFor in my ASP.NET MVC 2 application throwing ArgumentNullException?

I have a weird problem with EditorFor in one of my views. The following code throws an ArgumentNullException.

<%: Html.EditorFor(x => x.Name) %>

However, the following code is fine.

<%: Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Name) %>

Model.Name is a string variable - and it's set.

EditorFor works in another view - until this view crashes, at which point then I have to restart the development web server (Cassini) or all the EditorFor calls crash with the same message.

I ran a test with the MVC 2 source, hoping I could get some insight, but that worked OK! Presumably the MVC 2 RTM source on there should be the one in VS2010 (dates seem to tie in).

I've just switched to TextBoxFor, as that's fine - but I'd like to know what the issue is. I'm running under .NET 4, VS2010 and Win7 x64.

[Update: same issue occurs with DisplayFor.]

Partial stack trace is:

What does the Editor template look like for the property you are passing? (I assume x.Name is a string, so you should have a template called String.ascx in Views/Shared/EditorTemplates).

It likely the editor template that is getting loaded for string does not like a null string being passed.

If you don't have a custom editor template for string (and all you want is a basic textbox), then there is no reason to use EditorFor.
