I am working on a ASP.NET MVC 4 application and I have difficulty with Binding date to jQuery DatePicker in Edit view of particular controller that having one field say "PurchaseDate" with type DateTime. I have set all date format with Data Annotation. But still it is not working in Edit mode as expected. I am using bootstrap-datepicker.

Please reply if any have proper solution for same. Please refer below code:

[DataType(DataType.Date)]
[DisplayFormat(ApplyFormatInEditMode = true, DataFormatString = "{0:dd-mm-yyyy}")]
public DateTime PurchaseDate { get; set; }

And Edit view as below:

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.PurchaseDate, new { @class = "form-control date-picker", value = Model.PurchaseDate.ToString("dd-mm-yyyy") })

And I am applying bootstrap-datepicker as below:

$('.date-picker').datepicker({ rtl: App.isRTL(), autoclose: true });

$(document).ready(function () {

$(function () {
$("#Date").datepicker();
});
});

@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Date, new { @class = "Date" })
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.Date)

Controller:

[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Edit(string _EditId)
{
if(!String.IsNullOrEmpty(_EditId))
{
int ID = Convert.ToInt32(_EditId);
var objtable = ( select Date from tablename where tbl_Id = ID);
return View(objtable);
}
}

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Edit(model.data obj)
{
// write your Code Here.....
}
