LoadViewState does not fire on a postback event

[Jean Erasmus]

Hi there,

I need some help please. I have created a composite control that have a
collection of items associated with it. Now I want to save this to the view
state of the control, but the LoadViewState method does not get called so I
can get the collection out of the view state.

Does anybody have any idee why this is happening?

Regards,
Jean

Hi Jean,

A very common cause for viewstate to not be loaded it late addition to the
control tree. Is your composite being added dynamically or is it declared at
design-time? What about its childrens?

Hi Victor,

I found the problem. I was using an inherited page class, and the control
was being loaded before the base.OnInit was called.
