EnableViewState=false and NeedDataSource

[Piyush Bhatt]

I am implementing Grid with EnableViewState=false. And this is what I observed.

When View State is not enabled, NeedDataSource gets called after Page_Load. In NeedDataSource, it rebinds the grid; after that my other events get called which calls .Rebind() method again - after this the NeedDataSource does not get called again.

Desired behaviour would be that Rebind() calls NeedDataSource no matter what - but in above situation I did not observe that.

Is this by design?

I am also trying to achieve Paging with ViewState=false. Do you have any example ready to do that? Because I have seen many people posting about this problem on your site. It would be nice to have this example online.

Thanks,
Piyush
