Leveraging ASP.NET MVC 2 futures ViewState(blog.maartenballiauw.be)

submitted by maartenba(5845) 2 years, 7 months ago

In my previous blog post, I called something “ViewState in MVC” while it is not really ViewState. To be honest, I did this on purpose, wanting to see people discuss this possibly new feature in MVC 2. Discussion started quite fast: most people do not like the word ViewState, especially when it is linked to ASP.NET MVC. As Phil Haack pointed out in a comment on my previous blog post, I used this foul word where it was not appropriate: "(…) I think calling it ViewState is very misleading. (…) what your serializing is the state of the Model, not the View. (…)" Let’s use this in a practical example.
