Hey, I am having problems getting ODBC database impelementation working. If there are any people experienced on this, please help!

RELEASED: System.Web.UI.PageEx v0.1 (Apr 30, 2008)

This is the initial release of the project at a very early stage.

Note that this release is only for ASP.NET 1.x. The database part has not been implemented yet.

I have tested it with a very simple WebForm page that stores several types of data into ViewState; also switched ViewStateMedium/ViewStateStorage/UseADS/SerializationMethod serveral times and there are no problems found.

For those who are new to ADS, please refer to MSDN on NTFS Alternate Data Streams (but, AdsFile.cs uses an undocumented API anyway).
