PdfWebControlLiteSaveViewState Method

Return Value

Type: Object
View state is the accumulation of the values of a server control's properties. These values are automatically placed in the server control's ViewState property, which is an instance of the StateBag class. This property's value is then persisted to a string object after the save state stage of the server control life cycle. For more information, see ASP.NET Page Life Cycle Overview. When view state is saved, this string object is returned to the client as a variable that is stored in an HTML HIDDEN element. When you author a custom server control with a custom view state, the view state can be managed explicitly with the SaveViewState and LoadViewState methods. For more information, see ASP.NET State Management Overview. For information on implementing a custom session-state provider, see Implementing a Session-State Store Provider.
