ObjectDataSource and Caching in .NET 2.0
One of the disappointing limitations in .NET 2.0 beta 2 is
that the ASP.NET ObjectDataSource control only supports
caching when binding to DataSets and DataTables. Since
ObjectDataSource is really intended for binding to domain
objects, that design limitation didn't make much sense to me.
According
to Nikhil Kothari, demi-god of ASP.NET, this limitation is
being addressed for the final release. This is great news!
