Next Wave of Microsoft Office Products Will Redefine How People Work
Q&A: Chris Capossela, senior vice president of Microsoft’s Information Worker Product Management Group, discusses what people and businesses can expect from the upcoming release of Microsoft Exchange Server, Office, SharePoint Server, Visio and Project.
Microsoft SharePoint “14” is now Microsoft SharePoint 2010
MOSS acronym goes away with the new name since Office is no longer in the SharePoint official name… The primary reason why we took Office out of the name – lots of folks associate the name Office with the Office client. We wanted to take the opportunity to reestablish the Office name and brand to be synonymous with the client suite. I say “Give the people what they Want” so everyone should immediately think of Microsoft Office = Office apps.

Lifecycle events of a Sharepoint Connectable WebPart wih a single ViewState backed property:
On Page Load
- Constructor
- OnInit
- OnLoad
- ConnectionConsumer method is called if web part is connectable (sets the connection providers interface in the webpart)
- CreateChildControls
- OnPreRender (if your web part is connectable you would typically call the connection provider here to retrieve data)
- SaveViewState
- Render
- RenderChildren
- RenderContents
On 1st Postback
(PostBack click handler sets ViewState via public Property)
- Constructor
- OnInit
- CreateChildControls
- OnLoad
- PostBack click handling
- ConnectionConsumer method is called if web part is connectable (sets the connection providers interface in the webpart)
- OnPreRender (if your web part is connectable you would typically call the connection provider here to retrieve data)
- SaveViewState
- Render
- RenderChildren
- RenderContents
On 2nd Postback
(PostBack click handler sets ViewState via public Property)
- Constructor
- OnInit
- LoadViewState
- CreateChildControls
- OnLoad
- PostBack click handling
- ConnectionConsumer method is called if web part is connectable (sets the connection providers interface in the webpart)
- OnPreRender (if your web part is connectable you would typically call the connection provider here to retrieve data)
- SaveViewState
- Render
- RenderChildren
- RenderContents
Note that during the 2nd postback, LoadViewState, is called, since in the 1st postback the click handler sets the value of the ViewState backed public property.
