What's wrong with Eval()?
The .NET Framwork 2.0 introduces Eval(). Eval() is a shortcut for Container.DataItem(). Since Eval() uses Reflection, it causes overhead. From a optimization standpoint, it is better to use Container.DataItem().
VB.NET
Container.DataItem()
C#
DataReader: ((System.Data.Common.DbDataRecord)Container.DataItem)[]
DataSet: ((System.Data.DataRowView)Container.DataItem)[]
R
VB.NET
Container.DataItem()
C#
DataReader: ((System.Data.Common.DbDataRecord)Container.DataItem)[]
DataSet: ((System.Data.DataRowView)Container.DataItem)[]
R
