Custom ExpressionBuilder + ParseControl. No Joy? [modified]

mgkr

Using a custom ExpressionBuilder doesnt seem to work with ParseControl (dynamically adding controls, that are using the custom ExpressionBuilder) Works fine with the build-in Resources ExpressionBuilder though. Anyone have a solution/workaround for this? Or even an explanation for why it doesnt work. Example

protected void Page\_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
  string s = (@"
    <hr />
    1: <asp:Label ID=""Label1"" Text=""<%$ Resources:language, Greeting %>"" runat=""server"" />
    <br />
    2: <asp:Label ID=""Label2"" Text=""<%$ IHLPResource:Greeting %>"" runat=""server"" />
    <hr />
  ");

  Control ctrl = ParseControl(s);
  Page.Form.Controls.Add(ctrl);
}

1: Gets rendered just fine, while 2: fails (no error, the value just doesnt get rendered) ie. the output is:

1: Hi
2:

(2: should say "\\\Output from custom ExpressionBuilder///" - See code below) If I simply add the above to the aspx page, it works fine (ie. my custom ExpressionBuilder is not the cause of failure) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CODE - For quick copy/paste to test yourself -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DynTest.aspx
