Where is the event handlers wired up when using AutoEventWireup?

Question

I am trying to track down a bug in a web application, that seems to relate to AutoEventWireup being used. When and how is the events wired up when using AutoEventWireup ?

I know that it happens runtime, but exactly in which framework class/method ? (I am hoping that I will be able to step through the framework code).

At runtime, your .aspx page is parsed, and the result is turned into a class. The wireup is done in this generated class.

John, that is what I thought, but looking at the generated class in Reflector reveals that this is not the case. – driis Aug 17 '09 at 18:48
Is this a Web Site Project, or a Web Application Project? – John Saunders Aug 17 '09 at 18:54
