    Hi Mark,

    I assume that by "use" you mean "write code". Yes, you can write code to both methods.

    I suggest you to debug both methods, then you will find immediately which one is called first.

    Ok. But postLoad would come first, right?

    Did you debug it to find out which method is executed first? Please share the results here. Thanks!
