Something seems off with the lifecycle of the controller and view during initialization

[4deeptech]

blazormvc/Sample.WebAssemblyNet6/Pages/FetchDataController.cs

Line 21 in 6226bb7

View.Forecasts = _forecasts;

If you change line 21 to bypass having to have a local variable for _forecasts to the following:

View.Forecasts = await Http.GetFromJsonAsync<WeatherForecast[]>("sample-data/weather.json");

Then View is null and the page blows up.

Subsequently, if you create a bUnit test to exercise the FetchDataController, View is always(almost-timing) null in OnInitializedAsync.

I am guessing that the issue here is that the View does not get set until BuildRenderTree runs which happens after the OnInitialized/async calls are made. This also means the OnViewInitialized is called before the OnInitializedAsync completes.

Curious to see what the solution is for the situation.
