EntityDataSource in another assembly

[Alexander]

I am attempting to add an EntityDataSource for a DbContext that lives in an assembly outside of the one the report resides in.

I get the following error during the "Choose a context (DbContext or ObjectContext)" step of the wizard:

"Unable to resolve the context. Try to restart Visual Studio and check you data model".

Is it possible to add an EntityDataSource for a context in another assembly?

Hi Alexander,

Yes, it is possible to use a Db Context from different assembly for a Telerik Reporting EntityDataSource.
However, there are few issues that have been explained in the Unable to Preview a Report that Uses EntityDataSource forum thread.
Note that although the Wizard is throwing an exception, the report could still be displayed correctly in a viewer (e.g. WinForms viewer).
