Hi,
I try to build up the report definition dynamically. The exact report definition depends on the data sent to the contructor (eg, dynamic number of colums). But Telerik Report seems to call the parameterless constructor where we do not have the needed data to build up the report definition. Why do we need a parameterless constructor and why are multiple instances created with the parameterless constructor?
I have an sample ASP.NET MVC 4 project exemplifying this scenario but i cant attach it,
How do i attach a sample project?
Thanks in advance
Tommy

Hi Tommy,
The forum uploads are limited, if you want to attach a project you should open a support ticket.
As to the parameterless constructor - when working in out-proc session, the objects need to be serialized and deserialized, since they are not kept in memory. The XML serialization demands the objects to have parameterless constructor and this is why you need one.
More info: Design Considerations for Out-proc Session State
To pass data to reports, you should only use the Report Parameters and NeedDataSource event.
All the best,
