Remarks

You can associate the CachedReportSource component with a FileDocumentStorage object using the CachedReportSourceBase.Storage property. A file document storage stores generated documents as a set of files in the directory specified by the FileDocumentStorage.DocumentFolder property.

The following code demonstrates how to create a FileDocumentStorage object that stores documents in the %appData% folder.

C#

using DevExpress.XtraPrinting.Caching; 
using System.IO; 
... 
var appDataPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData); 
var path = Path.Combine(appDataPath, "MyApplicationFolder"); 
var storage = new FileDocumentStorage(path); 

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.XtraPrinting.Caching
Imports System.IO
'...
Private appDataPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData)
Private path = System.IO.Path.Combine(appDataPath, "MyApplicationFolder")
Private storage = New FileDocumentStorage(path)
