Remarks

Do not use this method. Instead, implement the reporting controllers explicitly. For more information, review the following document: Breaking Change T1019255.

To implement custom controllers, inherit from the base controller class and specify a custom route.

The following table lists base controller classes that process requests from reporting components, default routes, and methods that allow you to specify custom routes:

Component	Base Controller Class	Predefined Route	Custom Route
Report Designer	ReportDesignerController	DXXRD	ReportDesignerHandlerUri(String)
Document Viewer	WebDocumentViewerController	DXXRDV	ReportPreviewHandlerUri(String)
Query Builder	QueryBuilderController	DXXQB	QueryBuilderHandlerUri(String)

An application with End-User Report Designer requires all three controllers for proper operation.

The following code snippet implements controllers with default routes:

C#

using DevExpress.AspNetCore.Reporting.QueryBuilder;
using DevExpress.AspNetCore.Reporting.QueryBuilder.Native.Services;
using DevExpress.AspNetCore.Reporting.ReportDesigner;
using DevExpress.AspNetCore.Reporting.ReportDesigner.Native.Services;
using DevExpress.AspNetCore.Reporting.WebDocumentViewer;
using DevExpress.AspNetCore.Reporting.WebDocumentViewer.Native.Services;
// ...
public class CustomWebDocumentViewerController : WebDocumentViewerController {
    public CustomWebDocumentViewerController(IWebDocumentViewerMvcControllerService controllerService) : base(controllerService) {
    }
}

public class CustomReportDesignerController : ReportDesignerController {
    public CustomReportDesignerController(IReportDesignerMvcControllerService controllerService) : base(controllerService) {
    }
}

public class CustomQueryBuilderController : QueryBuilderController {
    public CustomQueryBuilderController(IQueryBuilderMvcControllerService controllerService) : base(controllerService) {
    }
}
