ReportStorageWebExtension.CanSetData(String) Method

Determines whether a report with the specified URL can be saved.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraReports.Web.Extensions

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraReports.v21.2.Web.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Web.Reporting.Common

Declaration

C#

public virtual bool CanSetData(
    string url
)

VB.NET

Public Overridable Function CanSetData(
    url As String
) As Boolean

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
url	String	A String specifying the URL that will identify a report in the storage.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if a report storage can save a report with the specified name; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Use the CanSetData method to determine whether a user can save a report with the specified URL. Add custom logic that returns false for reports that should be read-only. Return true if no valdation is required. This method is called only for valid URLs (if the ReportStorageWebExtension.IsValidUrl method returns true).

For a code example, create a new Web project from the DevExpress Visual Studio template and review the code for the CustomReportStorageWebExtension class in the Services folder.
