public partial class MyCustomController : ViewController {
   // ...
   private void MyCustomController_AfterConstruction(object sender, EventArgs e) {
      TargetObjectType = typeof(ReportData);
   }
}

VB.NET

Public Partial Class MyCustomController
      Inherits ViewController
   '...
   Private Sub MyCustomController_AfterConstruction(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
         ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.AfterConstruction
      TargetObjectType = GetType(MyBusinessClass)
   End Sub
End Class
