Reporting for Web - Register Types for Object Data Source Wizard

This example performs the following steps to register object types for the Object Data Source Wizard, which allows users to create an Object Data Source:

• Declares the DataSource and DataSource2 classes that should provide data to reports. The DisplayName attribute is applied to the DataSource class to specify a custom display name for the Report Wizard and Data Source Wizard. The class's name and namespace are used for the DataSource2 class.

• Implements the IObjectDataSourceWizardTypeProvider interface to list data types.

• Implements the IObjectDataSourceConstructorFilterService interface to list only specific data type constructors in the Report Wizard and Data Source Wizard.

• Implements the IObjectDataSourceMemberFilterService interface to list only specific data members in the Report Wizard and Data Source Wizard.

• The RegisterObjectDataSourceWizardTypeProvider<T>(), RegisterObjectDataSourceConstructorFilterService<T>() and RegisterObjectDataSourceMemberFilterService<T>() methods are called at the application's startup to register the interface implementations.
