Note now, Crystal Report works only with a Crystal Report Viewer control which is available only in ASP.Net Web Forms and hence for displaying a Crystal Report, you will need to add a Web Forms page.
Go to Reports Folder and Select Add--> New Item-->
Now in this web form we need to add Crystal Report Viewer control from the ToolBox as shown below
WebForm.aspx( Create this form in the Reports Folder).
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
</div>
<CR:CrystalReportViewer ID="CrystalReportViewer1" runat="server" AutoDataBind="true" Height="450" Width="650"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
.cs
private EmployeeModel context = new EmployeeModel();
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
CrystalReportViewer1.ToolPanelView = CrystalDecisions.Web.ToolPanelViewType.None;
CrystalReport1 crystalReport = new CrystalReport1();
List<EmployeeInfo> allemps = new List<EmployeeInfo>();
allemps = context.EmployeeInfoes.ToList();
crystalReport.SetDataSource(allemps);
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = crystalReport;
//Response.Buffer = false;
Response.ClearContent();
//Response.ClearHeaders();
}
Output:
After clicking on view Report
2 Example :
You can display the same report in another way as shown below
Modify the Controller code as shown below
private EmployeeModel context = new EmployeeModel();
// GET: CrstalReportExample
public ActionResult Index()
{
EmployeeModel emp = new EmployeeModel();
return View(from employee in emp.EmployeeInfoes.Take(10)
select employee);
}
public ActionResult ExportCustomers()
{
List<EmployeeInfo> allemps = new List<EmployeeInfo>();
allemps = context.EmployeeInfoes.ToList();
ReportDocument rd = new ReportDocument();
rd.Load(Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~/Reports"), "CrystalReport1.rpt"));
rd.SetDataSource(allemps);
Response.Buffer = false;
Response.ClearContent();
Response.ClearHeaders();
Stream stream = rd.ExportToStream(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat);
stream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
return File(stream, "application/pdf", "EmployeeList.pdf");
}
In the index.cs.html add the below line
<div><a href="@Url.Action("ExportCustomers")"> View Crystal Report </a></div>
