Crystal Reports - Serialization

[#1]

Hello,

I'm using CrystalDecisions 13.0.1 dll's. (unable to upgrade due to licensing issues)

I am using asp.net 4.7.

I would like to disable the use of sessions in my system. Therefor I can't save the "ReportDocument" object in a session so I could read it on postbacks (when using paging etc...).

So I would like to serialize the object so I could store it in my cache server (couchbase)

I saw this example:

ISCDReportClientDocument ReportClientDocument = doc.ReportClientDocument;

CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Utilities.Conversion converter = new CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Utilities.Conversion();

serializedCrystalReportDocument = converter.ToString(ReportClientDocument);

But "Utilities" namespace does not exist in my version of CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer dll.

Do I have another way to serialize/deserialize this object?

Thanks

Hi Alon,

the Utilities namespace can be found in the CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataSetConversion assembly,
