I have a lot of reports with Microsoft Report. I have migrated all my other projects to ASP.NET Core v. 3.1. I want to keep my report in rdcl because are easy to update in Visual Studio.

In my solution I added

<ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportViewerControl.WebForms" Version="150.1404.0" />
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.SqlServer.Types" Version="14.0.1016.290" />
</ItemGroup>

I noticed there are some warning in the packages. Understandable. The library is for .NET Framework not for .NET Core.

However, the project is compiling correctly. When I try to render the report, I have this error:

TypeLoadException: Could not load type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.CompositeControl' from assembly 'System.Web, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'.

Looking around I found some libraries but none of them is working:

Any idea? In alternative, is there a way to generate PDF in an Azure Functions?
