Currently, I am using XmlSerializer to deserialize .trdx file, and it returns Telerik.Reporting.Report type object.

Since, for a long time, I need to add my own functions to be available in the report's expressions, and this need becomes larger and larger, it would be great if I could use the Telerik.Reporting.XmlSerialization.ReportXmlSerializer class to deserialize the .trdx file in my derived class.

For example:

var report = new Telerik.Reporting.XmlSerialization.ReportXmlSerializer().Deserialize<MyReportDerivedClass>(TemplateStream);
