How do i get the invoked operation name within a WCF Message Inspector

Question

I'm doing a message inspector in WCF:

public class LogMessageInspector :
    IDispatchMessageInspector, IClientMessageInspector

which implements the method:

public object AfterReceiveRequest(ref Message request,
    IClientChannel channel, InstanceContext instanceContext)

I can get the name of the invoked service with:

instanceContext.GetServiceInstance().GetType().Name

But how do I get the name of the invoked operation?

Answer 1

It's not pretty, but this is what I did to get the operation name:

var action = OperationContext.Current.IncomingMessageHeaders.Action;
var operationName = action.Substring(action.LastIndexOf("/", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) + 1);

HTH,
