Currently we have website that must consume a WCF service because our we have x64 web servers and have code dependencies on 32-bit third party assemblies which are not x64 compatible. So WCF service is a wrapper. When I add the "service reference" there are several file generated but no .cs file. I thought there was suppose to be a refe...
Lets say I have some interfaces: public interface IFoo { IBar DoesStuff(); } public interface IBar { string Thingo { get; } } I'm consuming this code throughout my code base. The IFoo process needs to be moved onto a different system (a difference of x64 vs x32), this is our reason for using WFC. My WCF service implements this int...
Hi All, I have a self hosted TCP based WCF service. I am now building a project that consumes that service, but there seems to be at least two ways of adding a service reference to a project and the both produce wildly different proxies. First I used the "Add service reference" from the project menu, but this generated quite a few files...

I'm quite stuck on one part of using WCF for a client/server messaging system, and would very much appreciate some help. On the server, I've got a Message DataContract object where one of the properties points to a typed collection of MessageBody DataContracts. A stripped down version of the class looks like this: [DataContract] class...

I'm trying to write a class that encapsulates WCF calls (the client is Silverlight, if it matters). It all works swimmingly, but I'm not sure how to trap a connection failure, as if the server won't respond. It would appear that bit of work happens somewhere in the resulting code from ChannelFactory, but I'm not sure. General code review...
I have a WCF service ( Let's say WCFService1 ) is deployed on two remote machines. Since the same service is deployed on two different machines they have common interface and common methods exposed. WCFService1 is deployed on Machine1 and Machine2. To consume WCF service from client machine, I have created a client app: I have added ...

I am using VSTS2008 + C# + .Net 3.5 to develop WCF service hosted in IIS. Then I generate client proxy code automatically by using Add Service Reference function from VSTS 2008. My question is, suppose I create a client proxy instance, then use this specific instance to call various methods exposed by WCF service at server side. Then, e...
Caution, WCF noobie alert I need to create a WCF client to query a non-WCF web service. The web service is not a WCF service. Additionally, the web service requires a client authentication certificate. Now, I have the certificate, and can create a non-WCF client that works perfectly; I was able to 'Add Web Reference' and a certificate...
