Is there anything I might regret later, i.e. any major limitations if we choose XmlSerialization instead of DataContract? Until now, we have embraced the schema first contract design. For example, if we want to parameter inspection, security enhancements, etc... will locking in now with XmlSerialization be a problem when we try to add...

For some testing code, I'd like to be able to host a WCF service in only a few lines. I figured I'd write a simple hosting class: public class WcfHost<Implementation, Contract> : IDisposable where Implementation : class where Contract : class { public readonly string Address = "net.tcp://localhost:8000/"; private Service...
I have a WCF service with multiple operations exposed as a RESTful API. Most operations on the service do not require authentication/authorization, but one or two do. The authorization policy I need to use is outside of my control, and is expensive to run. Therefore, I'd like to avoid using it on those operations that do not require it. ...

To this end, I have a library of complex object on the .NET side that I added in xml format to the web service definition on the Sonic ESB side. This is a necessary step in exposing the Sonic ESB process, be...

I am currently coding a set of helper classes to be used when creating a proxy client[for Client/Silverlight use] for consuming WCF services on the Server (NOT using Add Service Reference). Notice how I am setting up the buffer size to the max allowed (on the first code snippet), because for some services we have some big payload requ...
I am migrating to wcf and trying to figure out how I'm going to declare my Data Contracts properly. Some of the types I have been remoting are from a third party that I am unable to change. Are attributes the only way to explicitly declare data contracts in wcf? I know about the auto data contract functionality in 3.5, but the books I'...

I plan on doing a little benchmarking around this question, myself. But I thought it would be good to get some initial feedback from "the community". Has anyone out there done any analysis regarding the pros and cons of these two technologies? My thoughts: Opening and closing TCP/IP connections for web service calls is relatively ex...
We have a WCF service using TCP binding, hosted in a Windows service. The WCF service is called by an ASP.NET web application. When the WCF service is called, I would like to check whether the calling identity is a member of a particular local group. A few ways to do this are: [PrincipalPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Authenticated =...
Hi gang, I've been working through various samples to try and piece together a solution for SAML token-based authentication for ASP.Net web services and WCF RESTful web services... some of the samples I've been referencing: http://custombasicauth.codeplex.com/Wikipage http://www.leastprivilege.com/SecuringWCFDataServicesUsingWIF.aspx...
