I see WCF response types (i.e. the types of objects returned from WCF handlers) containing DTO types which in-turn contain the fields the client is interested in. Is this standard practise? Why not put the fields directly on the response type? ...
I am trying to setup a Silverlight 3 application to use a WCF web service through the PollingDuplexHttpBinding. I have this working over basic HTTP, but I need to get it to work over HTTP*S*. Server web.config: <system.serviceModel> <extensions> <bindingExtensions> <add name="pollingDuplexHttpBinding" ...
So I'm using a WCF service using basicHttpBinding with TransportWithMessageCredential. I can authenticate just fine with it from .net to .net.

I have WCF service that is IIS-hosted and I have to send binary data (memory stream that is created by service) in intranet environment.

I am hoping there is a better way to do this. Do I really have to wrap each method of my wcf service into an interface in order to use it? I don't think my fellow developers are going to buy into this because of the amount of time it takes... there must be a better way! ...
I want to remove dependencies from my classes for WCF Services. I want to inject them into the constructor as an interface and then mock the interface when I am testing that class. What is the best practice and the fastest way for doing this? my class: class Test { public IMyWCFInterface _wcf; public Test(IMyWCFInterface wcf) { _wcf...

No examples actually uses a Web.config file to create the servi...

Ok, I have developed this WinForms client, which interacts with a server (ASPX Application) by means of WCF calls. I would now like to deploy the server to my shared webhost, but I'm kinda new to WCF and especially the security possibilities behind it. The goal is to kind of secure the WCF service, so that not everybody that knows or f...

This is on .Net 4, full framework. I'm trying to make a simple winforms app that will make some simple WCF REST calls. It's using ChannelFactory and the service contract interface. Of the ~20 methods in the interface, 2 of them involve Stream (an upload and a download method) so the service side (and currently also the client side) us...

Is there something wrong with proxy generation or WCF was designed this way? What are the reasons behind [Specified] fields especially if strin...
I have a WCF web service that exposes several business methods. I also have two clients - an asp.net GUI and a data migration application that both connect to the wcf backend to invoke various business transactions. I need my backend to be able to identify and distinguish between which wcf client has made a call to some variant logic. ...
