I worked throughthis MSDN article, but I'm missing something because it doesn't work. First, I have some custom ClientCredentials that provide a custom ClientCredentialsSecurityTok...
The way you seem to declare WCF services is to create an interface in C# or VB, and then tag it with ServiceContractAttribute and it's methods with OperationContractAttribute. The issue is, I'd like to try creating one from IronRuby or IronPython, which (to my knowledge) don't support attributes. Is this possible? ...

I have implemented a wcf service and now, my client wants it to have three copies of it, working independently on different machines. A master-slave approach. I need to find a solution that will enable behavior: the first service that is instantiated "asks" the other two "if they are alive?" - if no, then it becomes a master and it is t...
I have a Web application and a WCF service hosted on the same Windows 2003 development server.

When I expose a service using NetTcpBinding, is .Net remoting used under the surface? Could I consume this service using .Net remoting on the client side? I ask this because I always thought that WCF was just a wrapper for underlying protocols such as WS*, Remoting, COM+, and MSMQ. And while I know that exposing WS* will work as expect...

Hi, I'm replacing an existing web service with a WCF service and as the first step of migration I'm going to expose an endpoint with BasicHttpBinding until the client is upgraded later on in the year.

I know I can do something like the following code to dynamically create a client endpoint connection in WCF: BasicHttpBinding basic = new BasicHttpBinding(BasicHttpSecurityMode.TransportCredentialOnly); basic.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType = HttpClientCredentialType.Ntlm; EndpointAddress serviceAddress = new ...
I have a certificate generated via MakeCert. I want to use this certificate for WCF message security using PeerTrust. How can I programmatically install the certificate into the "trusted people" local machine certificate store using c# or .NET? I have a CER file, but can also create a PFX. ...
I'm writing a WCF service to replace a current web service, and I'm having trouble with one of the legacy complex types that I need to return. Unfortunately I can't touch any of the code but looking at them all the classes are Serializable and the current web service is using it with no problem. Whenever my client calls the WCF service...

What is the proper "thing" to pass back to Silverlight? An IQueryable ? Then considering the Async/Result casting...
I have a custom implementation of ClientCredentials in WCF. Two of the base properties of ClientCredentials are the ClientCertificate and ServiceCertificate, as seen here (MSDN).

Hey all, I've installed VS 2008 and SP1. I've tried to load a solution that has a WCF project and it complains that "This project type is not supported by this installation".
