Background I got a client/server solution which is using a mix of services (like IUserService to add/remove/fetch etc) and messages (like UserCreated, CallArrived etc). Each client authenticates when connecting. It's a software as service solution and therefore all messages may not be transported to all connected clients. Therefore I ne...

I search a lot of about it,but i can't decide which technology or what i should to use. Which technology allow me to communicate my server with the users who connect to it...
Dear All! In a current project we are hosting a WCF 3.5 service on IIS7 and expose the methods through basicHttpBinding to an Adobe AIR/Flex4-client. Luckily Flash Builder 4 has integrated support for SOAP, so that a service-proxy can be generated easily. Unfortunately, we are not able to find any elegant solution to enable username au...
hello. I've a program working as client and server. I'm using wcf services with BasicHttpBinding and the program is running in a console application. When i moved the code to a windows forms application, everything stops working. When the client side invoke one operation, it doesn't returns. When some operation on server side is invo...
I need to call a WCF service to update when my SilverLight app exits. it is an out-of-browser app and I'm using SL4. Since the WCF in SL works only async it is not possible to do on Application.Exit I tried also MainWindow.Closing which is available for OOB but this didn't work either. Tried to make the Closing function wait for th...
Dear ladies and sirs. I have two machines in different domains. The domains are not known to each other (no trust between them). I wish to use the net.msmq binding to communicate data from one endpoint to another. So, let A and S be two machines, where A must be able to send messages to S. Then, in the config file of A, there is this ...
I am kinda new to WCF and the setting up of service and have 2 questions. My first question I have a service that will be accessed via https on a web server. However locally on my local IIS7, it will be accessed via http as https is not available. How can I set up a service to be accessed by both? My second question is regarding how I c...
I am playing around creating a demo prism application. The application I have has a shell project and another module that has a prism service and a view (and a view-model). (mostly based off of Mike Taulty's videos, but in WPF rather than silverlight). I setup the prism-service to call my web service. It seemed all setup right, but w...

I have a database with a lots of relationships between Tables and a Silverlight client that connects to my server with WCF service on ASP.Net side. First i used LINQ to SQL as a robust mapper tables to object and in a WebMethod that returns a List<Foo> of my Database's object(suppose GetFoo()). The Foo has lots of relationships with oth...
If we Host WCF in WAS then we do not need to install IIS completely. Is this really a big advantage of hosting in WAS? ...
I have developed some basic web services using WCF. So far the return types have been fairly simple. Here are the Operation contracts that are working correctly: [OperationContract] string Vessel(int ID); //lists all vessel [OperationContract] List<string> Vessels(); [OperationContract] List<string> PortsLike(string LikeStr); [Operat...
We are trying to figure out a way to modify WCF service behavior to catch all exceptions and instead of returning faults to the client, it will populate a custom return object with exception data and return that. So far, we haven't had much luck. I found this example: Catching custom faults However, it doesn't return custom types as we ...
I am trying to extend my service endpoint behaviour with custom MessageInspector, extension works fine and its picked up, but only if I don’t define the “name” parameter on behaviour tag and don’t define specific behaviorConfiguration on the endpoint. This means I am extending all endpoints and this is what I don’t want. Could anyone ple...
When invoking a service, my client code passes in data. One of the data members is a byte array, so WCF will automatically encode this into a base-64 string during serialization. The problem is, the data contract of the service is expecting a byte array, not a string, so deserialization of the data will result in an exception: Expecting...
I want to be able to Ajax-ly retrieve JSON data from some kind of web service. (The web service calls will be wrapping a call to SQL, processing the DataSet returned, and returning a JSON representation.) Initially, I thought an ASP.NET MVC project with appropriately named Controllers and Actions that return JsonResults would suffice. Ho...
What is the best way to log the contents of anything POSTed to a WCF Data Service? I have tried using the service trace viewer but only see WebHeaders? Thanks ...
I'm creating a custom behaviour for WCF which can (for interoperability reasons) only function correctly when a service exposes a single application endpoint. I would like to be able to use the IServiceBehavior.Validate method to check that only one application endpoint is exposed by the service. Currently I'm doing the following: publ...
I followed the steps here to make my existing WCF service (already working fine as console application) be Windows Service as well, on my Windows 7 machine which is also my development machine. No matter what I tried, when doing the last step of using installutil, I'm getting the following message in the command line: Exception occurred...
I am in the process of creating an application which will communicate with a single server where WCF Web Service(s) would be installed. I am a little new to this process and was wondering which of these two options would be better in the long run to handle the load for a significant amount of users: 1- Create and install a single Web Se...
