I'm new to WCF and I've been trying to use the Session state in Web Services, which I managed to get working with a number of articles. But these articles all follow the .net 2.0 approach, as the new WCF Service References do not have a CookieContainer by default. What is the new school way of using stateful web services? (Without us...

However, the wsdl description does not display any of its properties or any xml structure for this interface, this is the same when i send back List it gives it a default t...
In my office building we have laptops on multiple floors all running a WCF Service. When WCF services communicate with each other, will a message for an out-of-range device automatically reach it by multi-hopping? Does WCF/the WLAN device driver handle this? Or do I have to detect if a device is not contactable/out-of-range and implement...

This is probably a basic networking issue, but I am new to this stuff and just do not know the answer. I have written a wcf service and client. I can use one of the http bindings and get the service to work correctly when I put my machine's network IP address as the endpoint address and run the client and server from the same machine. ...

I created a very simple WCF class library and added this project to the solution that has a web project. I added a reference to the service from the web project.

Doesn't configuring WCF in code require more coupling with the model and service libraries? If I'm understanding it correctly, you configure the host in code in the same project as the utilized services. Then configure the channel on the client, but the client then has to know about the model which means if I have several client apps u...
