Validating data contracts using business logic (entity based).

All my service methods use a facade to talk to the business logic. This means that in the facade the DataContracts (I'm using WCF) are translated to entities (Entity Framework) and then passed on to the business layer. The problem I'm facing right now is that I want to put certain validation logic in the business logic, but this keeps fr...

REST based HTTP API - should I use WCF?

I would like to code a REST based HTTP API which is accessible from .NET and any other language like for example Python. Should I use WCF for this?

Access WCF Service by Host Name and IP

I have a WCF service that is load balanced on multiple boxes.

Now we have a requirement that an internal process needs to be able to hit a page on eac...

Hosting non RIA Service from RIA Service website

We're using Silverlight 4 and Ria Services, but we also need to expose a regular WCF service to the client, ideally from the same Ria services website. I suspect this is because of DomainServiceHttpModule or due to the fact that the service is expecting binary coming back from the client instead of a SOAP message. Has anyone had any su...

How and when to use OperationContext.Current.RequestContext in WCF?

Good afternoon When developing a WCF service, I think we can't access current page request and HTTP Session information without using the class attribute: [AspNetCompatibilityRequirements( RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Required)] So, if we are not using this attribute, we could pass to our WCF methods many ob...
