“This error can arise if you are calling the service in a class library and calling the class library from another project.” In this case you will need to include the WS configuration settings into the main projects app.config if its a winapp or web.config if its a web app. This is the way to … Read more
Keith Elder nicely compares ASMX to WCF here. Check it out. Another comparison of ASMX and WCF can be found here – I don’t 100% agree with all the points there, but it might give you an idea. WCF is basically “ASMX on stereoids” – it can be all that ASMX could – plus a … Read more
With the new version of HttpClient and without the WebApi package it would be: var content = new StringContent(jsonObject.ToString(), Encoding.UTF8, “application/json”); var result = client.PostAsync(url, content).Result; Or if you want it async: var result = await client.PostAsync(url, content);
Actually, although I blogged (see Luke’s answer), I think this is better than my IDisposable wrapper. Typical code: Service<IOrderService>.Use(orderService=> { orderService.PlaceOrder(request); }); (edit per comments) Since Use returns void, the easiest way to handle return values is via a captured variable: int newOrderId = 0; // need a value for definite assignment Service<IOrderService>.Use(orderService=> { newOrderId … Read more
You can expose the service in two different endpoints. the SOAP one can use the binding that support SOAP e.g. basicHttpBinding, the RESTful one can use the webHttpBinding. I assume your REST service will be in JSON, in that case, you need to configure the two endpoints with the following behaviour configuration <endpointBehaviors> <behavior name=”jsonBehavior”> … Read more
You’ll want something like this to increase the message size quotas, in the App.config or Web.config file: <bindings> <basicHttpBinding> <binding name=”basicHttp” allowCookies=”true” maxReceivedMessageSize=”20000000″ maxBufferSize=”20000000″ maxBufferPoolSize=”20000000″> <readerQuotas maxDepth=”32″ maxArrayLength=”200000000″ maxStringContentLength=”200000000″/> </binding> </basicHttpBinding> </bindings> And use the binding name in your endpoint configuration e.g. … bindingConfiguration=”basicHttp” … The justification for the values is simple, they are sufficiently … Read more
For us, WCF is used for SOAP and Web API for REST. I wish Web API supported SOAP too. We are not using advanced features of WCF. Here is comparison from MSDN:
As tweakt said, Amazon S3 is a good model to work with. Their request signatures do have some features (such as incorporating a timestamp) that help guard against both accidental and malicious request replaying. The nice thing about HTTP Basic is that virtually all HTTP libraries support it. You will, of course, need to require … Read more
What’s likely happening is that SignalData is indirectly changing the subscribers dictionary under the hood during the loop and leading to that message. You can verify this by changing foreach(Subscriber s in subscribers.Values) To foreach(Subscriber s in subscribers.Values.ToList()) If I’m right, the problem will disappear. Calling subscribers.Values.ToList() copies the values of subscribers.Values to a separate … Read more
