Examples

The following sample shows how to create a channel factory and use it to create and manage channels.

// Construct InstanceContext to handle messages on the callback interface.
// An instance of ChatApp is created and passed to the InstanceContext.
    InstanceContext site = new InstanceContext(new ChatApp());

// Create the participant with the given endpoint configuration.
// Each participant opens a duplex channel to the mesh.
// Participant is an instance of the chat application that has opened a channel to the mesh.

    using (DuplexChannelFactory<IChatChannel> cf =
        new DuplexChannelFactory<IChatChannel>(site,"ChatEndpoint"))
    {
        X509Certificate2 issuer = GetCertificate(
            StoreName.CertificateAuthority,
            StoreLocation.CurrentUser, "CN=" + issuerName,
            X509FindType.FindBySubjectDistinguishedName);
        cf.Credentials.Peer.Certificate =
            GetCertificate(StoreName.My,
            StoreLocation.CurrentUser,
            "CN=" + member,
            X509FindType.FindBySubjectDistinguishedName);
        cf.Credentials.Peer.PeerAuthentication.CertificateValidationMode  =
            X509CertificateValidationMode.Custom;
        cf.Credentials.Peer.PeerAuthentication.CustomCertificateValidator =
            new IssuerBasedValidator();

        using (IChatChannel participant = cf.CreateChannel())
        {
    // Retrieve the PeerNode associated with the participant and register for online/offline events.
    // PeerNode represents a node in the mesh. Mesh is the named collection of connected nodes.
            IOnlineStatus ostat = participant.GetProperty<IOnlineStatus>();
            ostat.Online += new EventHandler(OnOnline);
            ostat.Offline += new EventHandler(OnOffline);

            Console.WriteLine("{0} is ready", member);
            Console.WriteLine("Press <ENTER> to send the chat message.");

    // Announce self to other participants.
            participant.Join(member);
            Console.ReadLine();
            participant.Chat(member, "Hi there - I am chatting");

            Console.WriteLine("Press <ENTER> to terminate this instance of chat.");
            Console.ReadLine();
    // Leave the mesh and close the client.
            participant.Leave(member);
        }
    }

Remarks

A duplex channel allows clients and servers to communicate with each other independently so that either can initiate calls to the other. A duplex service can send messages to the client endpoint, providing event-like behavior. Duplex communication occurs when a client establishes a session with a service and provides the service with a channel on which the service can send messages back to the client. The various CreateChannel methods are used to create these duplex channels. The duplex message pattern is one of three message patterns available to Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) services. The other two message patterns are one-way and request-reply.

For a general discussion of duplex services that allow clients to connect back to the service, see Duplex Services. For an outline and discussion of the steps involved in writing a Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) client application using a channel factory, see How to: Use the ChannelFactory. For a procedure describing how to create a Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) client in a client class that implements the callback interface to access a service that uses a duplex messaging pattern, see How to: Access Services with a Duplex Contract.
