CommunicationObject Class

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Provides a common base implementation for the basic state machine common to all communication-oriented objects in the system, including channels and the channel factories.

Remarks

The CommunicationObject class implements the ICommunicationObject interface for all communication objects inSilverlight 5. The method implementations handle parameter validation, raise events that notify the occurrence of state transitions, provide the means to associated additional processing with these state transitions, and ensure that such state changes are coordinated.

The state machine implemented for communication-oriented objects in Silverlight 5 is the same as the state machine implemented for communication-oriented objects in Windows Communication Foundation (WCF). For a discussion of states and transitions between states, see Understanding State Changes
