Examples

The following example uses the MessagePartDescription returned by the Parts property of the MessageBodyDescription class. The code iterates through the collection of endpoints and prints each endpoint name, as well as the name of each operation in the endpoint.

private void PrintDescription(ServiceHost sh)
{
    // Declare variables.
    int i, j, k, l, c;
    ServiceDescription servDesc = sh.Description;
    OperationDescription opDesc;
    ContractDescription contractDesc;
    MessageDescription methDesc;
    MessageBodyDescription mBodyDesc;
    MessagePartDescription partDesc;
    IServiceBehavior servBeh;
    ServiceEndpoint servEP;

    // Print the behaviors of the service.
    Console.WriteLine("Behaviors:");
    for (c = 0; c < servDesc.Behaviors.Count; c++)
    {
        servBeh = servDesc.Behaviors[c];
        Console.WriteLine("\t{0}", servBeh.ToString());
    }

    // Print the endpoint descriptions of the service.
    Console.WriteLine("Endpoints");
    for (i = 0; i < servDesc.Endpoints.Count; i++)
    {
        // Print the endpoint names.
        servEP = servDesc.Endpoints[i];
        Console.WriteLine("\tName: {0}", servEP.Name);
        contractDesc = servEP.Contract;

        Console.WriteLine("\tOperations:");
        for (j = 0; j < contractDesc.Operations.Count; j++)
        {
            // Print the operation names.
            opDesc = servEP.Contract.Operations[j];
            Console.WriteLine("\t\t{0}", opDesc.Name);
            Console.WriteLine("\t\tActions:");
            for (k  = 0; k < opDesc.Messages.Count; k++)
            {
                // Print the message action.
                methDesc = opDesc.Messages[k];
                Console.WriteLine("\t\t\tAction:{0}", methDesc.Action);

                // Check for the existence of a body, then the body description.
                mBodyDesc = methDesc.Body;
                if (mBodyDesc.Parts.Count > 0)
                {
                    for (l = 0; l < methDesc.Body.Parts.Count; l++)
                    {
                        partDesc = methDesc.Body.Parts[l];
                        Console.WriteLine("\t\t\t\t{0}",partDesc.Name);
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
