How to: Expose a Contract to SOAP and Web Clients

  • Artikkeli

By default, Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) makes endpoints available only to SOAP clients. In How to: Create a Basic WCF Web HTTP Service, an endpoint is made available to non-SOAP clients. There may be times when you want to make the same contract available both ways, as a Web endpoint and as a SOAP endpoint. This topic shows an example of how to do this.

To define the service contract

  1. Define a service contract using an interface marked with the ServiceContractAttribute, WebInvokeAttribute and the WebGetAttribute attributes, as shown in the following code:

    [ServiceContract]
public interface IService
{
    [OperationContract]
    [WebGet]
    string EchoWithGet(string s);

    [OperationContract]
    [WebInvoke]
    string EchoWithPost(string s);
}

    <ServiceContract()> _
Public Interface IService

    <OperationContract()> _
    <WebGet()> _
    Function EchoWithGet(ByVal s As String) As String

    <OperationContract()> _
    <WebInvoke()> _
    Function EchoWithPost(ByVal s As String) As String
End Interface

    Note

    By default WebInvokeAttribute maps POST calls to the operation. You can, however, specify the method to map to the operation by specifying a "method=" parameter. WebGetAttribute does not have a "method=" parameter and only maps GET calls to the service operation.

  2. Implement the service contract, as shown in the following code:

    public class Service : IService
{
    public string EchoWithGet(string s)
    {
        return "You said " + s;
    }

    public string EchoWithPost(string s)
    {
        return "You said " + s;
    }
}

    Public Class Service
    Implements IService
    Public Function EchoWithGet(ByVal s As String) As String Implements IService.EchoWithGet
        Return "You said " + s
    End Function

    Public Function EchoWithPost(ByVal s As String) As String Implements IService.EchoWithPost
        Return "You said " + s
    End Function
End Class

To host the service

  1. Create a ServiceHost object, as shown in the following code:

    ServiceHost host = new ServiceHost(typeof(Service), new Uri("http://localhost:8000"));

    Dim host As New ServiceHost(GetType(Service), New Uri("http://localhost:8000"))

  2. Add a ServiceEndpoint with BasicHttpBinding for the SOAP endpoint, as shown in the following code:

    host.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IService), new BasicHttpBinding(), "Soap");

    host.AddServiceEndpoint(GetType(IService), New BasicHttpBinding(), "Soap")

  3. Add a ServiceEndpoint with WebHttpBinding for the non-SOAP endpoint and add the WebHttpBehavior to the endpoint, as shown in the following code:

    ServiceEndpoint endpoint = host.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IService), new WebHttpBinding(), "Web");
endpoint.Behaviors.Add(new WebHttpBehavior());

    Dim endpoint As ServiceEndpoint
endpoint = host.AddServiceEndpoint(GetType(IService), New WebHttpBinding(), "Web")
endpoint.Behaviors.Add(New WebHttpBehavior())

  4. Call Open() on a ServiceHost instance to open the service host, as shown in the following code:

    host.Open();

    host.Open()

To call service operations mapped to GET in a browser

  1. In a web browser, browse to "http://localhost:8000/Web/EchoWithGet?s=Hello, world!". The URL contains the base address of the service (http://localhost:8000/), the relative address of the endpoint (""), the service operation to call ("EchoWithGet"), and a question mark followed by a list of named parameters separated by an ampersand (&).

To call service operations on the Web endpoint in code

  1. Create an instance of WebChannelFactory<TChannel> within a using block, as shown in the following code.

    using (WebChannelFactory<IService> wcf = new WebChannelFactory<IService>(new Uri("http://localhost:8000/Web")))

    Using wcf As New WebChannelFactory(Of IService)(New Uri("http://localhost:8000/Web"))

Note

Close() is automatically called on the channel at the end of the using block.

  1. Create the channel and call the service, as shown in the following code.

    IService channel = wcf.CreateChannel();

string s;

Console.WriteLine("Calling EchoWithGet by HTTP GET: ");
s = channel.EchoWithGet("Hello, world");
Console.WriteLine("   Output: {0}", s);

Console.WriteLine("");
Console.WriteLine("This can also be accomplished by navigating to");
Console.WriteLine("http://localhost:8000/Web/EchoWithGet?s=Hello, world!");
Console.WriteLine("in a web browser while this sample is running.");

Console.WriteLine("");

Console.WriteLine("Calling EchoWithPost by HTTP POST: ");
s = channel.EchoWithPost("Hello, world");
Console.WriteLine("   Output: {0}", s);

    Dim channel As IService = wcf.CreateChannel()

Dim s As String

Console.WriteLine("Calling EchoWithGet by HTTP GET: ")
s = channel.EchoWithGet("Hello, world")
Console.WriteLine("   Output:  {0}", s)

Console.WriteLine("")
Console.WriteLine("This can also be accomplished by navigating to")
Console.WriteLine("http://localhost:8000/Web/EchoWithGet?s=Hello, world!")
Console.WriteLine("in a web browser while this sample is running.")

Console.WriteLine("")

Console.WriteLine("Calling EchoWithPost by HTTP POST: ")
s = channel.EchoWithPost("Hello, world")
Console.WriteLine("   Output:  {0}", s)

To call service operations on the SOAP endpoint

  1. Create an instance of ChannelFactory within a using block, as shown in the following code.

    using (ChannelFactory<IService> scf = new ChannelFactory<IService>(new BasicHttpBinding(), "http://localhost:8000/Soap"))

    Using scf As New ChannelFactory(Of IService)(New BasicHttpBinding(), "http://localhost:8000/Soap")

  2. Create the channel and call the service, as shown in the following code.

    IService channel = scf.CreateChannel();

string s;

Console.WriteLine("Calling EchoWithGet on SOAP endpoint: ");
s = channel.EchoWithGet("Hello, world");
Console.WriteLine("   Output: {0}", s);

Console.WriteLine("");

Console.WriteLine("Calling EchoWithPost on SOAP endpoint: ");
s = channel.EchoWithPost("Hello, world");
Console.WriteLine("   Output: {0}", s);

    Dim channel As IService = scf.CreateChannel()

Dim s As String

Console.WriteLine("Calling EchoWithGet on SOAP endpoint: ")
s = channel.EchoWithGet("Hello, world")
Console.WriteLine("   Output:  {0}", s)

Console.WriteLine("")

Console.WriteLine("Calling EchoWithPost on SOAP endpoint: ")
s = channel.EchoWithPost("Hello, world")
Console.WriteLine("   Output:  {0}", s)

To close the service host

  1. Close the service host, as shown in the following code.

    host.Close();

    host.Close()
