Examples

The following XML Web service implements operations from four bindings. Specifically, the XML Web service declares three bindings it implements operations for, by applying three WebServiceBindingAttribute attributes to the XML Web service.

To specify which binding an XML Web service method is implementing an operation for, a SoapDocumentMethodAttribute is applied to each of the XML Web service methods, except DefaultBindingMethod. By not specifying a binding for DefaultBindingMethod, it is implementing an operation on the default binding for the XML Web service.

 using System;
 using System.Web.Services;
 using System.Web.Services.Protocols;

 // Binding is defined in this XML Web service and uses the default namespace.
 [ WebServiceBinding(Name="LocalBinding")]

 // Binding is defined in this XML Web service, but it is not a part of the default namespace.
 [ WebServiceBinding(Name="LocalBindingNonDefaultNamespace", 
             Namespace="http://www.contoso.com/MyBinding" )]

 // Binding is defined on a remote server, but this XML Web service implements at least one operation in that binding.
 [ WebServiceBinding(Name="RemoteBinding", 
          Namespace="http://www.contoso.com/MyBinding",

      [ SoapDocumentMethod(Binding="LocalBinding")]

      public string LocalBindingMethod() {

      [ SoapDocumentMethod(Binding="LocalBindingNonDefaultNamespace")] 
      [ WebMethod() ]

Remarks

A binding, as defined by Web Services Description Language (WSDL), is similar to an interface, in that it defines a concrete set of operations. Each XML Web service method is an operation within a particular binding. XML Web service methods are members of either the default binding for an XML Web service or a binding specified within a WebServiceBindingAttribute applied to a class implementing an XML Web service. An XML Web service can implement multiple bindings, by applying multiple WebServiceBindingAttribute attributes to an XML Web service.

Once one or more WebServiceAttribute attributes are applied to an XML Web service, a SoapDocumentMethodAttribute or SoapRpcMethodAttribute can be applied to individual XML Web service methods to indicate the binding operation implemented by a particular XML Web service method. Set the Binding property of SoapDocumentMethodAttribute or SoapRpcMethodAttribute to specify the binding an XML Web service method is implementing an operation for.

Constructors

WebServiceBindingAttribute()
