Namespace: Microsoft.Web.Services2.Addressing
Assembly: Microsoft.Web.Services2 (in microsoft.web.services2.dll)

Usage

'Usage
Dim message As SoapEnvelope
Dim returnValue As Boolean
Dim endpointReference1 As EndpointReference
returnValue = endpointReference1.Matches(message)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function Matches( _
    ByVal message As SoapEnvelope _
) As Boolean
public bool Matches(
    SoapEnvelope message
);
public: Boolean Matches(
    SoapEnvelope^ message
);
public boolean Matches(
    SoapEnvelope message
);
public function Matches(
     message : SoapEnvelope
) : Boolean;

Parameters

Return Value

true if the message contains the same endpoint reference values as the current EndpointReference; otherwise, false.

Remarks

When the Matches method checks to see if a message is addressed to an EndpointReference, it does the following:

  • Compares the To to the Address.

  • Searches the header to see that it contains the ReferenceProperties.

  • Ignores PortType, ServiceName, and Via.

  • Allows additional headers, but ignores them.

  • Uses the first match found, if more than one EndpointReference is a possible match.
