OperationContext.Current Property

Definition

Namespace:

System.ServiceModel

Assembly:

System.ServiceModel.Primitives.dll

Package:

System.ServiceModel.Primitives v8.0.0

Source:

OperationContext.cs

Gets or sets the execution context for the current thread.

public:
 static property System::ServiceModel::OperationContext ^ Current { System::ServiceModel::OperationContext ^ get(); void set(System::ServiceModel::OperationContext ^ value); };

public static System.ServiceModel.OperationContext Current { get; set; }

static member Current : System.ServiceModel.OperationContext with get, set

Public Shared Property Current As OperationContext

Property Value

OperationContext

The OperationContext that represents the messaging and execution context of the current method.

Examples

The following code example uses the Current property and GetCallbackChannel method to create a channel back to the caller from within a method. All methods in this example are one-way methods, enabling the service and the client to communicate in both directions independently. In this case, the example client application expects only one return call before it exits, but another client, for example a Windows Forms client, can receive any number of calls from the service.

Remarks

Use the Current property to obtain the execution and message context for the current method.
