Message.Headers Property

Definition

When overridden in a derived class, gets the headers of the message.

public:
 abstract property System::ServiceModel::Channels::MessageHeaders ^ Headers { System::ServiceModel::Channels::MessageHeaders ^ get(); };
public abstract System.ServiceModel.Channels.MessageHeaders Headers { get; }
member this.Headers : System.ServiceModel.Channels.MessageHeaders
Public MustOverride ReadOnly Property Headers As MessageHeaders

Property Value

A MessageHeaders object that represents the headers of the message.

Exceptions

Examples

The following code example shows a client that uses the channel factory to send a message and read the reply.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Channels;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class client
    {

        static void RunClient()
        {
            //Step1: create a binding with just HTTP
            CustomBinding binding = new CustomBinding();
            binding.Elements.Add(new HttpTransportBindingElement());
            //Step2: use the binding to build the channel factory
            IChannelFactory<IRequestChannel> factory =
            binding.BuildChannelFactory<IRequestChannel>(
                             new BindingParameterCollection());
            //open the channel factory
            factory.Open();
            //Step3: use the channel factory to create a channel
            IRequestChannel channel = factory.CreateChannel(
               new EndpointAddress("http://localhost:8080/channelapp"));
            channel.Open();
            //Step4: create a message
            Message requestmessage = Message.CreateMessage(
                MessageVersion.Soap12WSAddressing10,
                "http://contoso.com/someaction",
                 "This is the body data");
            //send message
            Message replymessage = channel.Request(requestmessage);
            Console.WriteLine("Reply message received");
            Console.WriteLine("Reply action: {0}",
                                  replymessage.Headers.Action);
            string data = replymessage.GetBody<string>();
            Console.WriteLine("Reply content: {0}", data);
            //Step5: don't forget to close the message
            requestmessage.Close();
            replymessage.Close();
            //don't forget to close the channel
            channel.Close();
            //don't forget to close the factory
            factory.Close();
        }
        public static void Main()
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Press [ENTER] when service is ready");
            Console.ReadLine();
            RunClient();
            Console.WriteLine("Press [ENTER] to exit");
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

Remarks

A Message can have zero or more headers that are used as an extension mechanism to pass information in messages that is application-specific. You can use Headers to add message headers to a message by calling the Add method.

Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) provides a number of predefined message headers, as shown in the following table.

Header Name Contains the header name.
To Contains the role that the message is targeting.
Action Provides a description of how the message should be processed.
FaultTo Contains the address of the node to which faults should be sent.
From Contains the address of the node that sent the message.
Request Indicates whether the message is a request.
MessageID Contains the unique ID of the message.
RelatesTo Contains the IDs of messages that are related to this message.
ReplyTo Contains the address of the node to which a reply should be sent for a request.

Notes to Implementers

When overridden in a derived class, this method returns a MessageHeaders object for the headers of the message.
