Creating WS-I Basic Profile 1.1 Interoperable Services

To configure a WCF service endpoint to be interoperable with ASP.NET Web service clients:

  • Use the System.ServiceModel.BasicHttpBinding type as the binding type for your service endpoint.

  • Do not use callback and session contract features or transaction behaviors on your service endpoint

You can optionally enable support for HTTPS and transport-level client authentication on the binding.

The following features of the BasicHttpBinding class require functionality beyond WS-I Basic Profile 1.1:

To make the metadata for a WCF service available to ASP.NET, use the Web service client generation tools: Web Services Description Language Tool (Wsdl.exe), Web Services Discovery Tool (Disco.exe), and the Add Web Reference feature in Visual Studio. Enable metadata publication. For more information, see Publishing Metadata Endpoints.

Example

Description

The following example code demonstrates how to add a WCF endpoint that is compatible with ASP.NET Web service clients in code and, alternatively, in a configuration file.

Code

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Description;

[ServiceContract]
public interface IEcho
{
    [OperationContract]
    string Echo(string s);
}

public class MyService : IEcho
{
    public string Echo(string s)
    {
        return s;
    }
}

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        string baseAddress = "http://localhost:8080/wcfselfhost/";
        ServiceHost host = new ServiceHost(typeof(MyService), new Uri(baseAddress));

        // Create a BasicHttpBinding instance
        BasicHttpBinding binding = new BasicHttpBinding();

        // Add a service endpoint using the created binding
        host.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IEcho), binding, "echo1");

        host.Open();
        Console.WriteLine("Service listening on {0} . . .", baseAddress);
        Console.ReadLine();
        host.Close();
    }
}
