Assembly:

System.WorkflowServices.dll

Sets context information for a SendActivity activity.

Overloads

SetContext(Activity, ChannelToken, Type, IDictionary<String,String>)	A static method that sets context information for a SendActivity activity, given an activity instance, an endpoint used by that activity, a Type object that represents the type of the contract, and the context information itself.
SetContext(Activity, String, String, Type, IDictionary<String,String>)	A static method that sets context information for a SendActivity activity, given an activity instance, an endpoint name used by that activity, the name of the owner activity, a Type object that represents the type of the contract, and the context information itself.

Remarks

Context information is used for communication between the client and the service it is communicating and includes such things as identification for correlation.

SetContext(Activity, ChannelToken, Type, IDictionary<String,String>)

A static method that sets context information for a SendActivity activity, given an activity instance, an endpoint used by that activity, a Type object that represents the type of the contract, and the context information itself.

public:
 static void SetContext(System::Workflow::ComponentModel::Activity ^ activity, System::Workflow::Activities::ChannelToken ^ endpoint, Type ^ contractType, System::Collections::Generic::IDictionary<System::String ^, System::String ^> ^ context);

public static void SetContext (System.Workflow.ComponentModel.Activity activity, System.Workflow.Activities.ChannelToken endpoint, Type contractType, System.Collections.Generic.IDictionary<string,string> context);

static member SetContext : System.Workflow.ComponentModel.Activity * System.Workflow.Activities.ChannelToken * Type * System.Collections.Generic.IDictionary<string, string> -> unit

Public Shared Sub SetContext (activity As Activity, endpoint As ChannelToken, contractType As Type, context As IDictionary(Of String, String))

Parameters

activity

Activity

The Activity instance to associate the context information with.

endpoint

contractType

Type

The Type of the contract implemented by a service.

context

IDictionary<String,String>

The context information to set.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the SetContext method.
