I've been looking online but I can't find a defined procedure or an example on how to configure a basicHTTP self-hosted WCF service to compress messages that servers sends to clients.
I would like to use GZIP or similar technology.
this is my application app.config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.serviceModel>
<services>
<service name="Application.ApplicationServicesProxy" behaviorConfiguration="ApplicationSvcsBehave">
<host>
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress="http://localhost:9001/ApplicationSvcs"/>
</baseAddresses>
</host>
<endpoint address="http://localhost:9001/ApplicationSvcs" binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="Application.IApplicationServices"/>
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange"/>
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="ApplicationSvcsBehave">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="True"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.8"/>
</startup>
</configuration>
This is how I create the service:
var host = new ServiceHost(typeof(ApplicationServicesProxy));
host.Open();
Services are defined in IApplicationServices that is inherited by ApplicationServicesProxy
[ServiceContract]
interface IApplicationServices
{
[OperationContract]
string[] MethodOne();
}
public class AppicationServicesProxy : IApplicationServices
{
public string[] MethodOne()
{
// return a string value;
}
}
And this is how I connect the client to the service
var ApplicationSvcs = new ApplicationSvcs.ApplicationServicesClient("BasicHttpBinding_IApplicationServices");
I am currently using .NET 4.8
I solved doing like this, message size went down fromm 300 Kb/s to 11 Kb/s so it really works and CPU is not very interested in that:
<system.serviceModel>
<services>
<service name="Application.ApplicationServicesProxy" behaviorConfiguration="ApplicationSvcsBehave">
<host>
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress="http://localhost:9001/ApplicationSvcs"/>
</baseAddresses>
</host>
<endpoint address="" binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="BinaryCompressionBinding" contract="Application.IApplicationServices"/>
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange"/>
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="ApplicationSvcsBehave">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="false" httpsGetEnabled="false" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false" />
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<bindings>
<customBinding>
<binding name="BinaryCompressionBinding">
<binaryMessageEncoding compressionFormat ="GZip"/>
<httpTransport decompressionEnabled="true"/>
</binding>
</customBinding>
</bindings>
</system.serviceModel>
and on client side
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<customBinding>
<binding name="CustomBinding_IApplicationServices" >
<binaryMessageEncoding compressionFormat="GZip"/>
<httpTransport maxReceivedMessageSize="20000000"/>
</binding>
</customBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="http://localhost:9001/ApplicationSvcs" binding="customBinding"
bindingConfiguration="CustomBinding_IApplicationServices" contract="ApplicationSvcs.IApplicationServices"
name="CustomBinding_IApplicationServices" />
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
SOAP messages can be very heavy but in my application I could not use REST so I hope that can be of any help.

I am trying to host a service using UDP in WCF but I can't generate a proxy from the service. I need to host the service on a LAN. Can anyone give an example for a server and client using UDP in WCF?
Here is my app.config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Check the link below:
https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/757349/Multicasting-using-UdpBinding-in-WCF
It also have a code example.
I have a custom tcp binding I want to test on a service, specifically to disable the security:
<bindings>
<netTcpBinding>
<binding name="customTcpBinding" maxReceivedMessageSize="20480000" transferMode="Streamed" >
<security mode="None"></security>
</binding>
</netTcpBinding>
</bindings>
However, upon using the tcp binding's name in the config I recieve this error:
Severity Code Description Project File Line
Warning The 'binding' attribute is invalid - The value 'customTcpBinding' is invalid according to its datatype 'serviceBindingType' - The Enumeration constraint failed. Server C:\Users\Totally Not Beau\documents\visual studio 2015\Projects\WCF Proj\WCF Proj\App.config 24
Endpoint config:
<endpoint

Whole file if it helps:

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
I think what you want is
<endpoint
address=""
binding="netTcpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="customTcpBinding"
contract="Server.IMyService">
</endpoint>
You may have to specify an actual address too, I'm not positive.
I´m trying to implement a Wcf Duplex Service in my Windows Store Application. In my .NET WPF Application everything works fine. I use a NetTcpBinding.
Here is my Service Config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5" />
</startup>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<netTcpBinding>
<binding name="myNetTcpBinding" receiveTimeout="00:30:00">
<reliableSession enabled="true" inactivityTimeout="24.20:31:23"/>
</binding>
</netTcpBinding>
</bindings>
<services>
<service name="CnS.Base.Services.MessageHub.MessageHubService">
<endpoint address="" binding="netTcpBinding" bindingConfiguration="myNetTcpBinding" contract="CnS.Base.Services.MessageHub.IMessageHubService">
<identity>
<dns value="localhost"/>
</identity>
</endpoint>
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexTcpBinding" bindingConfiguration="" contract="IMetadataExchange"/>
<host>
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress = "net.tcp://localhost:8655/MessageHubService" />
</baseAddresses>
</host>
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior>
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="False" httpsGetEnabled="False"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
If i call a Method from the WCF Service i get a ActionNotSupportedException.I figured out that if i set
<reliableSession enabled=false"/>
It works fine. But my Problem is now that the Wcf connection is closed to my Windows Store App and i can´t Push Messages to this client.
Does anyone know a workaround for this Problem?
Getting the following error when attempting to start a Windows service hosting a WCF service:
Could not find a base address that matches scheme net.msmq for the endpoint with binding NetMsmqBinding. Registered base address schemes are [http].
Works fine if I remove the netmsmq binding and use the basichttp binding. Config is as below:
<system.serviceModel>
<services>
<service name="ManageContactService.ManageContact" behaviorConfiguration="ContactServiceBehavior">
<host>
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress="http://localhost:8888/ManageContact/ContactService"/>
</baseAddresses>
</host>
<endpoint address="net.msmq//localhost/private/testqueue" binding="netMsmqBinding"
bindingConfiguration="MyMsmqBinding" contract="ManageContactService.IManageContact" />
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
</service>
</services>
<bindings>
<netMsmqBinding>
<binding name="MyMsmqBinding">
<security mode="None"></security>
</binding>
</netMsmqBinding>
</bindings>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="ContactServiceBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="False"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>
You need a colon:
net.msmq://localhost/private/testqueue
I developed a WCF in a Managed Windows Service, based on this tutorial
This is how my interface are defined :
namespace HomeAutomationWindowsService
{
[ServiceContract]
public interface IHomeAutomation
{
[OperationContract]
string connect();
[OperationContract]
Boolean sendAction(string address, string command);
}
}
And my App.config file is like this :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<wsHttpBinding>
<binding name="Unsecured">
<security mode="None" />
</binding>
</wsHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<services>
<service name="HomeAutomationWindowsService.HomeAutomationService"
behaviorConfiguration="HomeAutomationServiceBehavior">
<host>
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress="http://192.168.11.178:8000/service"/>
</baseAddresses>
</host>
<!-- this endpoint is exposed at the base address provided by host: http://localhost:8000/service -->
<endpoint address=""
contract="HomeAutomationWindowsService.IHomeAutomation"
binding="wsHttpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="Unsecured" />
<!-- the mex endpoint is explosed at http://192.168.11.178:8000/ mex -->
<endpoint address="mex"
binding="mexHttpBinding"
contract="IMetadataExchange" />
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="HomeAutomationServiceBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="False"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>
When I make a call from a Console or a WPF App I can see the public methods, but when I do it using Windows Phone I can't see anything.
What I should do to make my WCF or Windows Phone communicating together.
I think WsHttpBinding is not supported by WP7. Try using BasicHttpBinding:
Web.config:
<system.serviceModel>
<services>
<service name="MyProject.MyService" behaviorConfiguration="behavior">
<endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="binding" contract="MyProject.MyService" />
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="behavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="binding">
</binding>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
</system.serviceModel>
After adding the webservice to your WP7 project (add service reference) the ServiceReferences.ClientConfig should look like (adding web service with WsHttpBinding generates an empty file):
<configuration>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="BasicHttpBinding_DataService" maxBufferSize="2147483647"
maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="https://localhost:44300/Services/DataService.svc"
binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_DataService"
contract="DataService.DataService" name="BasicHttpBinding_DataService" />
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
