wcf Your first service Create a ServiceHost programmatically
Example
Creating a ServiceHost programmatically (without config file) in its most basic form:
namespace ConsoleHost
{
class ConsoleHost
{
ServiceHost mHost;
public Console()
{
mHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(Example), new Uri("net.tcp://localhost:9000/Example"));
NetTcpBinding tcp = new NetTcpBinding();
mHost.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IExample),tcp,"net.tcp://localhost:9000/Example");
}
public void Open()
{
mHost.Open();
}
public void Close()
{
mHost.Close();
}
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
ConsoleHost host = new ConsoleHost();
host.Open();
Console.ReadLine();
host.Close();
}
}
}
- Create a ServiceHost instance passing the concrete class type and zero or more baseaddress Uri's.
- Construct the desired binding, NetTcpBinding in this case.
- call AddServiceEndpoint passing the Address, Binding and Contract. (ABC mnemonic for WCF endpoints).
- Open the host.
- Keep host open until user press key on console.
- Close the host.
