HttpChannel in WCF

RE: HttpChannel in WCF

Hi Scott,

From your description ,I understand you want to convert a .NET remoting
service to WCF hosted. However, you met some problems on converting a
singleton SAO since it uses dynamically assigned listening port, so you're
wondering how to do this in WCF, correct?

If your main concern is dynamically configuring service port. I think you
can consider do the ServceHost creation programmaticall y. Thus, you can use
code to specify the baseAddress or subaddress for each endpoint of the
service.

I've found two web articles which provide some sample code on creating WCF
service host programmtically . They also include the code that supplyl the
service's address(include port)

I have a small program that exposes an interface via soap as follows:

HttpChannel ipc = new HttpChannel( nPort );
ChannelServices .RegisterChanne l( ipc, false );
RemotingConfigu ration.Register WellKnownServic eType(
typeof(WsdlClie nt.CJLResponse) , "JLSoapResponse .rem",
WellKnownObject Mode.Singleton );

This works fine. Note that the port the program is listening on varies.
This
allows for multiple instances of the program to run concurrently.

I want to convert this to its WCF equivalent.

I am current using the following configuration which works for a single
instance but not for multiple.

<system.service Model>
<services>
<service name="WsdlClien t.CJLResponse"
behaviorConfigu ration="SoapRsp Service">
<host>
<baseAddresse s>
<add baseAddress="ht tp://xx.xx.xx.xx:530 0/JLSoapResponse. wcf"/>
</baseAddresses>
</host>
<endpoint address=""
binding="basicH ttpBinding"
bindingConfigur ation="SoapRspB indingBasicHttp "

</service>
</services>

Steven,

This turned out to be not such as easy question. The links you gave where
helpful and I ended up purchasing a book or two on the topic that had several
other examples.

Thanks!
