WFC is dirt simple

 

I declare my interface:

[ServiceContract(Namespace = "DocumtrCommunication")]

public interface IDocumtrContract

{

[OperationContract]

List<string> ExecuteQueryReturnIDs(string optionalContextId, string query);

[OperationContract]

string IdAndAttributeToString(string id, string attribute);

[OperationContract]

Stream IdAndAttributeToImage(string id, string attribute);

}

 

And I implement the interface in the server:

namespace TestSysForDocumtr

{

public class Server : IDocumtrContract

{

public static Uri baseAddress = new Uri("net.pipe://localhost/MyPipe3");

#region IDocumtrContract Members

List<string> IDocumtrContract.ExecuteQueryReturnIDs(string optionalContextId, string query)

{

return Form1.ExecuteOCL(optionalContextId,query);

}

string IDocumtrContract.IdAndAttributeToString(string id, string attribute)

{

return Form1.IdToString(id, attribute);

}

Stream IDocumtrContract.IdAndAttributeToImage(string id, string attribute)

{

return null;

}

#endregion

}

}

 

I start the server (I commented out the meta data exposure part since I will write my client myself)

ServiceHost selfHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(Server), Server.baseAddress);

selfHost.AddServiceEndpoint(

typeof(IDocumtrContract),

new NetNamedPipeBinding(),

Server.baseAddress);

//ServiceMetadataBehavior smb = new ServiceMetadataBehavior();

//smb.HttpGetEnabled = true;

//smb.HttpGetUrl = new Uri("http://localhost:8001/DocumtrContract");

//selfHost.Description.Behaviors.Add(smb);

selfHost.Open();

And now the client:

public partial class WCFClientImpl : System.ServiceModel.ClientBase<DocumtrCommunication.IDocumtrContract>, DocumtrCommunication.IDocumtrContract

{

public WCFClientImpl(System.ServiceModel.Channels.Binding binding, System.ServiceModel.EndpointAddress remoteAddress) :

base(binding, remoteAddress)

{

}

#region IDocumtrContract Members

public List<string> ExecuteQueryReturnIDs(string optionalContextId,string query)

{

return base.Channel.ExecuteQueryReturnIDs(optionalContextId,query);

}

public string IdAndAttributeToString(string id, string attribute)

{

return base.Channel.IdAndAttributeToString(id, attribute);

}

public Stream IdAndAttributeToImage(string id, string attribute)

{

return base.Channel.IdAndAttributeToImage(id,attribute);

}

#endregion

}

And this is how I call the server from the client:

EndpointAddress endpointAddress = new EndpointAddress("net.pipe://localhost/MyPipe3");

NetNamedPipeBinding binding = new NetNamedPipeBinding();

WCFClientImpl x = new WCFClientImpl(binding,endpointAddress);

List<string> ss=x.ExecuteQueryReturnIDs("","Class1.allinstances");

Done.
