IClientMessageFormatter Interface
Defines methods that are used to control the conversion of messages into objects and objects into messages for client applications.
Namespace: System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
The IClientMessageFormatter type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() ![]() | DeserializeReply | Converts a message into a return value and out parameters that are passed back to the calling operation. |
![]() ![]() ![]() | SerializeRequest | Converts an Object array into an outbound Message. |
Implement the IClientMessageFormatter interface to create a custom client formatter that serializes objects into messages and deserializes messages into objects for a particular operation.
Attach custom Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) client formatters to the Formatter property to handle this conversion explicitly.
