BasicHttpBinding..::.ReaderQuotas Property

Gets or sets constraints on the complexity of SOAP messages that can be processed by endpoints configured with this binding.

Namespace:  System.ServiceModel
Assembly:  System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Property ReaderQuotas As XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas
Visual Basic (Usage)
Dim instance As BasicHttpBinding
Dim value As XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas

value = instance.ReaderQuotas

instance.ReaderQuotas = value
C#
public XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas ReaderQuotas { get; set; }
Visual C++
public:
property XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas^ ReaderQuotas {
    XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas^ get ();
    void set (XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas^ value);
}
JScript
public function get ReaderQuotas () : XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas
public function set ReaderQuotas (value : XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas)

Property Value

Type: System.Xml..::.XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas
The XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas that specifies the complexity constraints.

The complexity constraints provide protection from denial of service (DOS) attacks that attempt to use message complexity to tie up endpoint processing resources. Other complexity constraints include items such as a maximum element depth and a maximum length for string content within the message.

The following example sets ProxyAddress to application settings.

C#
        BasicHttpBinding binding =
            new BasicHttpBinding();
        XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas readerQuotas = new XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas();
        readerQuotas.MaxArrayLength = 25 * 1024;
        
            binding.ReaderQuotas = readerQuotas;

The value of this property can also be set in the configuration file.

<configuration>
  <system.serviceModel>

    <bindings>
      <basicHttpBinding>
        <binding name="Binding1">
          <readerQuotas maxBytesPerRead ="1000" 
                        maxDepth="100"/>

          <security mode="None" />
        </binding>
      </basicHttpBinding>
    </bindings>

  </system.serviceModel>

</configuration>
