HttpsTransportBindingElement Class (System.ServiceModel.Channels)

.NET Framework Class Library

HttpsTransportBindingElement Class

Represents the binding element used to specify an HTTPS transport for transmitting messages.

Namespace: System.ServiceModel.Channels
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)

Public Class HttpsTransportBindingElement _
    Inherits HttpTransportBindingElement _
    Implements ITransportTokenAssertionProvider

Visual Basic (Usage)

Dim instance As HttpsTransportBindingElement

public class HttpsTransportBindingElement : HttpTransportBindingElement, 
    ITransportTokenAssertionProvider

Visual C++

public ref class HttpsTransportBindingElement : public HttpTransportBindingElement, 
    ITransportTokenAssertionProvider

JScript

public class HttpsTransportBindingElement extends HttpTransportBindingElement implements ITransportTokenAssertionProvider

Remarks

The HttpsTransportBindingElement class is the starting point for creating a custom binding that implements the HTTPS transport protocol. HTTPS is the primary transport used for secure interoperability purposes. HTTPS is supported by the Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) to ensure interoperability with other Web services stacks.

The WCF service model uses this class to create factory objects that implement the IChannelFactory and IChannelListener interfaces. These factory objects, in turn, create the channels and listeners that transmit SOAP messages using the HTTPS protocol.

You control the configuration of the factories that this class creates by setting its properties, such as: RequireClientCertificate.

You can also set properties on the base class, HttpTransportBindingElement, such as: AuthenticationScheme, HostnameComparisonMode()()(), and MaxBufferSize.

You can also set properties on the base class TransportBindingElement, such as: ManualAddressing, and MaxBufferPoolSize. For a complete list of properties, see TransportBindingElement.
