IClientMessageInspector Interface
Defines a message inspector object that can be added to the MessageInspectors collection to view or modify messages.
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
The IClientMessageInspector type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
AfterReceiveReply | Enables inspection or modification of a message after a reply message is received but prior to passing it back to the client application. |
|
|
BeforeSendRequest | Enables inspection or modification of a message before a request message is sent to a service. |
Implement the IClientMessageInspector interface and add it to the MessageInspectors collection to inspect or modify messages as they pass through a client object. For details, see ClientRuntime.
The following code example shows an implementation that writes strings to the console when the implementation is called.
#region IClientMessageInspector Members public void AfterReceiveReply(ref System.ServiceModel.Channels.Message reply, object correlationState) { Console.WriteLine("IClientMessageInspector.AfterReceiveReply called."); Console.WriteLine("Message: {0}", reply.ToString()); } public object BeforeSendRequest(ref System.ServiceModel.Channels.Message request, IClientChannel channel) { Console.WriteLine("IClientMessageInspector.BeforeSendRequest called."); return null; }
The following code example shows how to use an System.ServiceModel.Description.IEndpointBehavior to insert the client message inspector in the client endpoint.
#region IEndpointBehavior Members public void AddBindingParameters( ServiceEndpoint endpoint, BindingParameterCollection bindingParameters ) { return; } public void ApplyClientBehavior(ServiceEndpoint endpoint, ClientRuntime clientRuntime) { clientRuntime.MessageInspectors.Add(new Inspector()); foreach (ClientOperation op in clientRuntime.Operations) op.ParameterInspectors.Add(new Inspector()); } public void ApplyDispatchBehavior(ServiceEndpoint endpoint, EndpointDispatcher endpointDispatcher) { endpointDispatcher.DispatchRuntime.MessageInspectors.Add(new Inspector()); foreach (DispatchOperation op in endpointDispatcher.DispatchRuntime.Operations) op.ParameterInspectors.Add(new Inspector()); } public void Validate(ServiceEndpoint endpoint){ return; }
Finally, the following code example shows how to modify the client configuration file to use the endpoint behavior with a particular endpoint.
