PollingDuplexHttpBinding Class (System.ServiceModel)

.NET Framework Class Library for Silverlight

PollingDuplexHttpBinding Class

Represents a binding that a Silverlight version 3 client can use to configure endpoints that can communicate with Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) services that are similarly configured for duplex communication with a polling client.

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

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)

Public Class PollingDuplexHttpBinding _
    Inherits Binding

Visual Basic (Usage)

Dim instance As PollingDuplexHttpBinding

public class PollingDuplexHttpBinding : Binding

Remarks

Security is turned off by default, but can be added by setting the PollingDuplexHttpSecurityMode to a value other than None in the PollingDuplexHttpBinding(PollingDuplexHttpSecurityMode) constructor.

The binding is configured to use a "Text" message encoding and UTF-8 character encoding by default.

There are two time-outs on the PollingDuplexBindingElement used by this binding that are set to default values. PollTimeout()()() specifies the interval of time that a polling request has to complete before timing out; the default value is 5 minutes. The InactivityTimeout specifies the maximum interval of time that can pass without activity on a channel before it enters a faulted state; the default value is 10 minutes. The InactivityTimeout()()() property can be used to change the default value directly on the binding. But value of thePollTimeout()()() can be changed on the PollingDuplexBindingElement only when constructing a stack of binding elements for a CustomBinding.

Examples
