WebMessageBodyStyle Enumeration

.NET Framework 4

Other Versions

An enumeration that specifies whether to wrap parameter and return values.

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

Syntax

C++

Copy

public enum WebMessageBodyStyle

Members

	Member name	Description
	Bare	Both requests and responses are not wrapped.
	Wrapped	Both requests and responses are wrapped.
	WrappedRequest	Requests are wrapped, responses are not wrapped.
	WrappedResponse	Responses are wrapped, requests are not wrapped.

Remarks

When the service or client serializes parameters and return values to a message, it writes them within infrastructure-provided XML elements and are wrapped. Sometimes developers do not want the service to write these extra XML elements. The WebMessageBodyStyle enumeration specifies whether to wrap parameters and return values.

This enumeration is used with the WebGetAttribute and the WebInvokeAttribute to control how the data passed to and from a service operation appears on the wire. Both attributes default to Bare.
