The ReceiveActivity activity is used when a workflow implements an operation defined in a WCF service contract. The ReceiveActivity can implement an operation from an already defined service contract or can define the service contract and operation within the workflow itself. The latter is known as a workflow-first contract.

The ReceiveActivity activity supports a set of predefined message exchange patterns. These patterns include:

• One-way receive

  The client that sends the message does not expect the service to send a response. The contract operation should have a void return type.

• Receive request - Send response

  After a message is received and processed by the ReceiveActivity activity, a response is sent back to the client. When the contract operation has a void return type, an acknowledgement is sent back to the send activity.

• Receive request - Send fault

  After a message is received and processed by the ReceiveActivity activity, a response or a fault is sent back to the client.
