Examples

The following example shows the part of the configuration file that contains the section for the NetNamedPipeBinding with values set to defaults.

The following example shows how to programmatically use the NetNamedPipeBinding class.

[ServiceContract(Namespace = "http://UE.Samples")]
public interface ICalculator
{
    [OperationContract]
    double Add(double n1, double n2);
}

// Service class which implements the service contract.
public class CalculatorService : ICalculator
{
    public double Add(double n1, double n2)
    {
        return n1 + n2;
    }

    public static void Main()
    {
        Uri baseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost:8000/uesamples/service");
        string address = "net.pipe://localhost/uesamples/calc";

        // Create a ServiceHost for the CalculatorService type and provide the base address.
        using (ServiceHost serviceHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(CalculatorService), baseAddress))
        {
            NetNamedPipeBinding binding = new NetNamedPipeBinding(NetNamedPipeSecurityMode.None);
            serviceHost.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(ICalculator), binding, address);

            // Add a mex endpoint
            ServiceMetadataBehavior smb = new ServiceMetadataBehavior();
            smb.HttpGetEnabled = true;
            smb.HttpGetUrl = new Uri("http://localhost:8001/uesamples");
            serviceHost.Description.Behaviors.Add(smb);

    long maxBufferPoolSize = binding.MaxBufferPoolSize;

    int maxBufferSize = binding.MaxBufferSize;

    int maxConnections = binding.MaxConnections;

    long maxReceivedMessageSize =
        binding.MaxReceivedMessageSize;

    NetNamedPipeSecurity security = binding.Security;

    string scheme = binding.Scheme;

    XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas readerQuotas =
        binding.ReaderQuotas;

    BindingElementCollection bCollection = binding.CreateBindingElements();

    HostNameComparisonMode hostNameComparisonMode =
        binding.HostNameComparisonMode;

    bool TransactionFlow = binding.TransactionFlow;

    TransactionProtocol transactionProtocol =
        binding.TransactionProtocol;

    EnvelopeVersion envelopeVersion =
        binding.EnvelopeVersion;

    TransferMode transferMode =
        binding.TransferMode;

            serviceHost.Open();

            Console.WriteLine("The service is ready.");
            Console.WriteLine("Press <ENTER> to terminate service.");
            Console.WriteLine();
            Console.ReadLine();

            serviceHost.Close();
        }
    }

static void SnippetReceiveSynchronously ()
{

    NetNamedPipeBinding binding = new NetNamedPipeBinding();
    IBindingRuntimePreferences s  =
           binding.GetProperty<IBindingRuntimePreferences>
           (new BindingParameterCollection());
    bool receiveSynchronously = s.ReceiveSynchronously;

}
}

Remarks

The NetNamedPipeBinding generates a run-time communication stack by default, which uses transport security, named pipes for message delivery, and a binary message encoding. This binding is an appropriate Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) system-provided choice for on-machine communication. It also supports transactions.

The default configuration for the NetNamedPipeBinding is similar to the configuration provided by the NetTcpBinding, but it is simpler because the WCF implementation is only meant for on-machine use and consequently there are fewer exposed features. The most notable difference is that the SecurityMode setting only offers the None and Transport options. SOAP security support is not an included option. The security behavior is configurable using the optional securityMode parameter in NetNamedPipeBinding(NetNamedPipeSecurityMode) the constructor.

Constructors

NetNamedPipeBinding()

Initializes a new instance of the NetNamedPipeBinding class.

NetNamedPipeBinding(NetNamedPipeSecurityMode)

Initializes a new instance of the NetNamedPipeBinding class with a specified security mode.

NetNamedPipeBinding(String)

Initializes a new instance of the NetNamedPipeBinding class with a specified configuration name.
