WebMethodAttribute Constructor (Boolean, TransactionOption, Int32)
.NET Framework 4
Initializes a new instance of the WebMethodAttribute class.
Assembly: System.Web.Services (in System.Web.Services.dll)
public WebMethodAttribute( bool enableSession, TransactionOption transactionOption, int cacheDuration )
Parameters
- enableSession
- Type: System.Boolean
Initializes whether session state is enabled for the XML Web service method.
- transactionOption
- Type: System.EnterpriseServices.TransactionOption
Initializes the transaction support of an XML Web service method.
- cacheDuration
- Type: System.Int32
Initializes the number of seconds the response is cached.
A web service call can only be the root of a transaction, due to the stateless nature of the HTTP protocol. This means that the following two settings are equivalent, with each call creating a new transaction:
[WebMethod(TransactionOption = TransactionOption.Required)] [WebMethod(TransactionOption = TransactionOption.RequiresNew)]
It also means that all the following settings are equivalent; meaning no transaction support:
[WebMethod] // TransactionOption.Disabled is the default [WebMethod(TransactionOption = TransactionOption.Disabled)] [WebMethod(TransactionOption = Transaction.NotSupported)] [WebMethod(TransactionOption = Transaction.Supported)]
<%@ WebService Language="C#" Class="Counter" %> <%@ assembly name="System.EnterpriseServices,Version=1.0.3300.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" %> using System.Web.Services; using System; using System.Web; using System.EnterpriseServices; public class Counter : WebService { [ WebMethod(true,TransactionOption.NotSupported,60) ] public int ServiceUsage() { // If the XML Web service has not been accessed, initialize it to 1. if (Application["MyServiceUsage"] == null) { Application["MyServiceUsage"] = 1; } else { // Increment the usage count. Application["MyServiceUsage"] = ((int) Application["MyServiceUsage"]) + 1; } // Return the usage count. return (int) Application["MyServiceUsage"]; } }
