NamedPipeTransportBindingElement Class
Represents the binding element for the named pipe transport.
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
This transport uses URIs of the form "net.pipe://hostname/path". Other URI components are optional.
The NamedPipeTransportBindingElement class is the starting point for creating a custom binding that implements the named pipes transport protocol. This transport is used for on-machine Windows Communication Foundation (WCF)-to-WCF communication.
The WCF service model uses this class to create factory objects that implement the IChannelFactory and IChannelListener interfaces. These factory objects then create and accept the channels that transmit SOAP messages using the named pipes protocol.
You configure the factories that this class creates by setting its properties, such as: ConnectionPoolSettings.
You can also set properties on the base class, ConnectionOrientedTransportBindingElement, such as: MaxBufferSize, TransferMode, and ConnectionBufferSize. For a complete list of properties, see ConnectionOrientedTransportBindingElement.
Finally, you can set properties on the base class of ConnectionOrientedTransportBindingElement, which is TransportBindingElement, such as MaxBufferPoolSize. For a complete list of properties, see TransportBindingElement.
