IPolicyExportExtension.ExportPolicy Method

Definition

Implement to include for exporting a custom policy assertion about bindings.

public:
 void ExportPolicy(System::ServiceModel::Description::MetadataExporter ^ exporter, System::ServiceModel::Description::PolicyConversionContext ^ context);
public void ExportPolicy (System.ServiceModel.Description.MetadataExporter exporter, System.ServiceModel.Description.PolicyConversionContext context);
abstract member ExportPolicy : System.ServiceModel.Description.MetadataExporter * System.ServiceModel.Description.PolicyConversionContext -> unit
Public Sub ExportPolicy (exporter As MetadataExporter, context As PolicyConversionContext)

Parameters

exporter
MetadataExporter

The MetadataExporter that you can use to modify the exporting process.

context
PolicyConversionContext

The PolicyConversionContext that you can use to insert your custom policy assertion.

Examples

The following code example shows the implementation of IPolicyExportExtension on a BindingElement. In this example, a custom binding element is attached to the WSDL file at the binding level.

#region IPolicyExporter Members
public void ExportPolicy(MetadataExporter exporter, PolicyConversionContext policyContext)
{
  if (exporter == null)
    throw new NullReferenceException("The MetadataExporter object passed to the ExporterBindingElement is null.");
  if (policyContext == null)
    throw new NullReferenceException("The PolicyConversionContext object passed to the ExporterBindingElement is null.");

  XmlElement elem = doc.CreateElement(name1, ns1);
  elem.InnerText = "My custom text.";
  XmlAttribute att = doc.CreateAttribute("MyCustomAttribute", ns1);
  att.Value = "ExampleValue";
  elem.Attributes.Append(att);
  XmlElement subElement = doc.CreateElement("MyCustomSubElement", ns1);
  subElement.InnerText = "Custom Subelement Text.";
  elem.AppendChild(subElement);
  policyContext.GetBindingAssertions().Add(elem);
  Console.WriteLine("The custom policy exporter was called.");
}
#endregion
#Region "IPolicyExporter Members"
Public Sub ExportPolicy(ByVal exporter As MetadataExporter, ByVal policyContext As PolicyConversionContext) Implements IPolicyExportExtension.ExportPolicy
  If exporter Is Nothing Then
    Throw New NullReferenceException("The MetadataExporter object passed to the ExporterBindingElement is null.")
  End If
  If policyContext Is Nothing Then
    Throw New NullReferenceException("The PolicyConversionContext object passed to the ExporterBindingElement is null.")
  End If

  Dim elem As XmlElement = doc.CreateElement(name1, ns1)
  elem.InnerText = "My custom text."
  Dim att As XmlAttribute = doc.CreateAttribute("MyCustomAttribute", ns1)
  att.Value = "ExampleValue"
  elem.Attributes.Append(att)
  Dim subElement As XmlElement = doc.CreateElement("MyCustomSubElement", ns1)
  subElement.InnerText = "Custom Subelement Text."
  elem.AppendChild(subElement)
  policyContext.GetBindingAssertions().Add(elem)
  Console.WriteLine("The custom policy exporter was called.")
End Sub
#End Region

The following code example shows a System.ServiceModel.Configuration.BindingElementExtensionElement implementation that enables the preceding policy exporter to be loaded from an application configuration file.

public class ExporterBindingElementConfigurationSection : BindingElementExtensionElement
{
  public ExporterBindingElementConfigurationSection()
  { Console.WriteLine("Exporter configuration section created."); }

  public override Type BindingElementType
  { get { return typeof(ExporterBindingElement); } }

  protected override BindingElement CreateBindingElement()
  { return new ExporterBindingElement(); }
}
Public Class ExporterBindingElementConfigurationSection
    Inherits BindingElementExtensionElement
  Public Sub New()
      Console.WriteLine("Exporter configuration section created.")
  End Sub

  Public Overrides ReadOnly Property BindingElementType() As Type
      Get
          Return GetType(ExporterBindingElement)
      End Get
  End Property

  Protected Overrides Function CreateBindingElement() As BindingElement
      Return New ExporterBindingElement()
  End Function
End Class

The following example shows the host configuration file that loads the custom policy exporter.

<system.serviceModel>
  <services>
    <service 
      name="Microsoft.WCF.Documentation.StatefulService"
      behaviorConfiguration="addMetadata"
    >
      <host>
        <baseAddresses>
          <add baseAddress="http://localhost:8080/StatefulService"/>
        </baseAddresses>
      </host>
      <endpoint 
        address="http://localhost:8080/StatefulService" 
        binding="customBinding" 
        bindingConfiguration="exporter" 
        contract="Microsoft.WCF.Documentation.IStatefulService"

         />
      </behavior>
    </serviceBehaviors>
  </behaviors>
  <bindings>
    <customBinding>
      <!-- 
        Use the name attribute of the binding element as 
        the value of the bindingConfiguration attribute in 
        your endpoint.
      -->
      <binding name ="exporter">
        <!-- Use the name attribute of your binding element extension specified below. -->
        <!-- Be certain the order of your custom binding elements is correct. -->
        <exporterBinding />
        <reliableSession/>
        <textMessageEncoding messageVersion="Default" />
        <httpTransport/>
      </binding>
    </customBinding>
  </bindings>
  <extensions>
    <bindingElementExtensions>
      <!-- Use the add element to associate your bindingelement configuration handler and give it a name to use. -->
      <add 
        type="Microsoft.WCF.Documentation.ExporterBindingElementConfigurationSection,PolicyExtensions" 
        name="exporterBinding" />
    </bindingElementExtensions>
  </extensions>
</system.serviceModel>

The following example shows the custom assertion in the WSDL file.

<wsdl:definitions xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/" xmlns:wsp="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/policy"

  namespaces removed here for clarity...

          xmlns="http://Microsoft/WCF/Documentation/CustomPolicyAssertions"           xmlns:b="http://Microsoft/WCF/Documentation/CustomPolicyAssertions">

Remarks

Use the GetBindingAssertions, GetMessageBindingAssertions, and GetOperationBindingAssertions methods to obtain collections of policy assertions that have already been exported at various scopes. Then add your IPolicyExportExtension object to the appropriate collection.
