SoapExtension Class
Assembly: System.Web.Services (in system.web.services.dll)
ASP.NET allows a SOAP-related infrastructure to be built by means of an extensibility mechanism. The ASP.NET SOAP extension architecture revolves around an extension that can inspect or modify a message at specific stages in message processing on either the client or the server.
ASP.NET SOAP extensions derive from the SoapExtension class. The GetInitializer and Initialize methods provide alternative mechanisms for initializing the SOAP extension to enhance performance. ProcessMessage is the heart of most SOAP extensions, as the method is called at each stage defined in SoapMessageStage, allowing the SOAP extension to perform the desired behavior of that specific SOAP extension. For SOAP extensions that need to modify the SOAP request or SOAP response, ChainStream provides an opportunity to receive the proposed data to be sent across the wire.
The following TraceExtension SOAP extension outputs the SOAP request and SOAP response to a specified file when applied to an XML Web service method. If the following SOAP extension is installed to run with an XML Web service, the ASPNET user account must have permission to write to the directory in which the log file is written.
