The TeamFoundationHttpHandler type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	TeamFoundationHttpHandler	The TeamFoundationHttpHandler base class constructor is protected forcing only derived class creation. This constructor validates that we are running in a TeamFoundationApplication and gathers some context information for the service execution.

Properties

	Name	Description
	IsReusable	TeamFoundationHttpHandler's are not re-usable. (We want the constructor above to be called on every request so that members like m_requestContext will be set up for the current request, not the first request we handled.)
	RequestContext	The RequestContext associated with this Web service request.

Methods

	Name	Description
	EnterMethod	EnterMethod is used to note the start of the Handler to define information about the handler being executed
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	HandleException	This basic WebService ExceptionHandler captures the exception and records it in the request Context for future logging. Services may decide to over-ride this method, perform some actions based on the exception, changing the exception, eating it or just letting it pass.
	LeaveMethod	LeaveMethod should be called as the last block of code in the execution of the WebMethod's scope.
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ProcessRequest	The derived class must implement the ProcessRequest method
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
