BinaryMessageEncodingBindingElement Class
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
The binding element that specifies the .NET Binary Format for XML used to encode messages.
System.ServiceModel.Channels::BindingElement
System.ServiceModel.Channels::MessageEncodingBindingElement
System.ServiceModel.Channels::BinaryMessageEncodingBindingElement
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
The BinaryMessageEncodingBindingElement type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | BinaryMessageEncodingBindingElement | Initializes a new instance of the BinaryMessageEncodingBindingElement class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | MessageVersion | Gets or sets the SOAP message and WS-Addressing versions that are used or expected. (Overrides MessageEncodingBindingElement::MessageVersion.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| BuildChannelFactory<TChannel> | Builds the channel factory stack on the client that creates a specified type of channel for a specified context. (Overrides BindingElement::BuildChannelFactory<TChannel>(BindingContext).) |
| CanBuildChannelFactory<TChannel> | Returns a value that indicates whether the binding element can build a channel factory for a specific type of channel. (Inherited from BindingElement.) |
| Clone | Creates a new BinaryMessageEncodingBindingElement object initialized from the current one. (Overrides BindingElement::Clone().) |
| CreateMessageEncoderFactory | Creates a factory for binary message encoders that employ the SOAP and WS-Addressing versions and the character encoding specified by the current encoding binding element. (Overrides MessageEncodingBindingElement::CreateMessageEncoderFactory().) |
| Equals(Object) | 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 the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetProperty<T> | Returns the typed object requested, if present, from the appropriate layer in the channel stack. (Inherited from MessageEncodingBindingElement.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
Encoding is the process of transforming a message into a sequence of bytes. Decoding is the reverse process. Windows Phone includes two types of encoding for SOAP messages: Text and Binary.
The BinaryMessageEncodingBindingElement is the binding element that specified the .NET Binary Format for XML should be used for encoding messages, and has options to specify the character encoding and the SOAP and WS-Addressing version to be used. Binary encoding is the most efficient but least interoperable of the encoding options.
For more information about
the binding element that specifies messages are encoded using a textual representation of XML, see TextMessageEncodingBindingElement.To implement a custom message encoder, use the MessageEncodingBindingElement class.
