EndpointAddress Class
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
Provides a unique network address that a client uses to communicate with a service endpoint.
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
The EndpointAddress type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | EndpointAddress(String) | Initializes a new instance of the EndpointAddress class with a specified URI string. |
| EndpointAddress(Uri, array<AddressHeader>) | Initializes a new instance of the EndpointAddress class with a specified URI and headers. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
  | AnonymousUri | Gets a version-neutral representation of the anonymous URI. |
| Headers | Gets the collection of address headers for the endpoints that the builder can create. |
| IsAnonymous | Gets a value that indicates whether the endpoint is anonymous. |
| IsNone | Gets a value that indicates whether the URI for the endpoint is the NoneUri. |
| NoneUri | Gets a version-neutral URI used for the address of an endpoint to which a message must not be sent. |
| Uri | Gets the URI for the endpoint. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| ApplyTo | Assigns the URI and properties of the endpoint address to the values of the headers of a specified message. |
| Equals | Returns a value that indicates whether a specified object is equivalent to the current endpoint address. (Overrides Object::Equals(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 | Provides a unique hash code for the current endpoint address. (Overrides Object::GetHashCode().) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| ReadFrom | Reads an endpoint address for a specified address version from a specified XML dictionary reader. |
| ToString | Returns a canonical string representation of the URI that is contained in the endpoint address. (Overrides Object::ToString().) |
| WriteContentsTo | Saves all the child nodes of the node to the XML dictionary writer specified. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Equality | Returns a value that indicates whether specified endpoint addresses are not equivalent. |
| Inequality | Returns a value that indicates whether specified endpoint addresses are not equivalent. |
An endpoint address uniquely identifies the endpoint for a service.
The endpoint address belongs to the service endpoint, which also contains the binding, contract and behaviors for the endpoint.
The EndpointAddress contains a URI and address properties that include an identity, WSDL elements, and a collection of optional headers. The optional headers are used to provide additional, more detailed addressing information to identify or interact with the endpoint. For example, they can be used to indicate which instance of a service is to be used to process an incoming message from a particular user when multiple instances are available.
