How can I get the information about WCF REST service method details on client side
For Ex: I have a method
string GetDetails(string fname)
then my client application will show what is the return type of the function(string in this case), parameters required (fname) along with the name of the function(GetDetails).
You can say I want to create a WCF Test Client application for WCF REST service.
Thanks in advance!

I am developing the SSRS report and wanted to consume the one method call of the WCF service. Suppose I have a service Url like http:\\localhost\2014\security.svc and wanted to consume string Encrypt(string data) method from that service.
Now I know how to use XML and Web service as the data source. I don't want that what I want is to call the web service to get the some values encrypted on the report so I can use the expression to set the encrypted values for the some fields. In case of confusion feel free to leave a comment. Any help would be great .
I am very new in wcf web service ...... I want to know which data types are allowed to return from wcf web service. for example can I return an object from method .....
I have a requirement where I should write WCF service that is called by another external service, which code is not under my control. I only know that my service is called by that external service in this way:
string content = client.getData("http://localhost:1111/Service.svc", param);
My service is located at the address that is actually first parameter in external service method, which means my service was called somewhere inside the body of external service method.
So, my question is - how can I be signaled inside my service that my service was called by that external service?
1) you can create two endpoint for different clients (real client and external servise)
2) you can write specific behavior and realize functionality by additional paramert which will be only into behaviors
I am creating a wcf service in .net. In the service I have added function named XYZ as:
public int XYZ(int a){
return a+a;
}
When i added the web reference of web service in my web application and accessed the function XYZ, here it requires two parameters one is of int type and second is of bool type.
But originally i had added single parameter in XYZ function in wcf service.
If someone has idea then please let me know that how to handle this. Because my wcf service will be called from flash code.
If you are adding a Web Reference to your project instead of Service Reference then you'll get "extra" parameters as described here. You should be adding a Service Reference to create a proxy for your service that matches the WCF ServiceContract description of your service. Also, the "extra" parameters only show up for ASMX-based clients. They won't be required for the Flash client to call the WCF Service.
I have a class, in which I have a service reference (WCF) to an ASMX web service.
This obviously generates local proxy methods such as
string DoSomething(string someParameter, string someOtherParameter)
I have a method that receives a WCF message class already representing a call to this service, which I simply need to forward
I could of course use XmlDictionaryReader to extract the information from the WCF message, deserialise into the proxy classes and pass those into the proxy method, but as these will simply get serialised back it seems very wasteful
How can I call the service using the already serialised message? (I assume I will need to modify the soap action on the incoming message)
There's a two-part series on how to build a WCF router on MSDN - maybe that helps? Seems like that's more or less what you're trying to do - use a WCF service to basically route a message on to a second service (ASMX in your case).
