How to expose a single WCF service with multiple service behaviours? - wcf

Question

I have a WCF service which needs to meet the following requirement:
Endpoint1 : It should use netTCP binding with windows authentication.
Endpoint2 : It should use netTCP binding with Custom User name and password validation.
I was able to do both of these individually by creating two service behaviors, one for Windows authentication and one for user name and password, but this way I have to expose 2 service instead of 1 for the above functionality. I am looking for a way by which I could expose only one service and by different end point configuration, I am able to fulfill the requirement.
Code snippet and configuration would be helpful.

Answer 1

This is one of the scenarios that WCF supports, a single interface exposed as 2 different endpoints.
They will have two different addresses, but will point to the same code.
<service
name="Microsoft.ServiceModel.Samples.CalculatorService"
behaviorConfiguration="CalculatorServiceBehavior">
<!-- This endpoint is exposed at the base address provided by host: http://localhost/servicemodelsamples/service.svc -->
<endpoint address=""
binding="basicHttpBinding"
contract="Microsoft.ServiceModel.Samples.ICalculator" />
<!-- secure endpoint exposed at {base address}/secure: http://localhost/servicemodelsamples/service.svc/secure -->
<endpoint address="secure"
binding="wsHttpBinding"
contract="Microsoft.ServiceModel.Samples.ICalculator" />
...
</service>
