“Whether this is the first time or the fifty-first time you’re using WCF, you’ll learn something new by reading this book.” --Nicholas Allen, Program Manager, Web Services, Microsoft. Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) simplifies the production and consumption of Web services on the Microsoft platform. With the extensive revamp in .NET 3.5 and the powerful tools offered by Visual Studio 2008, this resource is essential for developers looking to maximize their use of WCF. Drawing from their extensive experience with early adopters, three Microsoft insiders provide practical advice, best practices, tips, and tricks for addressing common challenges in WCF development. The authors offer detailed explanations and solutions to the "pain points" developers encounter, along with a wealth of reusable code examples. The book covers a wide range of topics, including contracts, channels, bindings, behaviors, serialization, hosting, security, diagnostics, exception handling, workflow services, peer networking, and the programmable web. The authors—Steve Resnick, Richard Crane, and Chris Bowen—are seasoned experts at the Microsoft Technology Center in Boston, specializing in enhancing technical agility through WCF and related technologies. Their combined experience spans over 15 years in various roles, making this guide a valuable asset for developers at any level.
