[RESOLVED] WCF Service Contracts

Hi,

I've been reading up on WCF online / books etc.

If possible, please could you let me know if the following is correct.

1. A Service Contract is created in the form of an interface by decorating it with the ServiceContract / OperationContract attributes etc.

2. The implementation for this interface is then provided in a class.

3. The endpoint is configured in the following format:

<endpoint address="http://localhost:8080/somename/somenameservice"
binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="somename.somename.InterfaceName"

My question is: In the 'Contract' section of the endpoint, is this specifying that only methods/members of a class that implements the InterFace created earlier can be invoked by a client application attempting to consume the service?

For example if my interface (IMyInterface) includes a method called GetName()
I then implement this in a class.
I then provide the following endpoint contract:
contract="somename.somename.IMyInterface"

Does this mean that my client app can use only the method specified in the Interface name specified in the contract above (IMyInterface)?

Thanks

Hope this makes sense.

Yep that is correct, your client can only call the methods in the interface that are decorated with the OperationContract attribute

Thanks for your help.
