Return Serializable object from FileStream?
I'm a little green when it comes to streaming and serialization...but what I want to do is make the Upload method on the server return a serializable object to the client (it is void right now).
I have a public class ServiceResult that I decorate with [Serializable], and a public class FileTransferService that implements IFileTransferService
[ServiceContract()]
public interface IFileTransferService
{
[OperationContract(IsOneWay = false)]
string Upload(FileTransferRequest request);

The implementation does its thing, and then at the end I create and serialize the object and try to return the string
return ServiceResultSerializer.SerializeAnObject(result);
On the client side I call this service using this class
[System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("System.ServiceModel", "3.0.0.0")]
[System.ServiceModel.ServiceContractAttribute(ConfigurationName = "IFileTransferService")]
public interface IFileTransferService
{
// CODEGEN: Generating message contract since the wrapper name (FileTransferRequest) of message FileTransferRequest does not match the default value (Upload)
[System.ServiceModel.OperationContractAttribute(IsOneWay = false, Action = "http://tempuri.org/IFileTransferService/Upload")]
string Upload(FileTransferRequest request);
}
I'm basically taking this project found on this blog: http://weblogs.asp.net/cibrax/archive/2007/08/29/sending-attachments-with-wcf.aspx
And trying to make it return a value that the client caller can use
I get an error right now that says:
The operation 'Upload' could not be loaded because it has a parameter or return type of type System.ServiceModel.Channels.Message or a type that has MessageContractAttribute and other parameters of different types. When using System.ServiceModel.Channels.Message or types with MessageContractAttribute, the method must not use any other types of parameters.
Which i have no idea what it means :P I think because I'm trying to change the Service parameters.
Sorry if I'm being too general - any help would be greatly appreciated.
It sounds to me like your FileTransferRequest
class has MessageContractAttribute
applied to it.
Since your input parameter has MessageContractAttribute
, your response type should also have MessageContractAttribute
, which String
doesn't. Try creating a FileTransferResponse
class that has a single string-type property, and use that as your return type.
