Extending WebServices and consumers of such with IServerChannelSin

[Johan Johansson (Sweden)]

I know that you can create your own IServerChannelSink and IClientChannelSink
implementations to extend .Net remoting with whatever extra mechanisms you
need, but is it possible to do the same with WebService's and consumers of
such?

The reason I ask is that I need to make encryption-decryption of data sent
between client and server transparant.

And if it's possible to add such sinks, how do I do it? Is it a matter of
configuration and or implementation?

You can get similar functionality through SoapExtensions. A SoapExtension
can modify a message at specific stages on client or server.

As a side-note, WSE 2 (Web Services Enhancements) is a Microsoft-provided
SoapExtension that implements many things, including message encryption.
