Calling a WCF service from Non-WCF

[Jeronimo Bertran]

Hello,

I have a WCF service that I am using to upload files to a server by using
the streamed transfer method. I am currently calling the service from a
WCF client. All I did was add a Service Refrence to my Windows Forms
project using VS2008.

I now want to allow non WCF clients to use the service. How can I do this?

Thanks,

Jeronimo

What is a non WCF client? Assuming its a .NET client not using .NET 3.0 (ex:
limited by Win 2000) then expose a new endpoint with basicHttpBinding. On
the client side, use "Add Web Reference".

What type of channel are you using?

I believe non-WCF compatible clients can only talk through web services
(basicHTTPBinding).

Here it is.

<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="FileTransferServicesBinding" sendTimeout="00:15:00"
transferMode="Streamed" messageEncoding="Mtom"
maxReceivedMessageSize="524288000" maxBufferSize="524288000" />
</basicHttpBinding>

Does your client support MTOM?

If it's regular .NET, you'll need to use WSE 3.0, not sure about Java or
other languages.
