The Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) service enables to manage the interoperability of the distributed applications and also supports the service oriented architecture. In this post I will illustrate the various steps required for creating, implementing and hosting of WCF. And also learn about creating the WCF client, its configuration and consuming the WCF service in an application. Let's understand the steps involved in Creating and Running a WCF service. The Microsoft Visual Studio also contains pre-built template for creating the WCF service that can be created and implemented by following few wizard steps. Here we will use a C# class to create the WCF service, then will create a client application to consume the methods exposed by the WCF service. Following are the steps that we will cover to create a working WCF service: Defining Service Contract in WCF: the first step to create a WCF service contract using a C# interface that will outline the functionality offe...
