Hi,

I have a WCF service written which has a wsHttpBinding. Now i want this binding to use SOAP 1.1 protocol.

Can i achieve this by any means.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Hi

wsHttpBinding is based on Soap 1.2.

 

You can use BasicHttpBinding which is based on Soap 1.1

 

 

Thanks

Hi Pankaj,

Thanks for the reply. I know that we can use BasicHttpBinding. But i want to use wsHttpBinding with support to SOAP 1.1

Answer 3

As Pankaj mentioned, you can't. WSHttpBinding only supports SOAP 1.2. You can, however, add a new endpoint to your service using basicHttpBinding, which would support SOAP 1.1.

Answer 4

Hi Rajesh ,


It's very true that WSHttpBinding only supports SOAP 1.2 and it can't be changed.

But if it is required to use the protocol Soap 1.1 with WSHttpBinding ,  then you can change the schema for the SOAP envelope in SOAP responses generated by WCF using WCF extensibility model.

You should convert your WSHttpBinding to a customBinding which you can customize for Soap1.1. See here:
