Is this really a WCF application and not Web API 2 as originally stated?
I inherited this code and I was told it was Web API 2. But that could be wrong.
What I'm trying to do is handle HEAD requests because that is used to see if our RESTful service is alive. Everything else in it works fine, just need to add this.
The service.cs is (just the key parts):
[ServiceContract]
[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)]
[ServiceBehavior(InstanceContextMode = InstanceContextMode.PerCall)]
// NOTE: If this class is renamed, remember to update the global.asax.cs file
public class Service
{
[WebGet(UriTemplate = "")]
public string GetTest()
{
return $"Windward update REST service version {AssmVersion}; " +
$"Newest AutoTag version: {ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["AutoTagVersion"]}; -- " +
$"Most recent exception {mostRecentTime:G} : {mostRecentError}";
}
[WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "Service/version", Method = "POST", RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Xml,
ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Xml, BodyStyle = WebMessageBodyStyle.Bare)]
public XmlElement GetVersion(XmlElement root)
{
// ...
}
}
And Global.asax.cs is:
public class Global : HttpApplication
{
private static ILog log;
void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
RegisterRoutes();
log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure();
log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(Global));
log.Info($"Update REST server version {VersionNumbers.VERSION_STR} started, running under user {WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name}");
}
private void RegisterRoutes()
{
// The class providing the REST service
RouteTable.Routes.Add(new ServiceRoute("", new WebServiceHostFactory(), typeof(Service)));
}
void Application_End(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
log?.Info("update REST server closed");
}
void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
log?.Error($"Application_Error({sender}, {e})");
}
}
So do you think this is WCF?
