Classes Supporting WCF Client Connections

Several PowerScript system classes provide all the support required for WCF client connections from PowerBuilder .NET applications.

The objects created from these classes enable you to select and modify the binding types, transport modes, and message security settings for WCF or Web service connections.

• BasicHttpMessageSecurity Class
  The BasicHttpMessageSecurity class enables you to get and configure the message security settings of a BasicHttpBinding binding for a WCF client.
• BasicHttpSecurity Class
  The BasicHttpSecurity class configures the security settings of a BasicHttpBinding binding for a WCF client.
• ClientCertificateCredential Class
  The ClientCertificateCredential class enables you to select a client certificate for a secure connection to a WCF or Web service.
• HttpTransportSecurity Class
  The HttpTransportSecurity class enables you to get and configure transport security settings for a WCF or Web service that uses BasicHttpBinding or wsHttpBinding bindings.
• HttpDigestCredential Class
  The HttpDigestCredential class provides credential information that allows a WCF client to use a proxy server, or connect to a WCF or Web service that requires digest authentication.
• MessageSecurityOverTcp Class
  The MessageSecurity class configures message-level security settings for a message sent using TCP transport.
• NamedPipeTransportSecurity Class
  The NamedPipeTransportSecurity class provides a property to control the protection level for a named pipe.
• NetNamedPipeSecurity Class
  The NetNamedPipeSecurity class configures the security settings for endpoints with the NetNamedPipeBinding binding.
• NetTcpSecurity Class
  The NetTcpSecurity class configures the security settings of a NetTcpBinding binding for a WCF client and WCF service.
• NoDualHttpMessageSecurity Class
  The NoDualHttpMessageSecurity class represents message-level security settings over an HTTP protocol where security is not set for two-way communication.
• ServiceCertificateCredential Class
  The ServiceCertificateCredential class provides a client certificate for a secure connection to a service. Use this class instead of the ClientCredentialService class when message-level security is enabled for the service.
• TcpTransportSecurity Class
  The TcpTransportSecurity class provides properties to control authentication parameters and the protection level for TCP transport. Use it, instead of the HttpTransportSecurity class, to set the transport-level security for service bindings that use TCP for message delivery.
• UserNameCredential Class
  The UserNameCredential class provides a user name, password, and domain name that enable you to authenticate a client to a WCF or Web service, or to a proxy server.
• WCFBasicHttpBinding Class
  Use the WCFBasicHttpBinding class for communication between a WCF client and ASMX-based Web services or other services that conform to the WS-I Basic Profile 1.1.
• WCFClientCredential Class
  The WCFClientCredential class provides client credentials for a service or a proxy server that is behind a firewall.
• WCFConnection Class
  The WCFConnection class specifies the properties required for a WCF client to connect to a WCF or Web service. WCFConnection is the base class for the WCFConnection object.
• WCFEndpointAddress Class
  The WCFEndpointAddress class provides a unique network address that a client uses to communicate with a service endpoint.
• WCFEndpointIdentity Class
  The WCFEndpointIdentity class defines the identity type and value of an endpoint, enabling authentication by clients exchanging messages with it.
• WCFSoapMessageHeader Class
  WCFSoapMessageHeader adds a SOAP header for the service request. This class enables you to change the encryption algorithm and key used in the header.
• WCFnetNamedPipeBinding Class
  The WCFnetNamedPipeBinding class provides a secure binding that is optimized for on-machine use.
• WCFnetTCPBinding Class
  The WCFnetTCPBinding class enables you to communicate with WCF Web services from a WCF client using NetTcpBinding. This binding is intended only for WCF-to-WCF communication.
• WCFProxyServer Class
  If you connect to a service from behind a proxy server, you must first instantiate an object of the WCFProxyServer class. This class provides credential information to the proxy server.
• WCFReaderQuotas Class
  The WCFReaderQuotas class defines restrictions (quotas) for the complexity of message exchanges with service endpoints that you can set differently according to the binding type used.
• WCFReliableSession Class
  The WCFReliableSession class allows you to use reliable messaging for your service connections, as long as the binding type you are using supports the WS-ReliableMessaging protocol. WCFReliableSession also lets you get and set message ordering and duration.
• WCFwsHttpBinding Class
  The WCFwsHttpBinding class enables you to communicate with WCF or Web services using the wsHttpBinding binding. This binding provides transaction capability, reliable messaging, WS-Addressing, and message security.
• WindowsCredential Class
  The WindowsCredential class provides credential information that allows a WCF client to use a proxy server or connect to a service that requires integrated Windows authentication.
• wsHttpSecurity Class
  The wsHttpSecurity class provides the security settings for communications between a WCF client and a service using the wsHttpBinding binding.
