Vista - WCF Custom Transports

09-14-2007

Hi

I have a requirement to have WCF monitor a directory, when a file changes,
read the file contents and pass the raw file contents onto the service for
processing. The service has one method:

void ProcessMethod(object message) { ... }

I figure creating a custom transport might be the go, if the file read or
file contents are invalid, then raise an excpetion logging it to the event
log, there is no need to produce a response. I'm not sure how to go about
implementing this, any ideas?

Try using a Stream instead of a generic object type. This is because it
needs to be serialized.
