Hopefully a simple question, but I have a simple app that is self-hosted (which works fine), and I can hit the requested method using a POST without parameters from the body (which hits the method but defaults the parameter to null), but when I try to pass the named parameter in the BODY of the POST request in raw JSON format, it receives a 400 response, and never hits the method for some reason...
Any advice is appreciated.
[Environment: Visual Studio 2015, C#, self hosted REST application]
[Code Details]
(Web service hosting code for Self Hosted app)
WebServiceHost host = new WebServiceHost(typeof(CalculatorServiceREST), new Uri("http://localhost:8000"));
ServiceEndpoint ep = host.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(ICalculator), new WebHttpBinding(), "");
ServiceDebugBehavior stp = host.Description.Behaviors.Find<ServiceDebugBehavior>();
stp.HttpHelpPageEnabled = false;
host.Open();
Console.WriteLine("Service is up and running");
Console.WriteLine("Press enter to quit ");
Console.ReadLine();
host.Close();
(The contracts implementation class: CalculatorServiceRest.cs)
public class CalculatorServiceREST : ICalculator
{
[WebInvoke(Method = "POST")] // POST to: /RoundUp (with BODY item of 'number' in the request)
public int RoundUp(double number)
{
return Convert.ToInt32(Math.Round(number));
}
[HttpPost] // POST to: /GetName (with BODY item of 'number' in the request)
public string GetName(string name)
{
return name;
}
}
