I'm trying to implement a self-host WCF service in a console app. The first step is that I tried to implement a helloworld app first. However, It seems I couldn't reference the key word or class in System.ServiceModel. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? Below is my code. Keyword "ServiceHost" cannot be found now.
using System;
using System.ServiceModel;
namespace selfHost
{
[ServiceContract]
public interface IHelloWorldService
{
[OperationContract]
string SayHello(string name);
}
public class HelloWorldService : IHelloWorldService
{
public string SayHello(string name)
{
return string.Format("Hello, {0}", name);
}
}
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Uri baseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost:8080/hello");
// Create the ServiceHost.
using (ServiceHost host = new ServiceHost(typeof(HelloWorldService), baseAddress))
{
// Enable metadata publishing.
ServiceMetadataBehavior smb = new ServiceMetadataBehavior();
smb.HttpGetEnabled = true;
smb.MetadataExporter.PolicyVersion = PolicyVersion.Policy15;
host.Description.Behaviors.Add(smb);
// Open the ServiceHost to start listening for messages. Since
// no endpoints are explicitly configured, the runtime will create
// one endpoint per base address for each service contract implemented
// by the service.
host.Open();
Console.WriteLine("The service is ready at {0}", baseAddress);
Console.WriteLine("Press <Enter> to stop the service.");
Console.ReadLine();
// Close the ServiceHost.
host.Close();
}
}
}
}
