Namespace: System.ServiceModel
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Enumeration OperationFormatStyle
public enum OperationFormatStyle
Members
Member name | Description | |
---|---|---|
Document | Causes the WSDL representation to contain a single element that represents the document that is exchanged for the operation. | |
Rpc | Causes the WSDL representation of messages exchanged for an operation and contains parameters as if it were a remote procedure call. |
Remarks
By default, the message body is formatted with the style set to Document. The style RPC means that the WSDL representation of messages exchanged for an operation contains parameters as if it were a remote procedure call. The following is an example.
<wsdl:message name="IUseAndStyleCalculator_Add_InputMessage">
<wsdl:part name="n1" type="xsd:double"/>
<wsdl:part name="n2" type="xsd:double"/>
</wsdl:message>
Setting the style to Document means that the WSDL representation contains a single element that represents the document that is exchanged for an operation, as shown in the following example.
<wsdl:message name="IUseAndStyleCalculator_Add_InputMessage">
<wsdl:part name="parameters" element="tns:Add"/>
</wsdl:message>
Use the System.ServiceModel.XmlSerializerFormatAttribute to set this value.
