'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class Endpoint
    Inherits ScriptNameObjectBase
    Implements ICreatable, IAlterable, IDroppable, IScriptable, _
    IObjectPermission

public sealed class Endpoint : ScriptNameObjectBase, ICreatable, IAlterable, IDroppable, 
    IScriptable, IObjectPermission

public ref class Endpoint sealed : public ScriptNameObjectBase, ICreatable, IAlterable, IDroppable, 
    IScriptable, IObjectPermission

public final class Endpoint extends ScriptNameObjectBase implements ICreatable, IAlterable, 
    IDroppable, IScriptable, IObjectPermission

public final class Endpoint extends ScriptNameObjectBase implements ICreatable, IAlterable, 
    IDroppable, IScriptable, IObjectPermission

Remarks

Updated text:

The Endpoint object can be used to create an endpoint service for the following payload types:

• SOAP

• Service Broker

• Transact-SQL

• Database mirroring

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the Microsoft .NET Framework.

To get Endpoint object properties, users can be a member or the public fixed server role.

To set Endpoint object properties, users must be the owner of the endpoint, have ALTER ANY ENDPONT permission on the server, or be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.

To create an endpoint, users must have CREATE ANY ENDPOINT permission on the server or be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.

To drop an endpoint, users must have CONTROL permission on the endpoint or be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.

To stop, start, or disable an endpoint, users must be the owner of the endpoint, have ALTER ANY ENDPOINT permission on the server or be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.
