    gRPC + ASP.NET Core as a Migration Path for WCFs in .NET Core
    gRPC + ASP.NET Core as a Migration Path for WCFs in .NET Core
    Premier DeveloperPremier DeveloperAugust 21, 2019Aug 21, 201908/21/19
    The intended audience for this blog post is one who wants to migrate from the full .Net Framework to .NET Core and has a large library of WCFs, now considered technical debt. This post will attempt to at least partially answer the question: How difficult will it be to migrate my current code base of WCFs to gRPC in .NET Core?

    GZip encoder for Compact WCF
    AvatarAndrew ArnottSeptember 30, 2008Sep 30, 200809/30/08
    The GZip encoder is not included in NetCF as it is on the desktop WCF, but it isn't hard to build yourself and in fact we have released a sample of exactly how to add your own GZip encoder to NetCF: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=108652 So many people have asked me for it lately I thought I'd better just post the link.  Have...

    Using the XmlSerializer as an XmlObjectSerializer with WCF
    Using the XmlSerializer as an XmlObjectSerializer with WCF
    AvatarAndrew ArnottJanuary 18, 2008Jan 18, 200801/18/08
    The Windows Communication Foundation introduced the new DataContractSerializer to replace the XmlSerializer in many scenarios.  The DataContractSerializer is faster than the XmlSerializer, but has certain limitations.  For example it does not support serializing an object's members as XML attributes.  When you write a WCF client that calls ...

    What do you think of the new WCF ‘Store and forward’ Mail Transport?
    AvatarAndrew ArnottOctober 29, 2007Oct 29, 200710/29/07
    With the .NET Compact Framework 3.5 release which comes with Visual Studio 2008, a new Windows Communication Foundation transport is introduced that uses email as the communication mechanism. Others have already blogged about this new transport including Roman Batoukov and David Kline. I'd like to take a poll of the audience to see how ...

    AvatarAndrew ArnottSeptember 12, 2007Sep 12, 200709/12/07
    The .NET Compact Framework 3.5 adds a subset of the Windows Communication Foundation (WCF or "Indigo") to smart devices, allowing them to communicate with desktop WCF components with all the flexibility of multiple, interchangeable service bindings and endpoints.  Although it ships out of the box only with support for message-level ...
