WCF / ASMX :: Use Asynchonous Web Methods?
Dec 23, 2010
I have an ASP.NET 3.5 web application that uses ASMX web services that are called synchronously. I want to see if I can call them asynchronously because some of the web methods take a long time to process and I'm concerned that this is affecting scalability.
I found this article that explains how to use Asychronous web methods, from 2002: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa480516.aspx. It says:
For asynchronous requests, during reflection the ASMX handler looks for Web methods with a certain kind of signature that it recognizes as being asynchronous. In particular, it looks for a pair of methods that have the following rules:
There is a BeginXXX and EndXXX Web method where XXX is any string that represents the name of the method you want to expose. The BeginXXX function returns an IAsyncResult interface and takes as its last two input parameters an AsyncCallback, and an object respectively. The EndXXX function takes as its only parameter an IAsyncResult interface. Both must be flagged with the WebMethod attribute. When I create the reference to my web service, I don't see any BeginXXX and EndXXX methods. I only see a XXXAsynch method and the article doesn't mention that method. I've done further research and every other article I've found also mentions the BeginXXX and EndXXX web methods.

I was trying to overload two web methods by adding the MessagName descriptor.
[WebMethod(MessageName =
"GetFiles")]
public

But I am getting the following Server Error
Server Error in '/Test.Service' Application.

I need to run 5 different WCF methods but within a transaction. Is this possible in WCF? How can I do this in WCf, if it's possible?
The WCF methods will be called from the web service client, which could be an ASP.Net app or Winfoms app.

What is the best way for authenticating web methods in a web service? Is it right having authentication for every web method and verify user name and password for each web method? Is there a way to authenticate just once not for every web method? something like using sessions and etc?

it may sound a bit newbish question.We have a web service that comunicates with the database and exposes web methods that enables the application to access the database. Each method does only one operation (Insert, Update or Delete). What I need to do is create a transaction that will be consisted of multiple calls to the database, meaning multiple calls of more then one web methods. Can I do that? (I read that if the web method does not throw exception - or ContextUtil.SetAbort() is not called - the transaction will be commited automatically when the web method finishes executing, which I don't want to happen because I want to call another web method in the same transaction, and then manually commit the transaction)

I have some WCF services that I want to return in different formats based on a querystring param. For example, [URL], [URL], [URL], etc... This would make it so that many different types of clients could consume the services whichever way was easiest for them, such as binary for a .NET client and json for an ajax or Flex client.
What I'm thinking is that I can have the WCF web methods return their .NET business objects and not worry about the output mode and then have a behavior that hooks in after returning from the web method which checks the querystring for this param and either:
1. Continues returning the business objects if the mode is dotnet.
2. Converts the business objects to xml if the mode is xml and returns a string of xml.
3. Converts the business objects to json if the mode is json and returns a string of json.

I have an ASMX Web Service set up to use the HTTP GET method. Simple methods which take basic String and Int parameters are working ok, and I can call MyService.asmx/MethodName?Param=Value and get a response back in XML.
However, when I have a method which has a nullable Int (i.e. int?), I get this error:
< Method Name > Web Service method name is not valid.
The error message is confusing, as the method does exist, just not in the GET scope. I presume this is because a nullable type is too complex to be passed via the URL, but I can't find any documentation or SO posts on this.
I appreciate that complex types like Lists or custom classes etc will not work using GET, but I would have assumed that a simple nullable int or nullable datetime could be handled natively, simply by detecting whether it was omitted from the URL. Guess it's not that simple!

which is better approach from performance point of view, is it better to use one web-service method to load data by passing Database Table name and keys or is it better to use separate method for each database table! knowing that i'm using .net asmx through ajax requests.it's obvious that one method is better from OO perspective since it have one function type 'data loading' but what about performance? does IIS affected by that or not? also is it better to make multi web-services 'asmx files' or just one!

We have a customer who are using HP Web Inspect to test for vulnerabilities in our software.
The web inspect tool is complaining about about error messages being returned when a request such as the following is made [URL].
The ASP.Net framework returns a page with the following text content and a 500 status code.
System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.
[code]....
but the error seems not be an unhandled error and so neither 500 page is shown.

I have an extension method as follows:
public static class PageExtensions
{
public static int GetUserId(this Page targetPage)
{
var user = Membership.GetUser(targetPage.User.Identity.Name);
return (int)user.ProviderUserKey;
}
}
Now in a page I need to use this method in a static WebMethod, so I have added another 'extension method' to PageExtensions:
public static int GetUserId()
{
return (int)Membership.GetUser(HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name).ProviderUserKey;
}
and I call it as follows in my WebMethod: PageExtensions.GetUserId()

I am beginner in web applications development. I started one little project and host it on source forge "https://homoco.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/homoco". And I started implementing authentication in this application to learn how it works. From my experience people never use out of the box things so I want to implement this stuff alone (like in real world projects). So some questions:
1) Is there any reason to use membership out of the box? To use database table schema, stored procedures etc. that tool generate for developer. I think that this lower control over code and I decided to implement it my self. I don't know if I am right.
2) Is my approach in this demo project good or bad (if someone have time I like to do just a little code review)? I created database based on business rules. Not using database schema that membership provider require. Extend "MembershipProvider" class to satisfy my needs. Implement queries to database myself.
3) Now, this question is a little wired but I have to ask it. If we make custom Membership Provider and do sql queries alone, implement all MembershipProvider class methods ourselves, and in application use Membership.blabla() why is this approach different from not extending MembershipProvider class and putting all this methods in some unique class and call its methods then? I hope that someone understand what I ask here.
I am sorry for three questions, but I really trying to find the best way to implement this feature in my demo project like it is a real world application.

I want to add another clause to the WHERE statement to restrict Country = @Country so I will need to get that value to the web service.

A customer reported that our asmx web service is continually increasing in memory (mem usage as well as private bytes). We are able to reproduce the problem in our lab with Windows 2003 Server SP2 (fully patched) on some of the machines. The customer is using Windows 2008.
We created a Hello World web service targeting the 2.0 framework built under VS2005 SP1 and a test client that continues to call it. The memory increases steadily - approximately 40K per client request. If the test app is paused, the memory remains the same. When it is closed, the memory drops. Explicit calling of GC.Collect does not drop the memory.
We have run the memory profiler on the service and the leak is all native memory. We have uninstalled/re-installed the Framework on one of the machines but no difference. To our knowledge all of the security and IIS settings are not modified. We have compared app pool, default web site and virtual directory properties to machines that have no problem and they are identical.
