如何从 SharePoint 2010 正确调用外部 WCF 服务？

Question

I would like to call an external WCF Service from within SharePoint. Using normal WCF calls immediately causes a SocketException (An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host), which can be circumvented with SPSecurity.RunWithElevatePrivileges .

[SocketException (0x2746): An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host]
System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Receive(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size, SocketFlags socketFlags) +85

[CommunicationException: The socket connection was aborted. This could be caused by an error processing your message or a receive timeout being exceeded by the remote host, or an underlying network resource issue. Local socket timeout was '00:00:58.7210000'.]

MyApp.FunctionThatCallsService()

That got me thinking: SharePoint does it, and they do it in a nice way where they have individual service configurations in 14\WebClients .

I reflected and cloned a lot of it (The Extension Methods on the ChannelFactory are used internally all over the place - SPChannelFactoryOperations ), but I wonder: Are the "proper" APIs that SharePoint uses to call it's own WCF Services exposed to external code, so that I can call my non-SharePoint WCF Services from custom SharePoint code?

(This is a farm solution deployed to the GAC, so neither CAS nor Sandboxing applies)

Answer 1

Ended up keeping the SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges section. Microsoft's SPChannelFactoryOperations at some point hit a NullReferenceException, most likely due to Claims required to be setup within the service even when not using it ( SPServiceAuthenticationMode only has SPServiceAuthenticationMode.Claims as a member. The fact that CreateChannelActingAsLoggedOnUser() immediately throws an ArgumentException is a signal that the SPChannelFactoryOperations aren't meant to be used by non-Microsoft code.

Answer 2

I recommend trying to ignore certificates.

Perhaps you need a proxy? Are you having some type of port block problem?
