Hi, I am using WCF in a client-server architechture, my server has a UI and is configured as follows:
[ServiceBehavior(UseSynchronizationContext = true, InstanceContextMode = InstanceContextMode.PerSession, ConcurrencyMode = ConcurrencyMode.Multiple)]
Meaning that all calls done from my clients are marshalled to the UI thread to be handled by the server. This makes sense in the context of my application, but I have one call (two-way) in particular that is quite lenghty and that is thread safe (reentrant). I would therefore like my server to handle that specific method asynchronously, but to keep all other client call handling sychronous.
Here are my questions:
1) Is it possible to configure my server to globally use the UI thread to synchronize the calls (UseSynchronizationContext = true), but to override that property on a per-call basis to specify a few methods that should be handled asynchronously?
2) If it is possible to configure the synchronization mode at the method level, can it be done in the config file of my server?
Thanks in advance.
