Using 2 WCF interfaces in the same svc file

Question

We are trying to communicate with an external WCF service.

The WCF services are exposed via svc files. It appears that there are 2 interfaces exposed via the same svc file.

How can we configure this in the web.config file?

Answer 1

If I understand your question correctly, you have a single class that implements 2 WCF service contracts. In your web.config, you configure an endpoint for each service contract, but under the same <service> node. I've only done this when self-hosting WCF services, not in IIS, but I think if you specify a value for address in your endpoint configuration, it will make it relative to the location of the .svc file:

<service name="YourServiceLibrary.YourServiceClass">
  <endpoint address="Service1"
    contract="YourServiceLibrary.IService1"
    ...
     />
  <endpoint address="Service2"
    contract="YourServiceLibrary.IService2"
    ...
     />
</service>

You would then setup your client proxies for each service contract to point to http://YourServer/YourServicePath/YourServiceClass.svc/Service1 and http://YourServer/YourServicePath/YourServiceClass.svc/Service2
