copied!<p>Although I can't find anything <em>specifically</em> on 4.0 vs 4.5, the link you referenced shows a config file first for 3.0 and then one for 4.5.</p> <p>Beginning with 4.0, simplified config files were introduced that had the concepts of default bindings and default endpoints - meaning that you could create an out-of-the-box WCF service application in 4.0 or 4.5 and there would be no binding or endpoint defined - you can verify this by looking at the web.config files for your 4.0 and 4.5 service.</p> <p>When you add a service reference, you most likely used an "http://" URI - by default, "http" maps to <code>basicHttpBinding</code>. So let's look at the snippet you posted in the comments:</p> <pre><code> <endpoint address="localhost:36275/Service1.svc" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_IService1" contract="ServiceReference1.IService1" name="BasicHttpBinding_IService1" /> </code></pre> <p>Everything the client needs to communicate with the service is there - the address, the binding to use, the binding configuration to use and the contract.</p> <p>If you look in the client config file, you should see the following as well:</p> <pre><code><bindings> <basicHttpBinding> <binding name="BasicHttpBinding_IService1" /> </basicHttpBinding> </bindings> </code></pre> <p>Which corresponds to the binding specified by the endpoint's <code>bindingConfiguration</code> attribute. Since the defaults are being used, the other properties for the binding are not specified.</p> <p>In 3.0 and 3.5, the binding section would have had all the properties of the binding specified with default values - in 4.0 and later it does not.</p> <p>You're not missing anything - other than the documentation being a little misleading in that it implies this is a 4.5 feature, when it reality it's a 4.0 and 4.5 feature.</p>
