POEncapsulating WCF Proxies in Static Classes
text
Body
copied!<p>I am designing a web service which will call different external web services according to the properties of a given object (a "request", for instance). A reference to these web services is added through the "Add Web Reference" menu in Visual Studio 2008, which, as you know, creates a proxy class for each endpoint which inherits from <code>System.ServiceModel.ChannelBase<ISomeInterface></code> (where <code>ISomeInterface</code> is the endpoint defined by the specific service's WSDL).</p> <p>The question is that I would like to encapsulate all those proxies in a single <code>ServiceManager</code> (for instance) static class containing, for example, an internal list of all the proxies, so that, on the one hand, all calls to a given service may go through <code>ServiceManager</code> instead of being scattered around the main application, and, on the other hand, new services which may be added latter can be made known to <code>ServiceManager</code> by a simple addition of a reference to the new proxy class.</p> <p>I thought about desinging <code>ServiceManager</code> like</p> <pre><code>public static class ServiceManager { #region Properties public static Dictionary<string, TProxy> ServiceList { get; private set; } #endregion } </code></pre> <p>but I don't know what I should replace <code>TProxy</code> by so that all of the different proxies can be called by using <code>ServiceManager.ServiceList["ServiceName"]</code>. Can anyone please help me out with this?</p>
