我喜欢在using块中实例化我的WCF服务客户端,因为它几乎是使用实现IDisposable的资源的标准方式:

using (var client = new SomeWCFServiceClient()) 
{
    //Do something with the client 
}

但是,正如这篇MSDN文章中提到的,将WCF客户端包装在using块中可能会掩盖导致客户端处于故障状态(如超时或通信问题)的任何错误。长话短说,当调用Dispose()时,客户端的Close()方法会触发,但会抛出一个错误,因为它处于故障状态。然后,原始异常被第二个异常掩盖。不好的。

在MSDN文章中建议的解决方法是完全避免使用using块,而是实例化你的客户端,并像这样使用它们:

try
{
    ...
    client.Close();
}
catch (CommunicationException e)
{
    ...
    client.Abort();
}
catch (TimeoutException e)
{
    ...
    client.Abort();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
    ...
    client.Abort();
    throw;
}

与using块相比,我认为它很难看。每次需要客户端时都要写大量代码。

幸运的是,我找到了一些其他的解决方法,比如IServiceOriented博客上的这个(现在已经不存在了)。你可以这样开始:

public delegate void UseServiceDelegate<T>(T proxy); 

public static class Service<T> 
{ 
    public static ChannelFactory<T> _channelFactory = new ChannelFactory<T>(""); 
    
    public static void Use(UseServiceDelegate<T> codeBlock) 
    { 
        IClientChannel proxy = (IClientChannel)_channelFactory.CreateChannel(); 
        bool success = false; 
        try 
        { 
            codeBlock((T)proxy); 
            proxy.Close(); 
            success = true; 
        } 
        finally 
        { 
            if (!success) 
            { 
                proxy.Abort(); 
            } 
        } 
     } 
} 

这就允许:

Service<IOrderService>.Use(orderService => 
{ 
    orderService.PlaceOrder(request); 
}); 

这还不错,但我不认为它像using块那样具有表现力和易于理解。

我目前正在尝试使用的解决方法是我第一次在blog.davidbarret.net上读到的。基本上,无论在哪里使用客户机的Dispose()方法,都要重写它。喜欢的东西:

public partial class SomeWCFServiceClient : IDisposable
{
    void IDisposable.Dispose() 
    {
        if (this.State == CommunicationState.Faulted) 
        {
            this.Abort();
        } 
        else 
        {
            this.Close();
        }
    }
}

这似乎能够允许using块再次出现,而不会有隐藏故障状态异常的危险。

那么,使用这些变通方法还有其他需要注意的问题吗?有没有人想出更好的办法?


当前回答

我喜欢这种结束联系的方式:

var client = new ProxyClient();
try
{
    ...
    client.Close();
}
finally
{
    if(client.State != CommunicationState.Closed)
        client.Abort();
}

其他回答

这是微软推荐的处理WCF客户端调用的方法:

有关更多详细信息,请参见:预期异常

try
{
    ...
    double result = client.Add(value1, value2);
    ...
    client.Close();
}
catch (TimeoutException exception)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Got {0}", exception.GetType());
    client.Abort();
}
catch (CommunicationException exception)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Got {0}", exception.GetType());
    client.Abort();
}

额外的信息 很多人似乎都在WCF上问这个问题,以至于微软甚至创建了一个专门的示例来演示如何处理异常:

WCF c: \ WF_WCF_Samples \ \基本\ Client \ ExpectedExceptions \ CS \客户机

下载示例: c#或VB

考虑到使用语句有这么多的问题,(激烈?)关于这个问题的内部讨论和线程,我不会浪费时间试图成为一个代码牛仔,找到一个更干净的方法。我只是接受它,为我的服务器应用程序以这种冗长(但可信)的方式实现WCF客户机。

可选的附加失败

许多异常派生于CommunicationException,我认为大多数异常都不应该重新尝试。我费力地浏览了MSDN上的每个异常,并找到了一个可重试异常的简短列表(除了上面的TimeOutException)。如果我错过了应该重试的异常,请告诉我。

  // The following is typically thrown on the client when a channel is terminated due to the server closing the connection.
catch (ChannelTerminatedException cte)
{
secureSecretService.Abort();
// todo: Implement delay (backoff) and retry
}

// The following is thrown when a remote endpoint could not be found or reached.  The endpoint may not be found or 
// reachable because the remote endpoint is down, the remote endpoint is unreachable, or because the remote network is unreachable.
catch (EndpointNotFoundException enfe)
{
secureSecretService.Abort();
// todo: Implement delay (backoff) and retry
}

// The following exception that is thrown when a server is too busy to accept a message.
catch (ServerTooBusyException stbe)
{
secureSecretService.Abort();
// todo: Implement delay (backoff) and retry
}

诚然,这是编写的一些普通代码。我目前更喜欢这个答案,并且在代码中没有看到任何可能导致问题的“hack”。

public static class Service<TChannel>
{
    public static ChannelFactory<TChannel> ChannelFactory = new ChannelFactory<TChannel>("*");

    public static TReturn Use<TReturn>(Func<TChannel,TReturn> codeBlock)
    {
        var proxy = (IClientChannel)ChannelFactory.CreateChannel();
        var success = false;
        try
        {
            var result = codeBlock((TChannel)proxy);
            proxy.Close();
            success = true;
            return result;
        }
        finally
        {
            if (!success)
            {
                proxy.Abort();
            }
        }
    }
}

所以它允许很好地编写return语句:

return Service<IOrderService>.Use(orderService => 
{ 
    return orderService.PlaceOrder(request); 
}); 

下面是问题来源的增强版本,并扩展到缓存多个通道工厂,并尝试通过契约名称在配置文件中查找端点。

            {
                return cachedFactories[endpointName];
            }

            var factory = new ChannelFactory<T>(endpointName);

            cachedFactories.Add(endpointName, factory);

            {

            }

            var serviceModel = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None).SectionGroups["system.serviceModel"] as ServiceModelSectionGroup;

            if ((serviceModel != null) && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(fullName))
            {
                foreach (var endpointName in serviceModel.Client.Endpoints.Cast<ChannelEndpointElement>().Where(endpoint => fullName.EndsWith(endpoint.Contract)).Select(endpoint => endpoint.Name))
                {
                    cachedEndpointNames.Add(type, endpointName);
                    return endpointName;
                }
            }
        }

        throw new InvalidOperationException("Could not find endpoint element for type '" + fullName + "' in the ServiceModel client configuration section. This might be because no configuration file was found for your application, or because no endpoint element matching this name could be found in the client element.");
    }
}

我终于找到了一些明确解决这个问题的坚实步骤。

This custom tool extends WCFProxyGenerator to provide an exception handling proxy. It generates an additional proxy called ExceptionHandlingProxy<T> which inherits ExceptionHandlingProxyBase<T> - the latter of which implements the meat of the proxy's functionality. The result is that you can choose to use the default proxy that inherits ClientBase<T> or ExceptionHandlingProxy<T> which encapsulates managing the lifetime of the channel factory and channel. ExceptionHandlingProxy respects your selections in the Add Service Reference dialog with respect to asynchronous methods and collection types.

Codeplex有一个名为异常处理WCF代理生成器的项目。它基本上是在Visual Studio 2008中安装一个新的自定义工具,然后使用该工具生成新的服务代理(添加服务引用)。它有一些很好的功能来处理故障通道、超时和安全处理。这里有一个名为ExceptionHandlingProxyWrapper的优秀视频,详细解释了这是如何工作的。

您可以安全地再次使用Using语句,如果通道在任何请求(TimeoutException或CommunicationException)上发生故障,Wrapper将重新初始化故障通道并重试查询。如果失败,它将调用Abort()命令并处理代理并重新抛出异常。如果服务抛出FaultException代码,它将停止执行,代理将按照预期安全抛出正确的异常。

Given a choice between the solution advocated by IServiceOriented.com and the solution advocated by David Barret's blog, I prefer the simplicity offered by overriding the client's Dispose() method. This allows me to continue to use the using() statement as one would expect with a disposable object. However, as @Brian pointed out, this solution contains a race condition in that the State might not be faulted when it is checked but could be by the time Close() is called, in which case the CommunicationException still occurs.

因此,为了解决这个问题,我采用了一种混合了两种方法的解决方案。

void IDisposable.Dispose()
{
    bool success = false;
    try 
    {
        if (State != CommunicationState.Faulted) 
        {
            Close();
            success = true;
        }
    } 
    finally 
    {
        if (!success) 
            Abort();
    }
}
