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

我有我自己的包装器的通道,实现Dispose如下:

public void Dispose()
{
        try
        {
            if (channel.State == CommunicationState.Faulted)
            {
                channel.Abort();
            }
            else
            {
                channel.Close();
            }
        }
        catch (CommunicationException)
        {
            channel.Abort();
        }
        catch (TimeoutException)
        {
            channel.Abort();
        }
        catch (Exception)
        {
            channel.Abort();
            throw;
        }
}

这似乎工作得很好,并允许使用using块。

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”。

我在这篇文章中提到了一些答案,并根据我的需要定制了它。

我想在使用WCF客户端之前做一些事情,所以使用DoSomethingWithClient()方法。

public interface IServiceClientFactory<T>
{
    T DoSomethingWithClient();
}
public partial class ServiceClient : IServiceClientFactory<ServiceClient>
{
    public ServiceClient DoSomethingWithClient()
    {
        var client = this;
        // do somthing here as set client credentials, etc.
        //client.ClientCredentials = ... ;
        return client;
    }
}

下面是helper类:

public static class Service<TClient>
    where TClient : class, ICommunicationObject, IServiceClientFactory<TClient>, new()
{
    public static TReturn Use<TReturn>(Func<TClient, TReturn> codeBlock)
    {
        TClient client = default(TClient);
        bool success = false;
        try
        {
            client = new TClient().DoSomethingWithClient();
            TReturn result = codeBlock(client);
            client.Close();
            success = true;
            return result;
        }
        finally
        {
            if (!success && client != null)
            {
                client.Abort();
            }
        }
    }
}

我可以把它用作:

string data = Service<ServiceClient>.Use(x => x.GetData(7));

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();
    }
}

根据Marc Gravell、MichaelGG和Matt Davis的回答,我们的开发人员得出了以下结论:

public static class UsingServiceClient
{
    public static void Do<TClient>(TClient client, Action<TClient> execute)
        where TClient : class, ICommunicationObject
    {
        try
        {
            execute(client);
        }
        finally
        {
            client.DisposeSafely();
        }
    }

    public static void DisposeSafely(this ICommunicationObject client)
    {
        if (client == null)
        {
            return;
        }

        bool success = false;

        try
        {
            if (client.State != CommunicationState.Faulted)
            {
                client.Close();
                success = true;
            }
        }
        finally
        {
            if (!success)
            {
                client.Abort();
            }
        }
    }
}

使用示例:

string result = string.Empty;

UsingServiceClient.Do(
    new MyServiceClient(),
    client =>
    result = client.GetServiceResult(parameters));

它尽可能接近于“using”语法,在调用void方法时不必返回一个虚拟值,并且可以对服务进行多次调用(并返回多个值),而不必使用元组。

此外,如果需要,您可以将此用于ClientBase<T>后裔,而不是ChannelFactory。

如果开发人员希望手动处理代理/通道,则会公开扩展方法。

我们的系统架构经常使用Unity IoC框架来创建ClientBase实例,所以没有确定的方法来强制其他开发人员使用{}块。为了使它尽可能的万无一难,我做了这个扩展ClientBase的自定义类,并处理在dispose时关闭通道,或者在finalize时关闭通道,以防有人没有显式地处置Unity创建的实例。

还有一些东西需要在构造函数中完成,为自定义凭证和其他东西设置通道,所以也在这里…

public abstract class PFServer2ServerClientBase<TChannel> : ClientBase<TChannel>, IDisposable where TChannel : class
{
    private bool disposed = false;

    public PFServer2ServerClientBase()
    {
        // Copy information from custom identity into credentials, and other channel setup...
    }

    ~PFServer2ServerClientBase()
    {
        this.Dispose(false);
    }

    void IDisposable.Dispose()
    {
        this.Dispose(true);
        GC.SuppressFinalize(this);
    }

    public void Dispose(bool disposing)
    {
        if (!this.disposed)
        {
            try
            {
                    if (this.State == CommunicationState.Opened)
                        this.Close();
            }
            finally
            {
                if (this.State == CommunicationState.Faulted)
                    this.Abort();
            }
            this.disposed = true;
        }
    }
}

然后客户可以简单地:

internal class TestClient : PFServer2ServerClientBase<ITest>, ITest
{
    public string TestMethod(int value)
    {
        return base.Channel.TestMethod(value);
    }
}

调用者可以做以下任何一件事:

public SomeClass
{
    [Dependency]
    public ITest test { get; set; }

    // Not the best, but should still work due to finalizer.
    public string Method1(int value)
    {
        return this.test.TestMethod(value);
    }

    // The good way to do it
    public string Method2(int value)
    {
        using(ITest t = unityContainer.Resolve<ITest>())
        {
            return t.TestMethod(value);
        }
    }
}
