In this post I am going to discuss about the development of a WCF callback service which replies back to its consumer i.e service client, as well as about ICallBack Interface implementation which provides response to the user on screen.
Here I designed WCF service which is place order for client and reply back to client that order placed successfully or not. ICallBack interface implemented on page display response to client. Before I discuss more here is the screen that shows output
Place Order
WCF service placing order
Order placed successful or not
To accomplish this whole program get divide in two part
1) Design of callback WCF service
2) Design of WEB page with ICallBack interface to provide response on screen
Design of callback WCF service
Starts with the configuration file of WCF service. To make service reliable i.e send response back to client once task done.
