Jennifer Marsman walks through duplex messaging, where two workflows communicate with each other.  This is accomplished by explicitly forwarding the callback context to the service and letting it use that to message back to the caller.

Hi Jennifer, 

 

I am confused why Duplex is described as a communication pattern for WCF, yet to implement requires the code to set up key pieces such as Context. I would have thought that the framework would encapsulate this so that newbies like me would not have to deal with it.

 

Have I missed something about binding/channels that defines/establishes a servce as duplex?

 

thx
