public interface IRemoteServiceBroker

Methods

CancelServiceRequestAsync(Guid)

Releases resources allocated as a result of a prior call to RequestServiceChannelAsync(ServiceMoniker, ServiceActivationOptions, CancellationToken) when the client cannot or will not complete the connection to the requested service.

Task CancelServiceRequestAsync(Guid serviceRequestId)

Parameters

serviceRequestId Guid

The value of RequestId from the connection instructions that will not be followed.

Returns

Task

A task representing the request to cancel.

HandshakeAsync(ServiceBrokerClientMetadata, CancellationToken)

Introduces the client to the server to detail the client's capabilities.

Task HandshakeAsync(ServiceBrokerClientMetadata clientMetadata, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)

Parameters

clientMetadata ServiceBrokerClientMetadata

The environment, capabilities and attributes of a client of the IRemoteServiceBroker.

cancellationToken CancellationToken

A cancellation token.

Returns

Task

A task representing this async call.

Exceptions

NotSupportedException

Thrown when this service broker does not support any of the supported service connection kinds that the client offered in SupportedConnections.

RequestServiceChannelAsync(ServiceMoniker, ServiceActivationOptions, CancellationToken)

Gets a pipe to a service.

Task<RemoteServiceConnectionInfo> RequestServiceChannelAsync(ServiceMoniker serviceMoniker, ServiceActivationOptions options = default, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)

Parameters

serviceMoniker ServiceMoniker

The moniker for the service.

options ServiceActivationOptions

Additional options that alter how the service may be activated or provide additional data to the service constructor.

cancellationToken CancellationToken

A cancellation token.

Returns

Task<RemoteServiceConnectionInfo>

Instructions for how the client may connect to the service.

Remarks

Upon successful completion, resources may have already been allocated for the anticipated connection. If the connection will not be made (either because the client lost interest or cannot follow the instructions), the client should call CancelServiceRequestAsync(Guid) with the value of RequestId to release the allocated resources.

Events

AvailabilityChanged

Occurs when a service previously queried for since the last AvailabilityChanged event may have changed availability.

event EventHandler<BrokeredServicesChangedEventArgs> AvailabilityChanged

Event Type

EventHandler<BrokeredServicesChangedEventArgs>

Remarks

Not all service availability changes result in raising this event. Only those changes that impact services queried for on this IServiceBroker instance will result in an event being raised. Changes already broadcast in a prior event are not included in a subsequent event. The data included in this event may be a superset of the minimum described here.
