Introduction

TextWrapping is required when your text to display has to align itself inside a control. TextWrapping should work seamlessly when your control is of fixed height and width. But this won’t be the scenario in all cases. When we have a dynamic parent control whose width and height cannot be predicted, we would like the TextBlock which is placed inside it to adjust itself to fit into the container. In this case we would prefer to have TextBlock decide on the height and width based on the parent control. So we won’t set any width or height.

Here, the TextWrapping algorithm will consider TextBlock to have infinite width and height. Also wrapping text is a very expensive operation. The algorithm must measure the size of every single line to figure out how to draw. When we don’t specify any width or height or say if we don’t specify a MaxWidth and MaxHeight, then we are adding load to the algorithm. So the algorithm will take time to calculate.

Introduction

Service has zero application (non-infrastructure) endpoints. This might be because no configuration file was found for your application, or because no service element matching the service name could be found in the configuration file, or because no endpoints were defined in the service element. This can happen if there is no proper endpoint configured for the service.

Here we will see how to fix the exception, the .Net Framing mode being used is not supported by ‘net.tcp://….’ See the server logs for more details.

If you are using netNamedPipeBinding for your communication then you may get an exception like “There was an error reading from the pipe: Unrecognized error 109 (0x6d).”

In this article we will see how to transfer a huge file to and from WCF services efficiently. WCF supports streaming of data. We will use streaming to transfer huge file efficiently to and from a WCF service. This article is all about transferring file using streaming transfer mode in WCF and it does not enforce you to use streaming always, because of its limitations.
