public interface IService : IService, IControllable

Properties

Info

Gets the IServiceInfo object for this IService.

Declaration

IServiceInfo Info { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IServiceInfo	The IServiceInfo object.

Serializer

The ISerializer used to serialize and deserialize objects by this IService.

Declaration

ISerializer Serializer { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
ISerializer	The ISerializer for this IService.

UserContext

Gets or sets the user context object associated with this IService.

Declaration

object UserContext { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
object	User context object associated with this IService.

Events

MemberJoined

Invoked when an IMember has joined the service.

Declaration

event MemberEventHandler MemberJoined

Event Type

Type	Description
MemberEventHandler

Remarks

Note: this event could be called during the service restart on in which case the event handler should not attempt to use any cache or service functionality.

The most critical situation arises when a number of threads are waiting for a local service restart, being blocked by a IService object synchronization monitor. Since the Joined event should be fired only once, it is called on a client thread while holding a synchronization monitor. An attempt to use other service functionality during this local event notification may result in a deadlock.

MemberLeaving

Invoked when an IMember is leaving the service.

Declaration

event MemberEventHandler MemberLeaving

Event Type

Type	Description
MemberEventHandler

MemberLeft

Invoked when an IMember has left the service.

Declaration

event MemberEventHandler MemberLeft

Event Type

Type	Description
MemberEventHandler

Remarks

Note: this event could be called during the service restart in which case the event handler should not attempt to use any cache or service functionality.
