'Declaration Public MustInherit Class WcfListConnectorService Implements IWcfListConnectorService
public abstract class WcfListConnectorService : IWcfListConnectorService
There are two classes derived from this base class which cover most scenarios. WcfListConnectorServiceSingle is a single instance, single threaded WCF service. This service is ideal when a relatively small number of clients will be connecting to the service. The data sources can be initialized once when the service is first used, which gives a performance boost on subsequent remote calls. However, because all calls are processed on the same thread, having too many clients could cause a bottleneck, especially if one of the clients requires a large amount of data from the service. When many clients will be connecting to the service, the WcfListConnectorServiceMulti is a better choice. Each remote call is processed on a different thread and with a different service instance. Because of this, the data sources must be thread safe, such as a SQL database. Also, because a new service instance is needed for each call, some work must be done internally to hook up to the data sources for each remote call. This will cause a slight performance hit for each call over the WcfListConnectorServiceSingle.
