Question

For example

        // Create a ServiceHost for the Service type and 
        // provide the base address.
        mServiceHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(T));

        // Open the ServiceHostBase to create listeners and start 
        // listening for messages.
        mServiceHost.Open();

where in this case T is TransactionProcessingService.

So far I am getting an error with the app config and not sure how I should modify it:

Service
‘TransactionProcessingWindowsService.TransactionProcessingService`1[[Common.TransactionProcessing,
Common, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null]]’ 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.

Here’s how I tried to set up my config

      <service name="TransactionProcessingWindowsService.TransactionProcessingService&lt;TransactionProcessingWindowsService.TransactionProcessing&gt;"
           behaviorConfiguration="TransactionProcessingServiceBehavior">
    <host>
      <baseAddresses>
        <add baseAddress="http://localhost:8000/TransactionProcessingService/service"/>
      </baseAddresses>
    </host>
    <endpoint address=""
              binding="wsHttpBinding"
              contract="TransactionProcessingWindowsService.ITransactionProcessingService" />
    <endpoint address="mex"
              binding="mexHttpBinding"
              contract="IMetadataExchange" />
  </service>

Thanks

Exception details show you what service name should be used. Try this:

<service name="TransactionProcessingWindowsService.TransactionProcessingService`1[[Common.TransactionProcessing, Common, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null]]"
         behaviorConfiguration="TransactionProcessingServiceBehavior">

but that is not cool, as you need to update config file each time you changing the assembly version or sign it.
