I’m moving a .NET WCF application to Mono for use in iOS. Because Mono in iOS does not support dynamic code generation, I need to override ClientBase.CreateChannel, as indicated in this post:

Monotouch/WCF: How to consume the wcf service without svcutil

This solution uses the generic ChannelBase<TChannel>. While this class is defined as an inner class of ClientBase<TChannel> in .Net 4.0, I couldn’t find it in the Mono source. There appears to be an unimplemented version of the non-generic ChannelBase in System.ServiceModel.Channels, but I don’t think this is used here.

If anyone has gotten this solution to work, could you please elaborate on how you accessed ClientBase<TChannel>?

Thanks.

    We eventually found ChannelBase<TChannel> as an inner class of ClientBase<TChannel>. It was marked as internal. We had to remove the internal modifier in order to use the class and recompile mono, but then the solution in the previously referenced post worked.

    I can’t explain why ChannelBase<TChannel> is marked as internal. This does not seem to match its definition in .Net.
