the WSHTTP Binding for WCF supports Reliable Session Properties. In there I noticed a boolean property which allows you to turn off / on ordering.
The property description is as follows:
Ordered: A boolean value that specifies whether messages are guaranteed to arrive in the order they were sent.
I’m a bit baffled by this property, surely you would want ordered to always be true? Or am I missing the point, can someone give a business case example of when ordered should be set to false.
Thanks
If each message is self-contained and does not depend on the messages either before or after it; or if each message contains ordering information that can be used to ensure that it is acted upon in the proper order; and if the network is sufficiently unreliable that there may be a significant delay due to messages arriving out of order; then setting ordering to “false” may make sense.
