Does WCF support WS-Eventing?

I know WCF supports many WS-* protocols but WS-Eventing does seem to be listed.

I do know that WCF has a pub/sub model, but is it WS-Eventing compliant?

From stackoverflow
  • I seem to remember reading about this on CodeProject a while ago.

    Sorry I can't help more, but this is the article by Roman Kiss.

  • There is no native pub/sub model in WCF 3.0, however there are a few options.
    - The Roman Kiss article Ash found.
    - There is a lot of other patterns you could implement (covered in MSDN Mag)
    - Juval Lowy has two framework implementations you can download on his site at IDesign
    - Lastly what I am using currently to mimic this with little overhead is MSMQ.

  • I'm wondering if it is a good practise to use ws-eventing. There are not many implementation examples on the internet. And the examples i can find are already a couple of years old. So it looks like it's not a very common used standard.

    What are the advantages/disadvantages of using WS-Eventing?
