Remarks

The WSTrustServiceHostFactory class is the Windows® Identity Foundation (WIF) implementation of the Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) ServiceHostFactory class. This class can be used to deploy WIF security token services (STS) that are hosted in IIS. By default, the WSTrustServiceHostFactory class will use a WSTrustServiceHost service host with a WSTrustServiceContract service contract implementation.

The following code snippet demonstrates how to use this class in an .svc file:

  Copy Code
<% @ServiceHost Language=C# Debug="true" Factory="Microsoft.IdentityModel.Protocols.WSTrust.WSTrustServiceHostFactory" Service="MySecurityTokenServiceConfiguration" %>

In the above configuration snippet, the Service attribute is pointing to an implementation of the SecurityTokenServiceConfiguration object which will be used by the framework to determine how the WSTrustServiceHost will be constructed. Configuration settings from a web.config file will be applied towards the construction of ServiceHost instance.The WSTrustServiceHostFactory class may be overridden to customize this behavior.
