i create a wcf service and hosted it on windows azure. The wcf service is a https one. When ever i call the service the client needs a certificate to verify its authenticity.
Got a solution:
In the ajax call i made a call to the controller
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#GetAdjustedSalary").click(function () {
var salary = parseFloat($("#salary").val());
var infalation = parseFloat($("#inflation").val());
var object = {
salary: salary,
infalation: infalation
}
var data = JSON.stringify(object);
$.ajax({
url: "Home/GetData/",
type: "POST",
data: data,
dataType: "JSON",
contentType: "application/json",
success: function (data) {
$("#answer").html(data);
}
});
});
});
Then in the controller:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult GetData(string salary, string infalation)
{
string output = "";
try
{
X509Certificate Cert = X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile("d://Cert//newton2.cer");
ServicePointManager.CertificatePolicy = new CertPolicy();
HttpWebRequest Request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://newtonsheikh.cloudapp.net/SalaryService.svc/adjustedsalary?a="+salary+" &b="+infalation+"");
Request.ClientCertificates.Add(Cert);
Request.UserAgent = "Client Cert Sample";
Request.Method = "GET";
HttpWebResponse Response = (HttpWebResponse)Request.GetResponse();
Console.WriteLine("{0}" + Response.Headers);
Console.WriteLine();
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(Response.GetResponseStream(), Encoding.Default);
int count;
char[] ReadBuf = new char[1024];
do
{
count = sr.Read(ReadBuf, 0, 1024);
if (0 != count)
{
output += new string(ReadBuf);
}
} while (count > 0);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
//Throw the exception...lol :P
}
output = output.Replace("\0", "");
string jsonString = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(output, Newtonsoft.Json.Formatting.None, new JsonSerializerSettings { NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore });
return Json(jsonString, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
The CertPolicy Class:
class CertPolicy : ICertificatePolicy
{
public bool CheckValidationResult(ServicePoint srvPoint, X509Certificate certificate, WebRequest request, int certificateProblem)
{
// You can do your own certificate checking.
// You can obtain the error values from WinError.h.
// Return true so that any certificate will work with this sample.
return true;
}
}
