WCF in .net core (TransportWithMessageCredential)

Viewed 7512

When I try to create a connection to a WCF client in dotnet core 2.0, I receive an platform unsupported error:

System.PlatformNotSupportedException: 'The value 'TransportWithMessageCredential' is not supported in this context for the binding security property 'securityMode'.'

If I remove the BasicHttpSecurityMode, I receive an argument exception: System.ArgumentException: 'The provided URI scheme 'https' is invalid; expected 'http'.'

Code:

ChannelFactory<BlackBoxContract> factory = null;
BlackBoxContract serviceProxy = null;
Binding binding = null;

binding = new BasicHttpBinding(BasicHttpSecurityMode.TransportWithMessageCredential);

factory = new ChannelFactory<BlackBoxContract>(binding, new EndpointAddress("https:......."));;
serviceProxy = factory.CreateChannel();

Anyone that found a workaround as this might be on the long term roadmap? https://github.com/dotnet/wcf/issues/8
