A listener operating in user-mode can dispatch control of a client connection to a listener without exposing system memory or other sensitive services or components. For example, a client component requests access to a network component through connection with a user-mode listener. Based on information contained in the client request, the listener passes a call to an application program interface, which returns a first set of data that includes user-mode contextual information. The listener passes this first set of data to the requested network component. Another call is made to an application program interface, which includes the first set of data, and a request for socket duplication. The application program interface returns control of the requested socket to the network component, such that the network component and the client component communicate directly through the requested socket in user-mode.

Dispatching network connections in user-mode

Preserving session state correlation in a distributed computing environment in which a service module instance receives messages from a general input buffer. The general input buffer is not accessed by a service module instance once the service module instance is determined to be recycled. After the service module instance receives a session initiation message through the general input buffer, a session-oriented input buffer is associated with the service module instance. Any subsequent session messages are then received by the service module via the session-oriented input buffer. Even if the service module instance was determined to be recycled mid-session, the service module instance would still operate to process all of the remaining session messages from the session input buffer, thereby preserving session continuity.

Mechanism for preserving session state when using an access-limited buffer

A web services namespace pertains to an infrastructure for enabling creation of a wide variety of applications. The infrastructure provides a foundation for building message-based applications of various scale and complexity. The infrastructure or framework provides APIs for basic messaging, secure messaging, reliable messaging and transacted messaging. In some embodiments, the associated APIs are factored into a hierarchy of namespaces in a manner that balances utility, usability, extensibility and versionability.
