WcfDumper is a command-line tool (based on "CLR MD") that dumps WCF ServiceDescription objects from live processes. The tool can be used to get a system-wide overview of the WCF endpoints exposed.

WCF objects dumped and the relationship among them

Usage

Just pass a process name (optionally containing wildcards) as an argument and you'll get a similar output:

>WcfDumper.exe wcfte*
Number of matching processes: 1

Data collection started.

Process 1 / 1
Process: WcfTest.exe (2376)
CmdLine: "D:\WcfTest.exe"

Data collection completed.

Displaying data for:
        Process: WcfTest.exe (2376)
        CmdLine: "D:\WcfTest.exe"

If you're only interested in the exposed WCF endpoint URIs then pipe the output to the find command like this:

>WcfDumper.exe wcfte.* | find "://"
5132 | WcfTest.IPingService | WcfTest.IPingServiceCallback | net.tcp://localhost:9999/PingService
5132 | WcfTest.IPingService | WcfTest.IPingServiceCallback | net.pipe://localhost/PingService

This way you can quickly identify the host process of a particular WCF service.
