Example

The following configuration file uses a <provider> instance element to assign to the HttpChannel the "propsetter" and a "null" channel sink provider that are declared with <provider> template elements. In addition, the "propsetter" channel sink provider is created with the custom provider properties specified as attributes on the provider instance element and as the child <endpoint> attribute name/value pairs.
