How to use NetTcpBinding in code?

Question

Not a duplicate! - The suggested duplicate deals with one using netTcpBinding and one using mexTcpBinding. Read on to see that that is not the case here:

Here's my code:

ServiceHost host = new ServiceHost(class1Type, new Uri(uri));
host.AddServiceEndpoint(interface1Type, new NetTcpBinding(SecurityMode.None), uri);
host.Open();

I have made a copy of the project and am running two instances with one difference - the last character in the uri string. There is nothing in the configuration file. All is in code.

The uri is of the form: net.tcp://localhost/abc/def

I'm getting an error:

There is already a listener on IP endpoint 0.0.0.0:808. This could happen if there is another application already listening on this endpoint or if you have multiple service endpoints in your service host with the same IP endpoint but with incompatible binding configurations.

I don’t understand this error, both services are the same, so how can they be incompatible?

@AllanElder My question specifically says: "in code". But thanks. — ispiro, Jun 06 '14 at 14:24
nettcp can handle multiple services on one port. "port sharing". — ispiro, Jun 06 '14 at 14:27

All I was missing was:

PortSharingEnabled = true

(I don't think the error message is clear enough.)
