I have installed WCF / WPF Extension with Visual studio 2005.
I developed the sample WCF services and to consume it I have developed the client project.
In client project I need to give the service reference, however I noticed here Add service reference option is missing.
Does anyone know why there would be no option to create a database project in VS 2008? In the New Project dialog, under Project Types I have no node for Database Projects. I've looked under Other Project Types as well. Every tutorial I read says this option should be in one of those two places, but not for me :-( I do have SQL 2005 installed on this machine.

View 5 RepliesI'm using Visual Studio 2010 and .NET3.5. I've created a WCF service application. I'm including two DLLs that contain the types I'm returning. The first method I wrote works both in WCF Test Client and also in a console application I created to test. When I move on to the next method that returns a generic list of a type. It works great in WCF Test Client, but when I update the service reference it acts as if the service is unavailable. All my objects say can't find reference, and I can no longer see it in the object browser. It's like it just disappears. I can still see it in the Service Reference folder. If I go back to the WCF app and comment out the contract and implementation of that one method it work again. I created a local class very similar to the class I'm using from the dll, and the it works. Is there something I'm missing here? Can someone point me in the right direction?

Using VB.NET 2008 SP1 on Windows XP Pro SP3:
I am using an existing COM dll that works fine in VB6, on the same development machine. The VB6 app compiles and uses this dll without issue.
I start from scratch to design a new Windows Form application in VB.Net. Then when I try to add a reference to this dll, the reference is added to the references list but the path shows as <The system cannot find the reference specified>. If I select this reference in the list, the properties window shows a blank for both the reference name and the path. At the same time, a reference is added for VBA, and it shows the reference name (Interop.VBA) and path correctly.
I used dependencywalker to find the dependencies for this dll. It has 3: user32.dll, kernel32.dll, and msvbvm60.dll. So presumably I have all necessary dependent files.
I have tried un-registering, re-registering the dll. I have tried the command line switches for devenv.exe to reset settings and to launch in safe mode. I created a new user account to see if it was related.
I have tried picking the dll from the Add References, COM tab and also via the Browse tab to select the file directly. Same result all cases. I also tried putting the dll and msvbvm60.dll in my bin folder.
I don't understand how the reference name and path are missing in the properties window when the reference name is right there in the list and I select the path directly when I added it. There are no other instances of this dll registered.
I tried using tlbimp from the command prompt with verbose switch, I get the error:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException - Error loading library/DLL. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80029C4A (TYPE_E_CANTLOADLIBRAY)). I wish it would tell us what is missing.
It must be registered properly and all dependencies available for it to work in my VB6 app, Re-writing the dll is not currently an option.
I must be missing something very obvious...Using Visual Studio 2005 to write a vb app for Windows CE. I'm trying to use the NetworkInformation namespace of System. I can see it in my object browser, but when I try to use it in my form, it doesn't come up in the autocomplete and the compiler complains that "NetworkInformation is not a member of Net".
View 1 RepliesI have been using the VB IDE for many months on a VB6 translation to vb.net 2010. I have had no troubles building and running in debug,until the message below just appeared. This now prevents me from running in debug. I have not used Publish in the Build menu or used ClickOnce. The Project - application page has "enable XP visual styles" checked. I do not want this unchecked, which will remove the error message below.

#1 is C# Class Library, where I have my EF model defined (3.5 sp1) and some public methods.#2 is a VB winforms app.In the winforms app, I have referenced the C# library and added the connection string for the EF model. The problem I am having is that I have a form where the user selected a .txt file to import. On the VB side, I create a byte() from the file, then pass it to a public method cleverly called Process. In Process(), everything runs smoothly until I instantiate the EF model.

Today I realized that I no longer have a "Web Content Form" option (where you select a MasterPage) when I add new items to my ASP.NET web application. I know how to manually add a MasterPage to a web form, it's just such a pain - and I really don't understand why Web Content Forms suddenly are missing.

I recently installed and uninstalled VisualSVN. My best guess is that screwed up my poor VS somehow.How do I get Web Content Forms back?
i have a WPF application that uses a service reference to a web service.Now i have a GUI component that tracks the progress of this...But i seem to have some sort of bug here, it only occurs on some machines and not often..I start a call with MethodNameAsync and display the progress bar until the matching Completed event occurs.
some times i call 3 different async methods in a row but only the two of them get their Completed event raised so the GUI will be locked and the application has to be restarted.After being totally frustrated a few weeks i found the event AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FirstChanceException, so i hooked up to it and started logging all FirstChanceExceptions..
[Code]...
Fix this temporary by not using async methods and instead using a thread that will call them one by one.. now this is not a elegant solution, i should be able to use the async methods...

I don't have the ability to choose dynamic path as in VS 2005, which is the best way to switch URL from dev, test and prod environment for this application? Should I create some factory class that read a value from the app.config and return a service reference with the correct URI?

View 2 RepliesI'm just a starter in silverlight and WCF. I came across a very good article here by Miguel A. Castro which teaches to add the WCF manually. I have the contract service setup and the only thing I left is to get the data back from the service in the silveright. I have a hard time translate the code to vb.net.

I've got a service running (well, it doesn't crash), but when I try to add a Service Reference to it, I keep getting:
Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'net.tcp://localhost:55555/mex'.
Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'net.tcp://localhost:55555/mex'.
If the service is defined in the current solution, try building the solution and adding the service reference again.The pertinent parts of my config file are:
<netTcpBinding>
<binding name="ReliableDuplexBinding" closeTimeout="00:00:10"
openTimeout="00:00:10" receiveTimeout="00:00:30" sendTimeout="00:00:15"

The service must be self hosted.
I'm integrating one of our apps with a third-party provider's web service.

I'm attempting to consume a HTTP Basic Auth Secured PHP WebService using VB.NET. I've so far managed to get 100% perfect integration by adding it as a Web Reference and doing the following:
Dim Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password")
Dim CredentialCache = New System.Net.CredentialCache()
CredentialCache.Add(New Uri(MyWebService.Url), "Basic", Credentials)
MyWebService.Credentials = CredentialCache
MyWebService.PreAuthenticate = True
I can also successfully add the webservice as a 'Service Reference' and this also works fine, as long as i turn off all HTTP authentication on the SOAP server.
My problem is that I can't find any documented means of sending basic HTTP Auth Credentials when using Service References as opposed to 'Web References'
Am I right in my understanding that 'Web References' are a legacy method of Web Service consumption?

View 6 RepliesWe have an asp.net 3.5 web application calling a WCF service. Originally the app used a "Web Reference" to register the service however after having some trouble and burning an incident with Microsoft their solution was to replace the "Web Reference" with a "Service Reference" to the WCF service.
This is great except the problem is that when we create a Service Reference, the method signatures are different than they were when a Web Reference was used.
From what I've read this may be expected, however in our case this would mean some significant changes to the application and of course it was due yesterday...so...
...I'm wondering two things:
Is it normal/expected that method signatures will change based on the reference type? Is there a way to create the Service Reference that will generate method signatures identical to the original Web Reference?
