I'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.
BasicHttpBinding basicHttpBinding = new BasicHttpBinding();
EndpointAddress endpointAddress = new EndpointAddress("/Person.svc");
IPersonService personService = new ChannelFactory<IPersonService>(basicHttpBinding, endpointAddress).CreateChannel();
I'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?
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 have added webservice support to an OLD PocketPc 2002 application written in VS2003. 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?
I want to make a program that will ask the user to enter the service reference URL in the text box then click a button to add the service reference. how to add and remove a service reference?
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:
I'm integrating one of our apps with a third-party provider's web service. I've added the service reference, but when I go to dimension a var as one of their types, the types aren't showing up for me in Intellisense. I'm using VB.NET/VS 2008 on Windows 7 and a 2.0 Framework web site running on local IIS. I have imported System.Web and System.Web.Service in my codebehind. I also made sure to check the "Always generate message contracts" checkbox.Types not showing up for service reference
Today I was build one Windows Service Application which has the reference to 4 Dll. After building the Release I found that there was one more DLL in addition to the reference I have. I checked using ILDASM and it only showed 4 dlls.What could be the issue ? How I can I check why it is getting unwanted DLL's in Release Folder?
I'm currently trying to call a WCF service dynamically See here, therefore, I'm trying to understand what happens behind, when I add a service reference by the GUI of Visual Studio... What's generated..? An object is created and an implicit reference is created...
Are the references contained in a specific container, a sort of pool?
When I add a service reference to my VB.Net project all of the properties of type DateTime get changed to type Date. The project is ASP.Net using framework 4.0. The web service being referenced is C# framework 4.0. How can I keep this from happening?
I am building an application and I am using web services for getting data from a server. It was working fine when I was developing on my XP machine but had to switch to Windows 7. On the new machine I grabbed the latest version of the code using sourcesafe.However, when I try to add a service reference in the solution or update an existing one I get the following error:
There was an error downloading 'http://localhost:52490/Service/CustomerService.asmx'.
The request failed with the error message:Server Error in '/' Application.Parser Error Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately.

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?
We 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?
Anyway, if I use a web service I need the web service(server) to connect to the databasen MS Visual studio when you add a web service project the data menu disappears and you can't add a data source to the project. There may be a workaround for this by hand coding this, but I am not sure how to do it. This is my first time working with a web service and ASP.NET so I am a real noob in this are
What I am trying to do it create a server application for all of the clients in my organization to connect to. I think the best way to do this is to use a web service.

I have an executable that now has a requirement to expose data in XML format via a web service which can be queried by a browser.While I've seen tons about consuming web services and creating web services in web projects, I've not found anything that adequately explains adding such a service (or an equivelant) to an existing Windows app.
I am using Vb 2008 Express Edition.I am trying to use PDfSharp to create my output file as a PDF document. I downloaded PDFSharp-MigraDocFoundation-1_31. It has many folders. I don't know what exe, dll etc. needs to be added and where?
I am very very very Curious , okay today when i opened vb.2005 i click on projectAdd ReferenceCOM(tab)
It showed me different component names, so here is my question
What can i do with those Components? I saw Yahoo Messenger Components/ Bit torrent/ Real Player/ Quick Time and different applications' component to summarize my curiosity
What can i do with them? What is the reason for those components? Are they helpful? Are they ever needed? if yeah please how?

how to go about adding a reference to an assembly at run time? I am writing a vb.net (2008) program that will send email via Outlook. But at compile time I do not know which version of Outlook the user will be using - Outlook 2003, 2007 or 2010.
How do I add a reference at runtime which will a) satisfy this condition and b) allow me to compile the program? If I do not have a reference at compile time then my Outlook code will fail

When i create a new Visual Studio 2010 web site, and i try to add a reference to that dll the following error appears:
A reference to 'dllName' could not be added. Converting the type library to a .NET assembly failed. Execution of the following process failed: C:Archivos de programaMicrosoft SDKsWindowsv7.0AinTlbImp.exe "c:mystitedllName.dll" /transform:dispret

If you delete some of these two functions the error doesn't appears. This problem is not present in Visual Studio 2008 or 2005.
I've added a COM reference to one of my projects (the DLL resides in C:Program FilesIntwerwovenWorksiteiManage.dll) but when I view the References in my project the path is something like c:usersusernamedocumentsvisual studio 2008project nameobjdebugiManage.dll..I seem unable to edit this path. I can remove the reference and re-add it using the browse button, picking up the correct dll but it keeps showing as the path of the project.The application works on my development machine but as soon as it's deployed to a client machine it complains of the missing DLL. Of course, the DLL is present but the app is looking in the debug folder.
