Hi all,
as an absolute beginner with all web matters I'm sure there are still
many things that I do net understand yet - so please point me to the
right direction whereever you feel that I'm wrong.
I developped a web service (VS 2003, ASP.NET1.1, IIS 5.0 on Windows
2000) that does some database sync actions and which is called trough a
WLAN connection from a pocket pc (VS 2003, C#). On my development pc
everything is ok so far, I can connect and address the service which
returns what it is expected to.
My problem starts when I leave my development pc and install the web
service on the target server (a machine with a different IP address,
which should be standard for a web service): the proxy class of the
consuming application (and I think this is nothing special for a pocket
pc), which is created by adding the web reference to the targeted
service was compiled with the IP of my development computer where the
service was hosted during development - so it does not find the service
on the target server. So I have to recompile the proxy class (say: the
whole consuming app with the new IP) in order to be able to address the
server. But can it be possible that I have to know the target IP address
at compile time of my app? And furthermore that would mean that I would
have to compile one particular application for each customer, as each of
them runs the web service to be consumed on its own server with its own IP!?
Where is the point where I am going wrong or don't know how do do things
the way they are expected? Any help is appreciated!
Oh, by the way: what files (and settings?) do I have to add to my web
service setup project for that the service will run on the target
machine? I'm still a little lost with all that.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Roland

Your web service proxy needs some dynamic settings, which can be read from
web.config at runtime to tell it the URL of the webservice, so you dont have
to recreate the app at deplyment time.
Take a read of this http://pluralsight.com/blogs/drjoe/a.../08/18684.aspx
Dont forget to install; the .net runtime on the server you are deploying the
webservice onto.

Hi John,
Sometimes I wonder why I do not find such articles, or at least hints
thereto, when searching the newsgroup archives before posting my
question. But it is not always easy to find the proper key words to find
or filter out the helping ones - like in this case.
Anyway, you really helped me a lot, this is exactly what I needed to
know, thank you!

Roland,
Your not alone. Unless you know what your looking for its often hard to
determine the correct search terms. The guys who spend a lot of time in
these groups are familiar with many of the questions new people come up
with, so its a bit easier for us to point you in the right direction.
Glad to have helped out.

Hi all,
I'm quite lost with how adding web references to a project creates proxy
classes.
I've developed a web service with two classes inside and that contains three
references to three DLLs. After building it up, I've deployed it on the web
server.
From my Windows application, I then add a web reference to that web service.

Hello
apologies if this is the wrong newsgroup to be sending this to.
Basically, I have an ASP.NET application that I am trying to force to use a
proxy server settings. This can be done by accessing machine.config, but I
do not have access to the client machine.config machine.
Therefore every request made from this application must have these proxy
server settings. But I am having problems writing the code for this.

I would like some advice on how best to use web service proxy classes. Lets

UpdateCustomer. In my client code I might have a class that will call
GetCustomer and then depending on user input, I might want to DeleteCustomer
or UpdateCustomer. In my client code I will need an instance of a proxy
class for the web service I want to use and as I see it, there are 3...

Web Services make use of proxy classes whose methods & properties are
accessed in exactly the same way as how a normal class' methods &
properties are accessed. So what for does ASP.NET generate proxy
classes (using WSDL) which consume more hard disk space & resources?
For e.g. consider the following code which exists in a user-defined
class file:

Imports System.Data
