hello,
i am working w/ a partner company's webservice, which they wrote in
java.
using a provided webservice.wsdl file, i am able to compile it into a
proxy class, webservice.dll. i can add this assembly reference to my
test ASP.NET C# test project and use it no problem.
problem -- our production ASP.NET project uses strongly-named
assemblies. this .dll will not compile.
there are two solutions, i figure:
1) figure out how to strongly name my new proxy's .dll w/ the .snk
we're using.
2) reference the webservice via Visual Studio's "Add Web Reference" and
see if that works around the problem.
my lead is pushing towards #2. normally this should be easy.... but
this webservice is secure. it uses:
- https
- a certificate login
- a username & password NetworkCredential
my question: how can one make a web reference in VS.NET to something
like this? when i enter the URL to its WSDL in IE like so:
https://someurl.com/theService?wsdl
...IE prompts for the certifcate, then prompts for the login creds, then
lets me see the wsdl info. cool. however, in VS.NET, that doesnt
happen! i only have a URL bar, and it doesnt prompt for anything. doh..
do i tried entering my login creds inline ala:
https://username:pa******@someurl.com/theService?wsdl
....but it doesnt work.
any suggestions!?
thanks,
matt
