How to add WebService to C# WinForm ?

Hi

How I can add Webservice to WinForm ?

I do not have this Option, why ?

thank's in advance

From stackoverflow

• When you right click on the Project in Visual Studio, select Add Web Reference. You can then instantiate the web reference in your WinForm.

• Do you mean you want to consume a webservice? Or Host a web service?

  If you want to consume a web service, Add WebReference as billb suggested.

  If you want to host a web service, it is not possible to host an ASMX web service. However, it is possible to host a WCF web service.

  (Example Does not include any error handling or things that you would want.)

  Declare your contract

  [ServiceContract]
  public interface  IWebGui
  {
      [OperationContract]
      [WebGet(UriTemplate= "/")]
      Stream GetGrid();
  }
  

  Implement your contract

  [ServiceBehavior(InstanceContextMode=InstanceContextMode.Single)]
  public class WebGui : IWebGui
  {
  
      public Stream GetGrid()
      {
  
          string output = "test";
  
  
          MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(output));
          WebOperationContext.Current.OutgoingResponse.ContentType = "text/html";
          return ms;
      }
  
  }
  

  Then start a WebServiceHost to serve the call

          WebGui webGui = new WebGui();
  
          host = new WebServiceHost(webGui, new Uri("http://localhost:" + Port));
          var bindings = new WebHttpBinding();
  
          host.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IWebGui), bindings, "");
          host.Open();
