Sharing data types from multiple web links

Question

Suppose the provider provides two separate web services that share the same data types and the same namespace.

eg. The following web services contain similar objects, such as the TestCredentials object:

• TestWebservice / Testwebservice1.asmx
• TestWebservice / Testwebservice2.asmx

By including them in Visual Studio using web links, I get:

• Testwebservice1.TestCredentials
• Testwebservice2.TestCredentials

When I really want:

• Testwebservice.TestCredentials

Is there any way in Visual Studio when working with web links to link the two web services together so that the proxy classes they create are the same (and within the same namespace)?

Answer 1

Another possible option (along with wsdl.exe / sharetypes) is to use Visual Studio 2008 and use the "Add service link". The Add Service Link dialog box contains options for reusing types.

Answer 2

You will have to manually generate your proxy classes using the wsdl.exe program with the / sharetypes switch .

What comes to mind is a few workarounds: 1) create a reflection-based copy method that copies values ​​based on property names or 2) if you are using .NET 3.5, write an extension method to copy between the two types.
