Cant properly add service reference in VS 2012 RC

5.7k views Asked by At

I just add address of the service, press GO and ok. After that generated Reference.svcmap looks right, but Reference.cs is empty!

And thats all. Cant work with ServiceClient object!
PS: Adding same service reference in VS2010 works ok and reference.cs is fully generated.
The question is: is there is a problem in generating the ClientObject, why VS is not giving me any warning message. Also if someone has experiences such problem-how can i fix that?

Check if you have any warnings.
I had this problem once and found a warning regarding a locked dll.
After fixing the warning the reference.cs was created again.

Same problem in 11.0.50727.1 RTMREL

// Runtime Version:4.0.30319.17929

Unchecked the "Reuse Types in referenced assemblies" checkbox in the Configure Service reference dialog.

Worked for me: Link
