[MonoDevelop] asmx template

[James Fitzsimons]

Hi all,

I have noticed a nasty little bug/feature (whatever) that occurs with
web services created using MonoDevelop. The first couple of lines of the
asmx file will look something like this:

<%@ WebService Language="C#" Class="HelloWorld.Hello,Hello" %>
// created on 09/07/2005 at 23:39

I noticed the when I changed my web service to use code behind instead
of all in the asmx file as MD created it. If you leave the comment in
the asmx file, when you attempt to use your web service you will get an
error similar to the following:


Server error in '/services' application

________________________________________________________________________
Description: Error processing request. 

Error Message: HTTP 500. 

Stack Trace: 
System.TypeLoadException: Cannot load type
'Services.CustomerService,Services'
in <0x00000> <unknown method>


Not the most helpful of errors I think you would agree (incidentally the
MS framework reports the same exception).

I suggest either generating the web services as two seperate files to
begin with (preferred solution), or simply not putting the comment in
for asmx files.

Now you can definitely attribute the blame to me for being dense, but
I'd like to avoid others wasting as much time on this as I did.

Cheers,
James
