[MonoDevelop] Add a reference to a TCP WCF service in MonoDevelop

[ankhansen]

Hi all 

Being new to the world of Mono I have a question here, which might be
obvious - if so I apologize. 

I am about to develop a WFC service hosted in a standard C# managed Windows
application. I see two options for this. It can be an http/rest/json
service, or a tcp service with no rest/json but based on mex metadata
exchange. This service is supposed to be consumed by a MonoTouch/Ipad
project. 

I like the tcp service because the http require the users on windows to have
certain special rights. And I would like to avoid that. 

I like the http/rest/json because client implementation is simple and
straightforward which is nice if no automated tools exists to assist with
code creation for the client. 

So both options of course have strengths and weaknesses. 

So my question here is, how simple is it for me to register a TCP WCF
service in a Mono Project? 

And second, could a valid workaround be to create the client classes in
Visual Studio, and then just reference that assembly in a Mono Project? 

Since I'm new to Mono/MonoTouch please feel free to comment all caveats I
might run into with the above. 

Best regards 
/Anders
