[mono-android] Consuming WCF 4.0 Service

[robroysd]

Hi Jon,

I fixed the issue of missing dll's ect.

For code sharing however.. facing issues.

To simply the scenario, here's the deal:
Project A is a normal .NET class library.
  This project contains a WCF Reference, to make common calls through file
somefile.cs which uses WCF.

Project B is an Android Class Library (mono for android profile)
  This project adds "as a link" somefile.cs from project A

There is no way no matter what  i tried, that the "as a link" file added in
project B, resolves the wcf reference. Adding as a link, just does not work
in this case when WCF reference is involved.
Project B want's its own WCF reference. Couldn't get around this.

So i've done the following:
New Project A (previously project B) now has WCF reference, uses it and
makes calls
New Project B (Android App) references Project A, and uses the calls.

With this approach, i guess if i build iOS, WP7 apps, i'd have to add WCF
references to those projects, and use it.

what im thinking is, Since all code only uses WCF, i only have to maintain a
consistent server side WCF.
Client projects (Android,iOS,WP7) can add new functionality as WCF
references, and use it.

I realize that you answered my question, and thanks for that. But in the
above case, i tried things but didnt work. 

If you have any suggestions, let me know. Thank you.
