Serviced Components & SOAP

[Guest]

Hi,

I have an assembly with two serviced components. It has been registered
using regsvcs.exe and is SOAP enabled. I can see a WSDL link for both
components in my browser when I open it to
http://localhost/<appname>/default.aspx.

However, I want to only display the WSDL link of one of the components. I
have tried using the PrivateComponent attribute and ComVisible attribute but
this has not worked. Is this even possible?

Thanks in advance,

Pete

Hello Pete,

Possible, only by removing interface's entries from the WSDL description

Google, I replied to similiar post several monthes ago

I saw that response. The WSDL is generated on the fly. There is no file to
alter. If there is no file, how can I remove entries? Perhaps I am missing
something.

Michael,

I removed the wellknown and activated elements in the web.config file. This
worked but it led me to another problem.

Let's say I have Class A and Class B, both of which are Serviced Components.
Now I create another Serviced component called API which returns an instance
of Class A or an instance of Class B. In the WSDL, I only want API to
appear. This is no problem. But the WSDL definition of API contains a list
of all the methods in Class A and Class B. I don't want to expose that
information.

I don't want to expose every method through WSDL but I want to be able to
use them internally and expose the class through an API class. I still have
found now way to do this. Any thoughts?
