VSDISCO

[101]

Just starting to study .NET web services. I noticed that VS 2002
automatically creates a VSDISCO file when you create a web service, VS 2003
does not, also VS 2002 showed the WSDL and DISCO files without "Show All
Files" option in the Service Explorer, VS 2003 does not.

Just learning, so I don't know what this is all about. Is there some place
to get a better idea about the changes to the IDE concerning Web Services
without reading gobs of stuff that right now are over my head? Is there a
relatively short explanation of the differences between the IDE and/or
process difference? The difference between VSDISCO and DISCO?

 

[stand__sure]

vsdisco is for dynamic discovery
disco is for static discovery

it is recommended that you not deply vsdisco in the production environment

as for the changes between versions, look at the "What's New In Visual
Studio..." topic in the integrated help. btw, if you should see what they
have done in 2005 -- almost everything on the project level is different

I had tried looking for Whats New under contents, (past versions of VS it
seems easy to find, couldn't find it), but after your suggestion I searched
the library and found it.

Thank You.
