Not Able to find the feature Add Service Reference

[leena-v]

Hi,

I created a new solution on the new Visual Studio 2015 and created a dll Library(Package).
When I try to add a reference to a webservice(wsdl), I am unable to add the service reference the right click on the references only has the following options:

1. Add Reference
2. Add Connected Service
3. ManageNuget Package
4. Restore Packages
   Has anyone faced the same issue?
   Is there anyway to configure the application to display this feature(add service reference)?

Thanks,

Hi @leena-v . A blog describing this up-coming feature is at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webdev/archive/2015/12/15/wcf-connected-service-visual-studio-extension-preview-for-asp-net-5-projects.aspx . Give it a try and let us know how it works for you.

The best place currently to file bugs or ask questions about this feature is https://github.com/dotnet/wcf. I'd like to close this particular issue in this CoreFx repo, and you should feel free to open new issues in the WCF repo.

@roncain Appreciate for your quick response. Could you please suggest which is the best way to add a third party wsdl api reference to a .net core dll? is this feature available?

Hi @leena-v -- I've moved this discussion to the new issue you opened at dotnet/wcf#728 so we can discuss it in the right repo.

Hi @leena-v, I'm assuming you mean a service reference when you refer to 'a third party wsdl api reference', if this is the case using the WCF Connected Service extension Ron pointed at previously is the way to go.
