Generating a WCF client proxy and application configuration files using the svcutil tool with WSDL

Instructions for generating WCF clients from WSDL if the metadata of the service is unavailable.

  1. Add the following namespace definitions and policy information:
    <wsdl:definitions
    xmlns:wsp="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/policy"
    xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd">
    		
    		<wsp:Policy wsu:Id="CustomBinding_IWMQSampleContract_policy">
    			<wsp:ExtactlyOne>
    				<wsp:All>
    					<xms:xms xmlns:xms="http://sample.schemas.ibm.com/policy/xms" />
    				</wsp:All>
    			</wsp:ExactlyOne>
    		</wsp:Policy>
    
    ...
    
    </wsdl:definitions>
    
  2. Modify the bindings section to refer to the new policy section and remove any transport definition from the underlying binding element:
    <wsdl:definitions ...>
    
    		<wsdl:binding ...>
    				<wsp:PolicyReference URI="#CustomerBinding_IWMQSampleContract_policy" />
    				<[soap]:binding ... transport="" />
    				...
    		</wsdl:binding>
    </wsdl:definitions>
    
  3. Run svcutil from a command prompt, for example:
    svcutil /language:C# /r:  MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH\bin\IBM.XMS.WCF.dll
    /config:app.config  MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH\src\samples\WMQAxis\default\service
    \soap.server.stockQuoteAxis_Wmq.wsdl
