Building client applications for WCF

Overview of generating and building Microsoft Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) client applications.

A client application can be created for a WCF service; client applications are typically generated by using the Microsoft ServiceModel Metadata Utility Tool (Svcutil.exe) to create the required configuration and proxy files which can be used directly by the application.
