Logically, web services are simply another form of remoting. In reality, the FCL support for web services is considered part of ASP.NET and is entirely separate from the CLR remoting infrastructure. Classes and attributes exist for describing and publishing web services, discovering what web services are exposed at a particular endpoint (URI), and invoking a web service method. For more information, see the following namespaces: System.Web.Services System.Web.Services.Configuration System.Web.Services.Description System.Web.Services.Discovery System.Web.Services.Protocols |
