Getting Ready to use a REST Web Service
In this article we will see how to modify the Currency Web Service client application explained in article 2 – "Consume It Your Majesty" to use REST based approach. So as a first step, copy that project to another directory and make following changes:
- Delete the Web Reference com.ksetindia.com.ws.currency
-
Remove the statement
using CurrencyClient01.com.ksetindia.ws.currency;
from CurrencyClient.cs. - Add a reference to System.Web component
With that we have removed any references to our SOAP Currency Web Service.
