Version Control in Web Service

[Irakli Lomidze]

Dear Sirs.

..NET have a greate feature, that is a version control on assemblyes.
So it works fine in winforms application.
Will it work on ASP.NET Web Services ?
if yes How Client Detected Needed version ?
if no Will it be in next version of web service specification ?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Will it work on ASP.NET Web Services ? Currently no.
if yes How Client Detected Needed version ? n/a
if no Will it be in next version of web service specification ?

n/a

By definition, any platform can implement webservice.
The webservice client need not to know how the webservice is implemented.
That is the main advantage the webservice brings here on compare with other
RPC methods.
So the .net webservice doesn't expose the version details of the assemblies
it uses.
May be you can write your own webservice and add methods which will fetch
the running assemblies and its versions.
But that is your specific webservice implementation.
