  • Article

Since ASP.NET provides the infrastructure for the inner workings of an XML Web service, developers can focus on implementing the functionality of their specific XML Web service. Developing an XML Web service using ASP.NET starts with these three steps:

  1. Create a file with an .asmx file name extension.
  2. Within the file, declare the XML Web service using a directive.
  3. Define the XML Web service methods that compose the functionality of the XML Web service.
