I know it's against "the 4 tenets" to do so, but hey! He asked how he could do it...

 In order to fix your problem, you'll have to use the command line tool, svcutil.exe to generate the proxy code.

With the /reference (or /r for short) switch, you can specify assemblies that contains shared types.

(You will probably use the /target:code (or /t) switch - to generate
 your proxy class).

 Run svcutil.exe without any arguments to view the help - or look it up in the MSDN documentation.

I actually read that article a week ago - quite interesting...

Yesterday, I started to work on a small library to parse ID3v2 tags (For those of you that don't know what it is; it's the information embedded in mp3 files, that tells you about the artist/title/recorded year/genre/bpm etc). I normally throw up some mock-up code, and refine it afterwards. Since this is a operation that I would possibly run on *a lot* of files, I want this operation to be fast. So I allready thought about rewriting it with /unsafe, and use pointer arithmetics to parse the tags).

As I started to hack on the library, and tried to comprehend the specification (found at http://www.id3.org/) - I came across "problems" - something that we programmers normally does when we do this kind of development, like "what is the best way to check a 3 byte large array if it contains "ID3" and other minor things. Should we just run throught them with nested if-statements, to check each element - and bail out, if it doesn't match. Or should we create an array containing the match criteria - and check the arrays against each other.

There really should be a wiki that could be used to discuss these small day-to-day problems - that we all run accross.

Regards,
