want it to do! So, the first thing you should do is update your client references to your
newly deployed service tier on your server.
When you originally built the client tier, you added a web reference to the server
running on the Visual Studio development web server, Cassini. The important thing to
remember to prevent breaking your code is the name that you gave the reference. Looking
back through Chapter 5, you’ll note we named the web reference AddressData. This is
because once you remove the reference, the proxy class will be destroyed, your code will
no longer recognize it, and your code will thus not compile. When you create the new
web reference to the deployed service, should you give it the same name, then a new
proxy class with that name will be created, and your code will compile again.
To destroy the reference, right-click AddressData in the Solution Explorer and then
select Delete (see Figure 6-21).
Figure 6-21. Removing the web reference
Now you just need to find the WSDL of your deployed service, which will look something
like this:
http://server/servicetier/service.asmxWSDL
(If you created the virtual web service tier on the server when deploying the service
in the last step, you’ll have this URL. Otherwise, use the virtual web that you created.)
Remember to use AddressData as the name of the new service reference, and your client
should be ready to deploy.
Now, deployment is simply a matter of using the Copy Web Site tool as you did in the
previous section (Figure 6-18) to add your site to the server. At this point, your server
should have a ServiceClient web site that contains your client. This references a web
service on the ServiceTier web site, which wraps the database access. You can now call
