Custom Sharepoint WebServices And VB.NET

Question

Hi All <o:p></o:p>

My question
might sound weird or stupid but..............<o:p></o:p>

I had
developed a web service using VS 2010. I used VB.NET for coding. I wanted this web
service to be consumed by SharePoint custom web part. I couldn’t access these
web service methods. The asmx was throwing parse exceptions in spite of using
correct namespace and classes. I was irritated. <o:p></o:p>

Then I
converted code to c and hosted web service on SharePoint. And wonder, I am able
to access the web methods.<o:p></o:p>

Is it that
VB.NET web service for SharePoint doesn’t work? Is it that I have to code web
services in c#? Sounds stupid.<o:p></o:p>

Thanks<o:p></o:p>

Answer 1

It probably worked because you hosted the web service in SharePoint.

Answer 2

Thanks Steve for the reply.

But thats not the case. Both the services are identical. Both were hosted in Sharepoint. Code is also exactly same.
