Answer 1

Abhi0410,

I assume you're trying to create a WCF service hosted in IIS. There isn't a file template for this file in VS (at least I've never seen one). You have to create it manually.

You can find step-by-step instructions here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733766.aspx

You might also try googling "servicehost" to see some of the other things you can do with the svc file.

Hi abhi0410,

I agree with Chris, when anyone is trying to create a WCF service on IIS then '.svc' file is come to contact.

You have to manually add an '.svc' file in the application director.

After completion of code you can check the same as :  http://localhost/IISHostedCalc/Service.svc

I refer you the same link as Chris provided: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733766.aspx

Hi Chris and Gaurav,
        Thanks...I could get the .svc file once i did the Add New items in Project.

Initially i was not getting that...but once i restarted my VS 2008 then i could see that...

Thanks for the link....
