I am trying to use Svcutil to export metadata for proxy generation off a locally hosted service. I dont want to go into visual studio and click 'Add service reference' as this is a learning exercise on my part(!)
I am using svcutil as follows:
Svcutil /d:c:\temp /t:metadata http://localhost/IISCalculatorService/service.svc
This then generates two WSDL files, calculatorservice.wsdl and tempuri.org.wsdl. However I was expecting it to generate two .XSD files as well. Without these .XSD files I cant use svcutil to then generate the client code.
Am I missing something in my use of svcutil or is my understading fauly? Any help appreciated.
Here's the service's web.config
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0"/>
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
<behaviors>

<service name="CalculatorService.Calculator">
<endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="CalculatorService.Contracts.ICalculator" />

Use disco.exe to generate XSD files. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cy2a3ybs%28v=vs.80%29.aspx
Open Visual Studio Command Prompt and write disco http://localhost/IISCalculatorService/service.svc
