Why are there extra arguments in my wcf web service reference?

I'm trying to convert an ASP.Net web service to WCF application.

How do I upload large (> 25MB) files to a web service?

I have a web service that takes a byte[] and saves it. This works fine for "small" files, but once I hit a certain size the web service fails and returns "The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found." From what I've seen this appears to be an IIS setting that limits the size of a file that can be posted (to prevent Denial of Ser...

And this type is then specified as being string! Example: <definitions targetNamespace="java:the.custom.namespace" xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/" xmlns:tns="...

Java client calling WSE 2.0 with DIME attachment

I need to integrate with a legacy .NET Web Service that uses WSE 2.0 for WS-Security and DIME. The catch is I need to do this from a Java application.

Coding collaboratively for the web

In the past I've done the coding-part of my web-projects mostly by myself. Now, as we are a team working on some project, be it phython or php or ..., is there some simple versioning system to use? My hoster doesn't seem to support any kind of this sort. On the other hand, I feel it is too early to start renting a whole server in this p...

I can enable the management of content types in a document library's "advanced settings". Is there any web service method for this? I need to do this in an automated way, not manually.
