Help with web service please (VS Bug I think - no Really!)

[dgk]

I'm trying to use a Sharepoint webservice. I start a new VB Windows
project (VS2008 or 2005). I add a web reference to the Copy service
(http://192.168.1.25/_vti_bin/copy.asmx). I add no code, all I've done
is start a new project and add the reference. I build the project and
get this error:

Error 1 'Results' is already declared as 'Private results() As
Object' in this class. C:\Documents and Settings\user1\ Local
Settings\Applic ation Data\Temporary Projects\Window sApplication1\W eb
References\WebR eference\Refere nce.vb 453 34
WindowsApplicat ion1


It does not happen if I start a C# project. It does not happen if I
use another service, such as Lists.asmx.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Bugs should be reported to http://connect.microsoft.com/

For the most part, the people here are just volunteers and have no
affiliation with Microsoft. Therefore we have no control over the
internal code or bug fixes.

Thanks. I was hoping that someone might know the problem and have a
solution or maybe someone could try it and let me know if the same
thing happens. To be fair, I've tried it on a few development machines
attaching to different Sharepoint servers and got the same result each
time. What was Einstein's definition of insanity?

The only Google I was able to find on it was on a Technet forum and no
one had answered.

I did use Connect to report it as a bug. I did that once before for
another issue but forgot the site; they fixed that bug with VS2008
SP1.

If you want / need a fix now, you should be able to open up that
Reference.vb file and manually fix the issue in the generated proxy
class. Though there is a chance it will overwrite your changes if you
do an Update on the service at a later point.

Hadn't thought of that; damn good idea. I thought that file got
generated each time but no, it doesn't. Plus, it wasn't all that hard
to fix. I don't know that it will end up working but it sure looks ok
for now.

Yeah, unfortunately I've had the (dis)pleasure of manually editing the
proxy classes by hand before.

Not a lot of fun, but it gets the job done :-)

Editing the Reference.vb file directly may be the only option. The reason
this is not throwing an error in a C# project is that Results and results()
are different names due to case sensitivity. VB doesn't differentiate based
on case so they would look like the same variables.

Ha, I always hated case sensitivity, here's an argument in favor of
it.
