I am new to SOAP complex type web services. I attached down here the wsdl file.
My question is
how to consume the web service? I mean how to call and how to call the callback function.
if possible, use the below wsdl and give me an example with c#
wsdl here
[wsdl here][1]

The easiest way I know to consume a SOAP API is to create a C# project and add a service reference.
Then add the address of your website and Visual Studio will generate a proxy for your WebService.
You will be able to call it in your project (Website/ConsoleApp).
You can have a sample of how to call the client when you call the svc of your WebSite if you use WCF.
ex: http://<host>[/route]/<name of svc>.svc

How can I call / use web API that supports SOAP and REST? I want to write a program in C# that will use this web API. I didn't get much information on the internet. So far, I have created C# project and added the web service reference (WSDL) to my program. Now how can I use the web API. How to send request or receive response? Can you please refer me some good tutorials ?
The HttpClient class is a good starting point. Also there is the EasyHttp library.

Adding web service reference creates client classes that can be used to communicate with web service. All created classes will be in new namespace, You have to look for client proxy class (full name depends on WebService name). Create instance of this class. Calling its methods will call WebService. Here you can read about using Web Services in C#
We've requested a company to write a webservice that we can use to get some information.They have sent us WSDL and XSD files. Could you please tell me how I can use these files to query data?
I can do it easily if I have a link to a webservice. I just provide the link and Visual Studio generates web reference for me. After that I can use that reference just like a normal class. In this case I have no link. Just above mentioned files. Thank you.
You can create a proxy (add service reference in visual studio) from a wsdl file. You can read about svcutil at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa347733.aspx, but VS2010 allow you to put a wsdl file on adress when adding service reference.
VS2010 can't create a web service reference from some WSDLs. Have
to write custom wrapper for those. OR edit your WSDL in a way so
VS can consume it. For example it may be ok for you to remove web
service method references for the methods that you are not planning to
use if those references create trouble for you.
Unless you're stuck with .NET 2.0, you should not use ASMX web service technology.
You should use "Add Service Reference" and point it to the WSDL on disk. It will create a set of "proxy" classes with methods that you can call just as though it were a "normal" class.
See "How to Consume a Web Service" for a walkthrough with example.
Use WSDL.EXE utility to generate a Web Service proxy from WSDL.
e.g.
wsdl /language:CS /n:"Microsoft.SqlServer.ReportingServices2010" http://<Server
Name>/reportserver/reportservice2010.asmx?wsdl

How to use a WSDL
converting a WSDL to a REST web service, Is there a C# version of this library?
http://wsdl2rest.sourceforge.net/
I was wondering if you really need a library for this? I mean as long as you have the WSDL you can create a service using the svcutil and decorate the methods with WebInvoke and WebGet also specifying the method (POST/GET/PUT) and the UrlTemplate. The methods would also have return types and input params based on your current wsdl.
I haven't tried it but I've been reading on the issue as my current project requires me to do so when I get that stage of our development effort...
Here are some sources:
How to use a WSDL file to create a WCF service (not make a call)
"Reverse" WCF Service (Building a server from a client definition)
How to use a WSDL File to create a WCF Proxy?
and so forth...
I have a sharepoint web service running at specified host + "/_vti_bin/UserProfileWebService.asmx". I would like to instantiate a web service client, so that i could interact with this service. This is basically what I am trying to do: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms550407.aspx.
How is this done in .NET? And do I have to use the MOSS API to know what functions it supports?
EDIT:
I guess I should add that I want to connect programmatically, not through a web reference, because that seems to be static.
In VS (2008/2010) you can add a web service reference to your console project for example. It will auto-generate the proxy classes for you to use in your code.
I have used the AJAX Enabled WCF Service template from within a web application. By adding a Service reference to the scriptmanager, some client objects are generated allowing me to easily consume the service. My question is can I do anything like that when I use a WCF Service Library? I added the project to my solution and in my web app I added a service reference to the service. This is where I get a bit stuck. What do I do now to allow consuming the service from the client.
So, just to consume wcf service, you have to use "svcutil" app from VS pack to generate o proxy class, which is very simple in usage.
