Now I use WebApi and you seem to generate service references for WebApi via the IDE not just connect to the service in code using a client such as DataServiceContext or HttpConnectionJason Carneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05061139836332073007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007651349729494127.post-73265082141188099692014-05-01T04:57:11.469-07:002014-05-01T04:57:11.469-07:00Are comparing the service references generated by ...Are comparing the service references generated by WCF Data Service and Web API?Rabi Kiranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14704377348226567479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007651349729494127.post-46123207564309142322014-05-01T04:49:27.251-07:002014-05-01T04:49:27.251-07:00Hello Ravi, Good blog thanks for this.

If so do you see any advantage to generating service references as opposed to DataServiceContext + DataServiceQuery created in code?Jason Carneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05061139836332073007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007651349729494127.post-68378554534446225232013-09-10T03:16:57.297-07:002013-09-10T03:16:57.297-07:00Hi Rigel, You are welcome :).

I had a tough time in resolving and making stuff work when I updated the package for the first time.Rabi Kiranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14704377348226567479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007651349729494127.post-31829331869915530712013-09-10T00:37:59.907-07:002013-09-10T00:37:59.907-07:00Hi Ravi!

I actually just updated the WebApi package followed by the WebApi.OData package since I&#39;m trying to recreate a service and since my project has no views, pages etc. I&#39;m guessing the rc1 release of WebApi.OData has some dependencies with WebApi package. Weird that Nuget doesn&#39;t check it during installation.<br /><br />Anyway, thanks a lot! :)Rigelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17594238319575866214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007651349729494127.post-47472463440519920532013-09-09T07:17:26.122-07:002013-09-09T07:17:26.122-07:00Hi Rigel, I too faced the same issue.

However, I&#39;m currently stuck on the same situation as this guy http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18347290/webapi-odata-5-0-beta-accessing-globalconfiguration-throws-security-error. <br /><br />Long story short, my application crashes once I update the nuget package into any of the pre-release version (I tried both beta2 and rc1, still nothing). Would you have any thoughts on this?Rigelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17594238319575866214noreply@blogger.com
