c# - How to consume a ColdFusion web service with dotnet -

i'm not experienced @ in soap , web services. i'm trying call coldfusion web service c# (.net 4.0). i'm generating proxy wsdl svcutil.exe. web service works when call listcases soapui, when call proxy map single mapitem, , mapitem has null item , value. guess isn't working because wsdl doesn't include definition querybean. if problem i'll try , author of web service add definition, otherwise have options other parsing xml manually?

yes looks wsdl doesnt have ns3:querybean type defined , proxy cant de-serialize type; best option ask author of webservice provide necessary types. must have defined types @ end might easier xsd's have type definitions or wsdl contains types.

in case dynamically generating random types (eg: querybean, foo, foobar) etc might out of luck , in case there no other way manually traversing xml.
