I have consumed a WCF service in a biztalk solution by "Add generated items". Then I build up a quiet lenghty orchestration. Now I have to update the service (Add another method). How can I update the reference of that service in the project. Is there any direct way or I have to delete all files and do all things from point zero? (I am using biztalk server 2010.)

    No, AFAIK the easiest is still to delete all the generated items and regenerate them again. Main issue is to remember to keep the same NameSpace name and to re-promote / distinguish any fields in the generated schemas. See also [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13734813/biztalk-and-the-best-way-to-call-web-service/13743458#13743458) and [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2781790/update-wcf-service-reference) – StuartLC Jan 18 '13 at 09:23
  • Are you using [multi-part message types](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163423.aspx#S1) in your orchestration? That'll help ease the pain. – The Davester Jan 22 '13 at 15:39
  • yes I am using multi-part message types which service has offered by default(Request and Response). – Shabbir Hussain Jan 23 '13 at 04:55

There is no such method to update service reference which is consumed through "Add generated Items" wizard. One possibility is to Make a separate folder in project and add reference again in that folder.
