Step to call a soap webservice in xamarin forms

Question

I have been struggling to call a asmx web service using xamarin form. I added my web service in the PLC project by right click => Add => service reference. Below is the way I call it. I am using android phone for this.

var forms = new ServiceReference.RSDSoapClient();
forms.SyncFormScoreCompleted += (object sender, SyncFormScoreCompletedEventArgs 
e) => {
var result= e.Result.ToString();}; //The results alwasy null.

}
test.SyncFormScoreAsync();

Error:

at EngenIBDApplication.ServiceReference.RSDSoapClient.EndSyncFormScore (IAsyncResult result) [0x00009] in c:\Projects\EngenIBDApplication\EngenIBDApplication\EngenIBDApplication\Service References\ServiceReference\Reference.cs:3387 at EngenIBDApplication.ServiceReference.RSDSoapClient.OnEndSyncFormScore (IAsyncResult result) [0x00001] in c:\Projects\EngenIBDApplication\EngenIBDApplication\EngenIBDApplication\Service References\ServiceReference\Reference.cs:3395 at System.ServiceModel.ClientBase`1+c__AnonStorey0[TChannel].<>m__0 (IAsyncResult ar) [0x00006] in /Users/builder/data/lanes/2512/d3008455/source/mono/mcs/class/System.ServiceModel/System.ServiceModel/ClientBase.cs:242

Is there anything I must do?

In an era of micro services, it is recommended to convert the SOAP services to REST and then use`HttpClient` to consume them. — Lex Li, Jan 22 '16 at 07:43
