Question

Hi,

I am making a WCF service/client application.

WCF Service is web based. It doesn’t seem to have any errors and compiles without trouble.

WCF client is a separate Windows Forms project. It has GUI items on it already but doesn’t have any code for any event handling yet. The client has the ServiceReference1 added to it.

Anyone has any idea why am I getting the errors mentioned in the Pastebin link above?

Answer 1

You have elements named Name and Location in your form. You should change these names, because they conflict with properties that are declared in Control and Form, which are parent classes of Form1. (there’s nothing inherently illegal about this, but the .Designer.cs-generating code doesn’t handle it quite right, hence it writing this.Name = "Form1" when base.Name = "Form1" would have worked, and giving you warnings about hiding the inherited members) Then where you have Application.Run(new StockClient()); it should be Application.Run(new Form1());. There’s no class with that name, it makes no sense to try to instantiate it. Or if there is such a class, you need to add a using directive or call it by its full name so the compiler knows what you mean.
