I currently have a web application written by ASP.NET MVC. Now I want to add a web service so that some people can easily build application upon it. Shall I just create the asmx in the MVC Web project or create another project referencing to the Model project? And what’s the pros and cons?
Thanks in advance!
Easy decision – if your MVC Web project depends on the web service at all, keep it in the MVC Web project. If not, create a separate project for the web service with reference to your model.
Keeping projects seperate allows people to read and understand your code more effectively. If your service makes use of your model, but is not part of that model, than it should definitely be a standalone project with reference to the model. This is clean design.
