I hardly use web services, but just noticed now when I created one, the CS file was dumped in the App_Code folder. Is that a new thing?
I always thought it behaved much like an Aspx or Ascx file with the nested code behind CS file.

That’s because you are using a Web Site in contrast to Web Application. Web Sites are compiled dynamically at runtime by the ASP.NET runtime. In this model all code goes into the
App_Codespecial folder. When deploying you need to upload your source code as well.On the other hand a Web Application is compiled. You can place the code wherever you like and for things like .ASPX, .ASCX, .ASMX, .ASHX, … Visual Studio nests the code file next to the markup.
