Web Services

Create A Simple Web Service In ASP.NET Using C#

We will make a simple mathematical operation for Addition, Multiplication and Division. A web service will be created.

Initial chamber

Step 1: Open Visual Studio 2010 and create an empty website. Give a suitable name webservice_demo.

Step 2: In Solution Explorer you get your empty website, add a web form, Web Service. Here are the steps:

For Web Form

webservice_demo (Your Empty Website) - Right Click, Add New Item, then Web Form. Name it webservice_demo.aspx.

For WebService 

webservice_demo (Your Empty Website) - Right Click, Add New Item, then Web Service.

Web Service

  1. using System;  
  2. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  3. using System.Linq;  
  4. using System.Web;  
  5. using System.Web.Services;  
  6.   
  7. /// <summary>  
  8. /// Summary description for WebService  
  9. /// </summary>  
  10. [WebService(Namespace = "http://tempuri.org/")]  
  11. [WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)]  
  12. // To allow this Web Service to be called from script, using ASP.NET AJAX, uncomment the following line.   
  13. // [System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService]  
  14. public class WebService : System.Web.Services.WebService {  
  15.   
  16.     public WebService () {  
  17.   
  18.         //Uncomment the following line if using designed components   
  19.         //InitializeComponent();   
  20.     }  
  21.   
  22.     [WebMethod]  
  23.     public string HelloWorld() {  
  24.         return "Hello World";  
  25.     }  
  26.   
  27.   
  28.     [WebMethod]  
  29.     public int mul(int a, int b)  
  30.     {  
  31.   
  32.         return a * b;  
  33.       
  34.     }  
  35.   
  36.     [WebMethod]  
  37.     public int add(int a, int b)  
  38.     {  
  39.   
  40.         return a + b;  
  41.   
  42.     }  
  43.   
  44.     [WebMethod]  
  45.     public int div(int a, int b)  
  46.     {  
  47.         return a / b;  
  48.       
  49.     }  
  50.   
  51. }  
Design chamber

Step 3: Now open your webservice _demo.aspx file, where we create our simple design with the Textbox and a button.

Step 4: Open your webservice_demo.aspx.cs and write some code so that our application starts working.

  1. using System;  
  2. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  3. using System.Linq;  
  4. using System.Web;  
  5. using System.Web.UI;  
  6. using System.Web.UI.WebControls;  
  7.   
  8. public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page  
  9. {  
  10.     WebService webserv = new WebService();  
  11.     protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)  
  12.     {  
  13.   
  14.     }  
  15.     protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)  
  16.     {  
  17.        
  18.         int add;  
  19.         
  20.   
  21.         add = webserv.add(int.Parse(TextBox1.Text), int.Parse(TextBox2.Text));  
  22.         TextBox3.Text = add.ToString();  
  23.   
  24.   
  25.     }  
  26.     protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)  
  27.     {  
  28.         int mul;  
  29.   
  30.       mul= webserv.mul(int.Parse(TextBox1.Text), int.Parse(TextBox2.Text));  
  31.         TextBox3.Text = mul.ToString();  
  32.   
  33.

  37.         int div;  
  38.   
  39.         div = webserv.div(int.Parse(TextBox1.Text), int.Parse(TextBox2.Text));

  41.   
  42.     }
