Hi

I hope this is the right group to ask this question (please advice
otherwise)

I have ASMX Web service and client which are already deployed to
production.
I want to switch my WS to WCF.


It looks like the basic http binding generates a different structure
of WSDL.
Is there a way to switch to WCF without breaking the exiting clients?
I don't have an option to redeploy the clients.
I guess that the WCF's WSDL output has to be the same in order to
support it.


Thanks
Saar
