Why do you want to do that?!
 
Webmethod indicates that it is a callable method of a web service. Public
means that is available to other classes in the assembly. 2 different
things.

It could be public to the assembly but not callable via a web service.
 
Hi,

i have a class with few functions which some of them are public.

why not to put the <WebMethod()> in front of each public function as a
concept ?
 
bcz in that way there is no need to change the code when i will be ask to
make the function available for the web.

the question is why not ?
is it a performance issue ?

ok but as far as i know it can't be private in the assembly and callable via
a web service.

IMO it simply doesn't make sense. I would mark methods as webmethod "by
need" so the code is easier to understand. When marking every method as
webmethod, this would semantically make no sense for most methods.
 
ok,
i got your point.
