Use WCF in Silverlight 2
I don't know why I have to set BasicHttpBinding, and EndpointAddress parameters while calling WCF.
In silverlight tutorial always use below:
Dim client As New ServiceReference1.SimpleWCFClient ()
BUT, I have to declare like below syntax to make it work. It is not so dynamic coding, since I have to give the WCF file URL.
Dim client As New ServiceReference1.SimpleWCFClient ( _
New BasicHttpBinding, _
New EndpointAddress("http://localhost/SilverlightApp_Web/SimpleWCF.svc") _
)

I am using VB.NET at work, but currently most of the tutorials for learning Silverlight taught in C#. I am not that familiar with C#, although I understand other similar programming language such as Java. As a result, I need to write it down for looking up in the future.
