Hi Friends,
I was searching for source code of one service. I found the code base, but without any solution file attach to it.

I have
App_Code
App_Data
App_WebReferences
Bin
log
Global.asax
MyService.asmx
Web.config

But i want to run the Webservice locally, want to debug it. As there is no solution file, i cant do the same.
So-
1. Is there any option that i will create a blank solution file and add the web service file there? If so, i sont know the step, please help.
2. If there are other options as well, please let me know.
Thank you in advance for paying attention and investing your time and effort.

Are you saying that you are trying to find something in projects written by someone else? If so, please tell me: why should we even look at it. This is the forum for technical and theoretical questions on software engineering and programming. If you have such question, which may happen if you write your own projects and face some problems, we will gladly help you. Why addressing the problem of someone who just "found the code base". Start writing your own code and then come back.

This is our own project. Few of the projects were developed few years back. Like i mentioned a service. No change was required in the service in last few years. No suddenly need change in the service. So i need to debug and make change. But when i see the repository only the relevant files are there but there are no solution file. So i am not able to open the files and work. Thats why i am asking for help.

Are you saying that the team lost the file? Congratulations! In other question (re-posts are considered as abuse, by the way), you mentioned SVC. So, how anything could be lost? I guess, you need to fix not the Web service, but your practices.

Please see my comment to the question.

What I said does not mean that you cannot use someone else's project in your work. I just say that helping you to dig into such projects will hardly be a useful activity in the format of this forum.

Of course you can try to do something about it. But still, do the following: write some rudimentary Web project to see how it works and understand its structure. Then you will understand what's in source code you found goes where, so you can use it. But you need to understand that digging in the solutions without having all source files (even if the missing part is merely the solution file) is not a very productive business. Productive is learning and doing real software development.
