What is the difference between a WCF Service Application and a WCF Service Library?

Question

I am developing a WCF web service and I used the WCF Service Application template to do that.

Does creating a \"WCF Service Application\" fulfill this requirement? W

Answer 1

If all you have is the one project I see only added complexity if you separate for the heck of it. I used a library when I had some particular use cases where I had to host in both a windows service and in IIS.

For IIS you you can move the classes and interfaces to a library but keep your .SVC files in the web project. You must edit the .SVC files to point to the properly qualified classes.
