Invoking WCF service methods without having a proxy

Question

Is there anyway I can invoke a WCF service without adding service reference or even having a proxy at all.

Answer 1

Brief answer: No

WCF is based on the very fundamental principle of having a proxy between the client and the service being called. You cannot "get around" this.

You have your choice of creating a proxy using Add Service Reference, or creating it in code - but you need a proxy - no way around that.
