Invoking an ASP.NET web service method via an http request

问题

I want to invoke an ASP.NET web service via an http POST request using C# (i.e. I don't want to use the SoapHttpClientProtocol object generated by running wsdl.exe).

As far as I can tell, the process involves:

creating an HttpWebRequest object which points to the url/method of the web service, with the method;
Creating a SOAP xml envelope;
Serialising any parameters I want to pass to the web method using an XmlSerializer;
Making the request, and parsing the response.

I would like to do this without having to copy and use generated code.

(1) seems pretty straightforward;

(2) I don't know if the envelope here is standard, or how it should change depending on the webservice method I am calling. I guess I might need to add custom soap headers if required by the service?

(3) What is the process of doing this? I assume that I need to do something like this:

MyClass myObj;
XmlSerializer ser = new XmlSerializer(myObj.GetType());
TextWriter writer = new StringWriter();
ser.Serialize(writer, myObj);
string soapXml = writer.ToString();
writer.Close();

Also, I guess I should add the soapXml to the soap:Body element

(4) I believe I should extract and deserialize the contents of the soap:Body element as well. Is it OK to use the reverse of the process in (3)?

Thanks,

I don't know why I am doing this but here's an example of invoking a web service manually. Please promise to never use this in a production code.

Suppose you had the following SOAP service:

public class Foo
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

[WebService(Namespace = "http://tempuri.org/")]
[WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)]
public class Service1 : System.Web.Services.WebService
{
    [WebMethod]
    public string HelloWorld(Foo foo)
    {
        return "Hello World";
    }
}

You can invoke it manually like this:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
        {
            client.Headers.Add("SOAPAction", "\"http://tempuri.org/HelloWorld\"");
            client.Headers.Add("Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8");
            var payload = @"<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?><soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=""http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"" xmlns:xsi=""http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"" xmlns:xsd=""http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema""><soap:Body><HelloWorld xmlns=""http://tempuri.org/""><foo><Id>1</Id><Name>Bar</Name></foo></HelloWorld></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>";
            var data = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(payload);
            var result = client.UploadData("http://localhost:1475/Service1.asmx", data);
            Console.WriteLine(Encoding.Default.GetString(result));
        }
    }
}
