Consume Java web services from .Net

Question

I would like to know if it is possible to consume a Java web service using .NET (doesn't matter which version) and any sources to documentation for this.

Google has not helped me and I have had trouble finding anything from MSDN/Technet about this.

Thanks

As long as the Java web service uses standards such as WSDL, you should be able to add a service reference to it in .NET. That's not to say that there wouldn't be quirks you might have to look out for, but you should have interoperability.

This article shows you how to add a service reference in Visual Studio 2010.
