What is the proper naming convention for a web service in .NET?

I'm creating a webservice, and I want to name it appropriately.

Right now my service is named Service as per the /App_Code/Service.cs

Should I rename it to something like: com.example.MyWebService.cs?

How do I get around the class file not excepting '.' in the file name?

  • the "com.example.whatever" namespace thing is java specific. Microsoft recommends that you use Company.Product.etc..

    Check out the Naming guidelines at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xzf533w0.aspx

  • com.example would be the namespace, and not part of the class/service name.

    You should do:

    namespace Com.Example
    {
        public class MyWebService
        {
         // class contents
        }
    }
