    text
    copied!<p>I've finally got Intellisense working for JQuery by applying patch KB958502 to Visual Studio 2008 and including this line:</p> <pre><code>/// &lt;reference path="JQuery\jquery-1.3.2.js"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>at the top of my .js files. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get JavaScript intellisense for the client proxies generated by the ScriptManager's ScriptReference elements (as shown here):</p> <pre><code> &lt;asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="Server" EnablePartialRendering="false" AsyncPostBackTimeout="999999"&gt; &lt;Services&gt; &lt;asp:ServiceReference path="../Services/DocLookups.svc" /&gt; &lt;/Services&gt; &lt;/asp:ScriptManager&gt; </code></pre> <p>The client proxies are working -- i.e. I can make calls through them, but I'm getting no Intellisense.</p> <p>My service is defined with a .svc file:</p> <pre><code>&lt;%@ ServiceHost Language="C#" Debug="true" Service="Documents.Services.DocLookups" CodeBehind="~/App_Code/DocLookups.cs" %&gt; </code></pre> <p>The code behind file looks like:</p> <pre><code>[ServiceContract(Namespace = "Documents.Services", Name = "DocLookups")] [AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)] [ServiceBehavior(IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults = true)] public class DocLookups { ... </code></pre> <p>a sample method in this class is:</p> <pre><code> //Called at the begining of the page to fill in the category list [OperationContract] public SelectOption[] GetCategoriesForSelectList() { SelectOption[] Result; IDocumentRepository repository = new DocumentEntityRepository(ConnectionString); Result = (from cat in repository.GetDocCategories() select new SelectOption(cat.Category_ID.ToString(), cat.CategoryName)).ToArray(); if (Result.Length &gt; 0) Result[0].Selected = true; //Select first item return Result; } </code></pre> <p>and it uses a data contract defined like this:</p> <pre><code>namespace Documents.Services { [DataContract] public class SelectOption { //A useful DTO to use when filling a &lt;select&gt; element with options public SelectOption(string optionValue, string optionText) { OptionValue = optionValue; OptionText = optionText; Selected = false; } public SelectOption(string optionValue, string optionText, bool selected) { OptionValue = optionValue; OptionText = optionText; Selected = selected; } [DataMember] public string OptionValue { get; set; } [DataMember] public string OptionText { get; set; } [DataMember] public bool Selected { get; set; } } </code></pre> <p>}</p> <p>In my javascript files, a call to this service looks like:</p> <pre><code>Documents.Services.DocLookups.GetCategoriesForSelectList(... </code></pre> <p>but I get no Intellisense (for example, if I type Documents. nothing pops up). I don't get intellisense for either the generated methods or the [DataContract] types used by the methods. </p> <p>I believe that I am <strong>supposed</strong> to get Intellisense for these proxies and types, but can't figure out what I might be doing wrong. TIA.</p>
