Remarks

If the WebReferencesFolder property is Nothing (a null reference), then a ProjectItem for the Web References folder of the project is created and the WebReferencesFolder property is set.

When a Web reference to a Web service is created, a new folder type, ProjectItem, is added to the project's ProjectItems collection. This new ProjectItem contains, in its ProjectItems property, the individual items that make up a Web reference specification. The four types of items included in a Web reference specification are described in the following table.

Item	Purpose
Map file (Reference.map)	This XML file maps URLs to the local cached file location. It lists the discovery file and the service contract files for the Web service.
Service Contract files (.wsdl)	These SOAP files specify the interface of the Web service. There may be more than one contract file in the Web Reference folder.
XML Schema Definition files (.xsd)	These files contain XML schema definitions for the Web service. There may be more than one schema file in the Web Reference folder.
Discovery file (.disco or .vsdisco)	This XML file contains links to other resources that describe the Web service.
