Specifies that the server type must be generated in the proxy object. This class cannot be inherited.

In AJAX-enabled ASP.NET Web sites, ASP.NET can automatically generate proxy objects for methods of a Web service class. It does this for most top-level types for the input parameters and return values of any Web methods that are marked with ScriptServiceAttribute.
In other cases, if you proxy objects generated for server types, you must apply GenerateScriptTypeAttribute manually. You can apply GenerateScriptTypeAttribute to the Web service itself or to any Web service method or static page method marked with WebMethodAttribute.
In some cases, even if the type corresponds to an input parameter or return value of a Web service method, the proxy will not be generated automatically. In that case, you must use the GenerateScriptTypeAttribute attribute to generate the proxy object for the type. This occurs for generic types and arrays that have more than one argument, such as Dictionary<string,<T>>.
One or more instances of GenerateScriptTypeAttribute can be applied to a Web service class or method. ASP.NET will then generate an ECMAScript (JavaScript) proxy class for each top-level type that is referenced by each declaration of GenerateScriptTypeAttribute.

If you want to generate proxy objects for nested types, you must manually apply GenerateScriptTypeAttribute to each nested type. ASP.NET generates proxies only for top-level types and does not automatically recursively apply the attribute to nested types. |
