Hi!

I have problem with using a web reference in a Biztalk project.

I have defined an xsd that contains a choice element. It should be argument
in a webmethod. I used the "Biztalk Web Services Publishing Wizard" to
publish the schema as web services. This was no problem.

Then I wanted to call the web method from an orchestration so I added a web
reference to the Biztalk project. After that, when compiling, I get the
following errors:
> '': a part of a non-method messagetype must be of class type
> cannot find symbol 'TestWSProjectBiztalkGen.localhostTestChoiceWS.Referenc
e.Root'
> identifier 'Root' does not exist in 'TestWSProjectBiztalkGen.localhostTestChoiceWS
.Reference'; are you missing an assembly reference?

After some testing, I came to the conclusion that it is the choice group
element that causes this error. But when testing to add a similar web
reference to a "Visual C#" project, it compiles with no error.

Is this a limitation in the Biztalk web proxy? If so, what are the
limitations in the proxy (except no arrays and typed datasets)?

I attach an example xsd-document that causes this error.

Thanks,
Jonas
