VSDISCO files

What are VSDISCO files?

[Jalib]

VSDISCO files are DISCO files that enable dynamic discovery of Web Services. ASP.NET links the VSDISCO to a HTTP handler that scans the host directory and subdirectories for ASMX and DISCO files and returns a dynamically generated DISCO document. A client who requests a VSDISCO file gets back what appears to be a static DISCO document.

vsdiscofiles are placed in the web service applications. A vsdiscofile returns markup(which also contains references to the Web service’s WSDL file and DISCO documents) when requested.
