[Python.NET] How to reference web services?

[Larry Wang]

Well, thank you Mark anyways.

I did more googling, and it did get me what I wanted this time.

The trick is WSDL which ships with your Visual Studio.

wsdl http://yourhost/mywebservice.asmx
csc /t:library mywebservice.cs

I hope this can help people with similar needs.
