I have to export data from a database in the form of flat files. I already have an asp.net website which saves data into the db. I am thinking of creating a WCF webservice project as part of the website solution. This WCF webservice will have methods to export flatfiles. I am also planning to create a console app to call this webservice at scheduled times.
I have the following questions:
- Once the website is hosted on IIS along with WCF, can the console app call the WCF or WCF has to be hosted separately?
- How to debug the process?
- is there any better way of doing it?
