4. To generate a web service, choose web service from the drop-down menu under the toolbar button Class/Web Service At the first save of a navigation in the current project, a new file HFClass.asmx will be created and added to the project.
Note
When you generate a web service, you need to specify parameters for the connection for this service, which are most probably different from those used at design time.
5. Unless you choose another name for the Navigation, this creates a new file in your project named HFLIClass1.hfxml. The HFLI opens a design view on HFLIClass1.hfxml.
