Describes the types of client applications you can generate for service interfaces and the methods you can use to generate them.
Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.
Restriction: For service interfaces, the Microsoft Visual Studio Shell supports the generation of console clients only. To generate any other type of client, you must install a full version of Visual Studio.

You can use a generated client to test a service, or to access a service in production.
