Remarks

When this provider is registered you do not need to provide either a physical .svc file or an entry for the svc in the serviceActivations section of the web.config. Only the EntityService and EntityServer services are supported. If either the requested file is present, or the entry is included in the serviceActivations, the provider will not supply the file contents.

To register the provider add the following to the Application_Start logic within your global.asax: System.Web.Hosting.HostingEnvironment.RegisterVirtualPathProvider(new IdeaBlade.EntityModel.Web.ServiceVirtualPathProvider()); You also need to ensure that the IdeaBlade.EntityModel.Web assemby is in bin or the GAC.
