Hello,
We would like migate own application xamarin IOS to .NET 6. But we are some issues for that. We need to call some old web services (ASMX). With Xamarin, it works fine.
But when we would upgrade that to .NET 6, we can't create a web reference. (This option is no longer available in Visual Studio for this project)
We have to use a "Service Connected". However, we have a platform not supported exception.
How can I use these web services with .NET 6? Or another solution for use that with "Connected Services"?
We can't use that manually (with HttpClient, ...), we have a lot of web service functions..

Referencefloder under iOS Preject and click Add Web Reference)? -

2022-01-11T10:38:09.53+00:00 I used this repo as model for migrate to .NET 6: https://github.com/dotnet/maui-samples/tree/main/archive (I used HelloIOS project), I don't use MAUI.
I use the last version of Visual Studio 2022 preview MAC (Visual studio stable is not compatible to .NET 6).
Yes, mainly, I use "Add Web Reference" and it's work. Now, I can just use "Connected Service". I don't have Web Reference with .NET 6 project. -

2022-01-12T09:58:37.857+00:00 I got it, you are using Visual Studio 2022 for MAC preview version but you couldn't add the old ASMX Web service which you need to call.
I'm not sure if this function has been disabled in the preview version or not, you could report it to developer community: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/report?space=8&entry=problem, and the product team will evaluate them seriously.
Since you are using the iOS demo in donet/maui repo, it is currently in Preview and not yet supported on Microsoft Q&A. It's also recommend to post any questions at https://github.com/dotnet/maui
