making the url configurable within a webservice proxy class

[Gambit001]

at the minute within my proxy class i have the following:-

    Public Sub New()
        MyBase.New()
        Me.Url = "http://xxx.xxx.1.19/genericinterfacews/genericinterface.asmx"
    End Sub

now i could make the me.url configurable quite easily, but the soap headers and binding attributes also have the IP address which would need configured

    <System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapDocumentMethodAttribute("http://xxx.xxx.1.19/genericinterfacews/genericinterface.asmx/HCNSubscribe", RequestNamespace:="http://xxx.xxx.1.19/genericinterfacews/genericinterface.asmx", ResponseNamespace:="http://xxx.xxx.1.19/genericinterfacews/genericinterface.asmx", Use:=System.Web.Services.Description.SoapBindingUse.Literal, ParameterStyle:=System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapParameterStyle.Wrapped)> _
    Public Function HCNSubscribe(ByVal HCN_NO As String, ByVal SystemPatientID As String, ByVal Username As String, ByVal Password As String, ByVal EndSystemUser As String, ByVal MsgID As String) As String

 <System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("wsdl", "2.0.50727.42"), _
 System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute(), _
 System.ComponentModel.DesignerCategoryAttribute("code"), _
 System.Web.Services.WebServiceBindingAttribute(Name:="Generic Interface Web ServiceSoap", [Namespace]:="http://xxx.xxx.1.19/genericinterfacews/genericinterface.asmx")> _
Partial Public Class GenericInterfaceWebService

is it somehow possible to make the url configuarble throughout? im not sure it is

reason i ask, is the proxy is used to call a 3rd party webservice but they said the IP may change in the future and we dont want to re-release, just change the IP in a config file

Cheers,

The .Url property should be all you need to change. It's common practice to keep the Url property configurable and I do it all the time too.

Your SoapDocumentMethodAttributes and Namespaces are just that - namespaces, they only serve as 'unique' strings to reference the web service and are passed back and forth in the headers to and from the web service, so you can pretty much leave them as they are and it should work.
