There is no requirement that the parameters in two methods be of the same type; a method can be overloaded based on the type, quantity, and order of its parameters. Many of us believe that WCF supports method overloading because C# does. No, in actuality. Why?  Consider the following example: [ ServiceContract ]   public interface IMyService   {   [ OperationContract ]    ExampleData[] GetExampleData( string Code);   [ OperationContract ]   ExampleData [] GetExampleData(string Code, DateTime date);  } Now that you have implemented this interface and hosted it as a WCF service, it will fail with a contract mismatch error since the WSDL forbids the creation of duplicate client methods. We can now review the definition.  There are two ways in the interface.  The method
