title: SPContext.Current is null in a web service under a sharepoint site
body: <p>I'm exposing a web service in a SharePoint site e.g. <a href="http://server/_vti_bin/subdir/mywebservice.asmx" rel="noreferrer">http://server/_vti_bin/subdir/mywebservice.asmx</a>.</p>
  
  <p>In the web service method, <code>SPContext.Current</code> appears to be null.</p>
  
  <p>(Interestingly, I'm looking at an example in Chapter 5 of <a href="https://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/com/0735623201" rel="noreferrer" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Inside Windows SharePoint Services 3.0</a> and they use <code>SPContext.Current</code> inside a web service!)</p>
  
  <p>Any idea what am I missing? Thanks in advance.</p>
