  <p>A Typical WCF SVC file will have the following;</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;%@ ServiceHost Service="AMWCF.Service1" %&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The SVC file informs nothing on the location of the WCF Service dll file.</p>
  
  <p>So when someone opens this SVC file link in HTTP (provided the Service is hosted in IIS), how does the link know where to get the dll file?</p>
