title: Consuming deprecated soap versions in Visual Studio 2015
body: <p>I need to consume a WSDL document. As of 2003, Microsoft suggested programs use SOAP 1.2.</p>
  
  <p>Unfortunately, the megacorp hosting the data I need is still using SOAP 1.1.</p>
  
  <p>This causes visual studio to crash when I try to parse the WSDL.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to consume a WSDL 1.1 document using visual studio? </p>
  
  <p>In addition to using Soap 1.1, note the following issues<br>
   * The MIME types are wrong<br>
   * The SSL cert is invalid<br>
   * Some of the metadata doesn't follow standards   </p>
  
  <p>To be clear, I have no control over this WSDL. It is controlled by a Fortune 500 company. As of 2017, the latest version still does not use SOAP 1.2.</p>
