Again, gotta call BS here. My early career was 100% SOAP and related WS-* technologies. And it was all in Java, Apache Axis and friends. Wildly popular at the time. Give it your WSDL, out pops a nice Java client. People didn’t like it not because it was difficult to use outside of the Microsoft ecosystem, they didn’t like it because it was the concepts were difficult to understand and there were many complicated technologies piggybacking off of it. It was hard to debug issues, Visual Studio or not. If you had to do something that a generated client could do, it was difficult, Visual Studio or not.
