hosting legacy WS in WCF with no code change

Assuming I currently have IIS hosting a .asmx file referring to a Class which inherits from WebService. It is using ASP.NET 2.0 and not WCF. Is there a way to host these web services and serve them through WCF with no code change?

Hi Gustavo, you're talking about two different technologies there. I'm afraid that you can't do it out of the box.

You could simply annotate your web services with ServiceContract and OperationContract. Check this post: http://kennyw.com/indigo/86

Thanks Latkovic. Fabio, as I wrote, I can't change the code.
