# Code examples

### Setup and dependencies

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="C# (.NET)" %}
Add a WSDL reference in Visual Studio:

1. Right-click the project.
2. Select **Add Connected Service** or **Add Web Reference**.
3. Enter `https://soap.ecall.ch/eCall.asmx`.
4. Set a namespace, for example `eCallService`.

You can also use `dotnet-svcutil`:

```bash
dotnet tool install --global dotnet-svcutil
dotnet-svcutil https://soap.ecall.ch/eCall.asmx?WSDL
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Python" %}

```bash
pip install zeep
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Java" %}
Generate JAX-WS client code:

```bash
wsimport -keep -p com.ecall.soap https://soap.ecall.ch/eCall.asmx?WSDL
```

Or add the runtime dependency:

```xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.xml.ws</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxws-rt</artifactId>
    <version>4.0.0</version>
</dependency>
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
