SvcUtil and namespaces

I'm using svcutil to generate client proxy code from my service. This
is working fine, but I have a question:

The server interface attributed with [ServiceContract] is contained
within a .NET namespace, but the client file generated by svcutil
doesn't surround the code with a namespace declaration. Is this
expected? I know I can just go an edit the generated file, but I want
to understand why this is happening.

Thank you,
Ian

Yes, that how svcutil work at least up to now

Does anyone know if that behavior is going to change by the final
release? I'm using RC1 and it's still that way. It's really
annoying, because I have to manually edit the code that is generated
by svcutil, and I thought the whole point of that automatic generation
is to avoid hand-editing.

Just a simple command-line parameter that basically wraps all the
generated code inside a given namespace?

There's a namespace switch on the svcutil.exe utility.

/namespace:<string,string>

so, add the option below to map to your own namespace.
..... /namespace:*,MyNamespace
