You say you are using web service links. Then you can update them using wsdl.exe . If you already have automatic builds configured for your environment, then you will need to add a new task that updates them every time it is created.



If you are using MSBuild have a look at this answer , it might be the solution for you. Of course, this needs to be changed in every environment that needs to be updated, but if you do, you should be safe for contract changes in the future.
