Add Service Reference, unable to generate code error resolution for services

My solution is SILVERLIGHT+WCF application, done Cretiria defines the need to run the pre-defined unit Test first after the service-side code is finished, ensuring that the service runs correctly before the client uses the service. Before I create the unit test, I need to add a reference to the WCF service in the test project, and then an error occurs.

Custom tool error: Failed to generate code for the service reference ××××××. Please check other error and warning messages for details.

WCF Service中包含一些比较复杂的逻辑定义，并且引用了一些自己定义的组件，项目本身是可以编译通过的，但是就是无法被添加Service Reference。重新编译了服务本身，并且检查了配置，Update Service Reference仍然无法解决问题。

通过查看发现，还是在生成服务代码的时候出现了问题，于是点击“Configure Service Reference…”按钮来配置对服务的引用：

In the popup dialog box, remove the option to "reuse types in referenced assemblies" to resolve the issue.
