It depends on what version of WCF you are using. I had a customer
with the latest version and we learned quickly that Microsoft was
making up their own rules and waiting for everybody else to catch up.
It is probably rectified by now, but the web service stack that
Microsoft and IBM are purporting is horribly complex. Just take a
look at the generated WSDL and XML.

JAX-WS on the Java side and WCF on the .Net side work very, very well together.  The introduction of those APIs on each side makes interoperability nearly trivial.

It's actually pretty easy to expose RPG code as a web service with the new IWS Server on the iSeries.

I've done some IWS samples where I sent back parms and datasets as well.

Web services in general can be finicky if you don't know how to tickle them correctly.  We've had lots of fun writing Java web services and calling from .Net.

Writing a web service in RPG?  I'm sure it can be done.  Good luck with that...
Generating a web service client in VStudio is easy if there are no wrinkles at all.  If there is anything outside the box of generated code then we see finger pointing back to our web service that it does not work.  Well, it does work.

Thanks,
