Subject: Using .NET web service with soap4r

Hello,

i try to call a ASP.NET based web service with soap4r.
The call is successful, this means no error is thrown in ruby nor in the web service. The problem is that the value returned is not as expected.

I cut i down to the following:

This is what soap4r sends:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii" ?>
   <env:Envelope xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"    xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">  
      <env:Body>    
         <SayHello xmlns="http://localhost/PingService/"        env:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">      
            <name xsi:type="xsd:string">Roland</name>    
         </SayHello>  
      </env:Body>
   </env:Envelope>

This is what the service returns:
...
<SayHelloResult>Hello, </SayHelloResult>
...

This is what i expect:
...
<SayHelloResult>Hello, Roland</SayHelloResult>

If i remove the namespace definition (ns1) by hand in the soap4r call, e.g.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii" ?>   
   <env:Envelope xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"    xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">        
      <env:Body>             
         <SayHello xmlns="http://localhost/PingService/"        env:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">                  
            <name xsi:type="xsd:string">Roland</name>             
         </SayHello>        
      </env:Body>  

i get the correct answer.

Here is my ruby code:
require "soap/rpc/driver"

include SOAP::RPC

class Test
   def initialize()
      driver = SOAP::RPC::Driver.new('http://localhost:8070/PingService/PingService.asmx','http://localhost/PingService/')
      driver.allow_unqualified_element=true
      driver.add_method_with_soapaction('SayHello','http://localhost/PingService/SayHello','name')
      puts("Ergebnis: ", driver.SayHello("Roland"))
   end   
end
Test.new

Any hints?

Regards,
Roland
