From: Andrew Knott Date: 2006-07-29T01:09:17+09:00 Subject: Re: Using a '-' in a Key name in a Hash Ok, that's worked perfectly for the call... Unfortunately on the server side I have a member of the same name in an Action Webservice Struct and it's not liking the member :"remote-ip", :string at all... SyntaxError ((eval):1:in `member': compile error (eval):1: parse error, unexpected '-', expecting '\n' or ';' def remote-ip; @remote-ip; end I guess this might be bug in rails... thanks for all the help...
