Subject: Re: SOAP4R newbie question

Hi NaHi,

Thanks for responding ...

>Isn't the service a kind of "logging-in with user/passwd to get a session 
>token then passing the token with all methods", is it?

My initial understanding of this particular soap service was wrong, it does
not use cookies.  It works how you describe above except that rather than
sending the token as a parameter to each method it sends it in the SOAP
Header.

Does soap4r support adding complex types (in this case a simple object with
just a string id) to the SOAP Header?  

If not, is there an easy way to extend Driver to add a header, as I really
like the way methods are added to the driver, its so neat and so ruby ... ;)

BTW, I'm using ruby/1.8.1 + bundled soap module
