Consuming WSDL-based web service with a Ruby client

Perl's SOAP::Lite and SOAP::WSDL have been a nightmare to get them working for WSDL-based web services, but Ruby's WSDLDriver seems to do the job fine: [coolcode language="ruby" linenum="off"] #!/usr/bin/env ruby require 'soap/wsdlDriver' wsdlfile = "http://your-server.com/service?wsdl" driver = SOAP::WSDLDriverFactory.new(wsdlfile).create_rpc_driver param = {"a_param" => "a_value"} result = driver.a_method(param) puts result.the_name_of_the_return_variable [/coolcode]
