hello all I’m using the following to get a driver to call to some  
functions.

require ‘soap/wsdlDriver’  
wsdl = “[http://localhost:8100/user/wsdl](http://localhost:8100/user/wsdl)”  
@drv = SOAP::WSDLDriverFactory.new(wsdl).create\_rpc\_driver

works great, but now I want a simple list of methods, paramaters and  
return values

i can get the available methods with

@drv.singleton\_methods

but how do i get to see the return values and parameters per method in  
an easy way?

thanks

bd

I am having the same problems, REXML will not parse the returned XML  
from this method and I am unsure how to get the values out so I can  
display them

I’m afraid there’s no other way for now… cf.
