Hi guys,

I’m trying to upgrade my soap4r ruby standard library. I’ve installed  
the soap4r gem, but it seems it’s still the old lib that’s being used.  
So can someone tell me what is the right way to upgrade std library? And  
also how can I check which version of library is currenctly present?

Thanks everybody,  
Uros

Fix the gem in your require path:

require ‘rubygems’  
gem ‘soap4r’ # requires RubyGems 0.9 or later  
require ‘soap/soap’
