Object.id problem

Ruby

Hi yet another Soap problem

I have a web service with a method called {}id however when i call this
method project.id it returns the Object id instead of calling the method
id.

Any ideas on how to call the method id

Hi Alex,

Can you tell us please, how do you make the call ? (maybe an example
will be helpful).

Thanks.

Alin.

I’ve run into the same problem. My conclusion is that ‘id’ is
effectively a reserved method name in Ruby, and you simply need to
avoid creating your own ‘id’ method. I just don’t see how a custom
‘id’ method could possibly avoid interfering with Object#id.

I’ve tried in 2 ways and it’s working:

1:

#!/usr/bin/ruby
require ‘soap/rpc/driver’
drv=SOAP::RPC::Driver.new(‘http://localhost:8080/axis/Ids.jws’)
drv.add_method(“id”)
puts drv.id

2:

#!/usr/bin/ruby
require ‘soap/wsdlDriver’
wsdl = “http://localhost:8080/axis/Ids.jws?wsdl”
driver = SOAP::WSDLDriverFactory.new(wsdl).create_rpc_driver
puts driver.id

Hi guys sorry for taking so long to answer I been away form the computer
for a bit.

The following is the code that i use to call the method id:

soap_client = SOAP::WSDLDriverFactory.new(wsdl).create_rpc_driver
soap_client.options[“protocol.http.basic_auth”] << ['wsdl, user,
password]

@projects = soap_client.getProjects()
for project in @projects
puts project.id
end

and that gives me the Object#id not the ‘project id’ which is what I
need, if I could i would rewrite the method and call it getId but I did
not write it and I don’t have access to it anyway.

Thanks for all your help

Use id instead of just id.

My concern was that other parts of the Ruby infrastructure would
depend on the ‘id’ method to be Object#id. Is Object#id really just
an alias for Object#id , and so it’s safe to redefine it?

Thanks,
