[Pygoogle-discuss] Accessing raw response string from API?

[Sam P. <spe...@we...>]

Am I missing something, or does PyGoogle not expose the <SOAP-ENV> XML
string it gets back from the server? AFAICT the string is retrieved in
SOAPProxy.__call 

    r = self.transport.call(self.proxy, m, sa, encoding = self.encoding,
                                http_proxy = self.http_proxy,
                                config = self.config)

and consumed in SOAPpy/Parser._parseSOAP, never to be seen again.

I could expose it by creating a module-level global variable (yuk!) but
it sure would be nice to just get the XML string without having to
maintain my own version of SOAPProxy and possibly other modules. So--am
I wrong about the string not being exposed? If not, is there a better
way to expose it than a module-level variable given the current code
base?

Thanks,
Sam
