[Pywebsvcs-talk] ZSI and named arguments

[E L. B. <len...@me...>]

I am trying to use the Binding class to send a simple request to a SOAP
server.

What it is expecting in XML looking like :

<wideip_name xsi:type=3D"xsd:string">my_wideip</wideip_name>

For the life of me, I cannot get my request formatted correctly.

Here is an example of my sorry attempts:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------=
----

import sys
from ZSI.client import Binding
from ZSI import TC

def AddPVS():
  b =3D
Binding(tracefile=3Dsys.stdout,url=3D'https://3dns.srv.metro1.com/iControl/=
iControlPortal.cgi',port=3D443,auth=3D(1,"username","password"),host =3D "3=
dns.srv.metro1.com", ssl=3D1)
  b.SetNS("urn:iControl:ITCMGlobalLB/Wideip")
  request=3D{}
  request['wideip_name']=3D"wideipname"
  a=3Db.add_pool_virtual_server(request)
  return a

TEST=3DAddPVS()
print TEST

---------------------------------------------------------------------------=
------
That creates:

<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<add_pool_virtual_server>
<E40326a44>
<SOAP-ENC:string id=3D"402dee08">wideipname</SOAP-ENC:string>
</E40326a44>
</add_pool_virtual_server>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>


Please explain to poor brain-damaged me what I am missing.
