changes:
- Preliminary pyGlobus support (contributed by Ivan R. Judson)
- Fixes for many of the test scripts in tests/*.py, as well as
documentation in tests/README of what tests succeed and fail.
- New/Changed configuration settings:
- Added 'strict' option to the WSDL class constructor. If strict is
true, a RuntimeException will be raised if an unrecogned message is
recieved. If strict is false, a warning will be printed to the
console, the message type will be added to the WSDL schema, and
processing will continue. This is in response to the second half of
bug report [ 817331 ] "Some WSDL.py changes", submitted by Rudolf
Ruland.
- Config.simplify_objects=1 now converts all SOAPpy objects into basic
Python types (list, dictionary, tuple, double, float, etc.). By default,
Config.simplify_objects=0 for backward compatibility.
- Config.dict_encoding='ascii' converts the keys of dictionaries
(e.g. created when Config.simplify_objects=1) to ascii == plain python
strings instead of unicode strings. This variable can be set to any
encoding known to string.encode().
- Config.strict_range=1 forces the SOAP parsing routines to perform
range checks on recieved SOAP float and double objects. When
The following bugs have been fixed:
[ 752882 ] "SSL SOAP Server no longer working."
[ 792258 ] "SOAPBuilder.SOAPBuilder.dump can catch wrong exceptions"
[ 792600 ] "SOAPBuilder.SOAPBuilder.dump possibly should not call gentag"
[ 817331 ] "Some WSDL.py changes"
[ 858168 ] 'xsi:nil="true" causes exception'
In addtion, all of the outstanding bugs in the WSDL implementation
have been fixed, so WSDLProxy should now function properly.
changes:
- Modifed WSDL.Proxy to pass along all arguments to SOAPProxy. This
should ensure that all features of SOAPProxy are accessible to users
of WSDL.Proxy
- Created URLopener.py, which contains a class extending
urllib.FancyURLopener. This class allows reading from URLs that
are protected by basic authenticatoin, have been relocated, etc.
- Modified WSDL.Proxy to use URLopener. It should now permit access
to WSDL files protected by basic authentication.
- Modified XMLSchema to extend UserTuple instead of tuple for python < 2.2.
- Added UserTuple class, taken from from Stefan Schwarzer's ftputil
library.
This version contains many changes/fixes.
among them:
- Major Change: The huge file SOAPpy/SOAP.py (4,122 lines, 131K) has
been split into 10 separate files:
Client.py NS.py SOAPBuilder.py Utilities.py
Config.py Parser.py Server.py
Errors.py SOAP.py Types.py
This should ease navigation and maintenance.
- Added client support for WSDL, ported from ZSI by Mark Bucciarelli

Notes:
This is SOAPpy 0.9.8. It contains substantial improvements over the last
release.
1) SOAPpy now uses the standard python
package installation tools. Executing the commands
$ python setup.py build
$ python setup.py install
(the second as root) should install SOAPpy into the appropriate Python
library directory.
2) There has been inconsistency in how SOAPpy library components have been
imported. This new release standardizes on:
from SOAPpy import SOAP
3) See the changelog for further enhancements.
to make it work with Python-2.2 (extracted from py-google).
This is the third SOAP implementation in Python I've tried, and the
first which actually works.
