I am able to wire the attachment, but the contents does not seem to be correct, I am wiring the binary to an axis engine in java. Basically my service call, needs a csv file with contents as below (first row being a string "NAME" and the second row being "machine1" etc)

NAME
machine1

Here is the method :

def zip_string():
#" Given a string, use gzip and StringIO to create a zip'd string "
    uncompressed_string_header ="NAME\n"
    uncompressed_string_contents ="machine1"
    zbuf = StringIO.StringIO()
    zfile = gzip.GzipFile(mode='wb', fileobj=zbuf)
    zfile.write( uncompressed_string_header )
    zfile.write( uncompressed_string_contents )
    zfile.close()
    return zbuf.getvalue()

//service call
client.service.executeCommand('some string', base64.b64encode( zip_string()))

Any ideas?

Thanks
AJ

I just used it Tuesday to send a gzip'd binary as an element in the request. 
The WSDL for that particular element was

<s:complexType name="OrderData">
<s:sequence>
<s:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" name="DataType" type="s:string"/>


<s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="DataValue" type="s:string"/>
<s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="DataBinaryValue" 


type="s:base64Binary"/>
</s:sequence>
</s:complexType>

and the Python to set the element was

def zip_string( uncompressed_string ):
    " Given a string, use gzip and StringIO to create a zip'd string "


    zbuf = StringIO.StringIO()
    zfile = gzip.GzipFile(mode='wb', fileobj=zbuf)
    zfile.write( uncompressed_string )
    zfile.close()
    return zbuf.getvalue()

...
            .OrderData.DataBinaryValue = base64.b64encode( zip_string( 


line_xml ) )
...

which seemed to work well.

Does suds, have attachment support - either MTOM or base64 encoded 
attachments ? If so, could anyone share some samples?

Thanks
