[Fedora-suds-list] soapenc:array is being substituted

[Jeff Ortel]

Hey Jason,

The specification: http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/NOTE-SOAP-20000508/ says: "Arrays are 
compound values (see also section 5.4.2). SOAP arrays are defined as having a type of 
SOAP-ENC:Array or a type derived there from."  This is tricky.  Having the xsi:type be 
SOAP-ENC:Array may cause problems with some servers just as setting it to the derived type 
is causing problems in yours.  Do you know what kind of server you're talking to?

That said, we need to help you with you issue.  I could add an option in 0.4 that would 
allow the user to specify how suds should set the xsi:type for soap encoded arrays.  Or, I 
can tell you how to hack your suds.  Which would you prefer?

Regards,

Jeff
