I want to pass the object as a parameter in Savon call. I am passing hash with type as follows
require 'savon'
class Test
def operation
client = Savon.client(wsdl:'Web service wsdl link for eg http://google.com?wsdl')
//in this case p_request is the name of TestMessage type which i got while reading from wsdl
data = { 'p_request' => { 'Request' => 'Test',
'Result' => 'empty'} }
response = client.call(:ping1, message: data)
but I am getting NULL response. How to pass of Complex type in Savon call?
Any help is appreciated.
Please find WSDL

The problem is that the content type "image/png" is wrong as I would have expected "image/jpeg"
As i just had a similar issue, I don't think that this snippet will generate a DataHandler:
<xs:simpleType name="JPEGPictureType"
xmime:expectedContentTypes="image/jpeg">
<xs:restriction base="xs:base64Binary" />
</xs:simpleType>
I'am still trying to find out why, but meanwhile you can do the same as me and I think that will help you too. Just use directly the element retrievePictureResponse instead of working with xs:simpleType, so you can use this code :
<xs:element name="retrievePictureResponse" type="xs:base64Binary"
xmime:expectedContentTypes="image/jpeg" />

Everytime I run wsimport, I get this error:
[wsimport] parsing WSDL...
[wsimport] [ERROR] Invalid wsdl:operation "getValueForKey": its a rpc-literal operation, message part must refer to a schema type declaration
[wsimport] line 27 of file:/path/MyFile.wsdl
I have exported the getValueForKey type to the xsd-schemafile, so I don't understand this error... I'm trying this sh*** the whole day grml
Shortly after posting the question I found the answer :-)
Instead of
<wsdl:message name="getValueForKey">
<wsdl:part name="parameters" element="rq:getValueForKey" />
</wsdl:message>
use this
<wsdl:message name="getValueForKey">
<wsdl:part name="parameters" type="rq:getValueForKey" />
</wsdl:message>
the attribute "type" must be used instead of "element".
Additionally the soap:body element has to have a namespace
<wsdl:input>
<soap:body use="literal" namespace="YourNormalNamespace" />
</wsdl:input>
In short, wsdl part has to have type in case of RPC style of webservices else it has to be document style.
We have been given a .wsdl file (listing below) which we will be using to generate c# code for use in our app. When I load the file into xmlspy I get the following error
attribute 'type' in message part 'organisation' (message 'getOrganisationResponse') refers to type 'organisation' which is not defined within the WSDL file!
It says it can't find the type but this is defined in the section at the top of the file, so I'm not sure why it does not find it.
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers
Richard

Your type declarations underneath <types> need to be given their own namespace. I'm guessing that the supplier of your wsdl either used an extremely lax parser when testing the WSDL they wrote or relied on some code first WSDL generation tool to create this WSDL. In either case, the onus is on them to get you a properly conforming WSDL and xsd.
Here is an example of what the relevant parts of that WSDL should look like - change the namespaces here as you wish:

Can I use .resx files in F# 2.0 projects?
If so, how do I go about adding, and then using these resources.
Thanks in advance.
You can Add existing item a .resx file to an F# project, it should automatically get a BuildAction of EmbeddedResource and work. The VS tooling here isn't as good as the other languages yet, but MSBuild does all the heavy lifting, so it's just a matter of getting the right snippet of XML into the .fsproj file.
I'm using a .resx in an F# 2.0 project. Feel free to take a look at it and I hope it helps you. No great shakes but here it is for what it's worth.
http://github.com/OnorioCatenacci/ExtendedSearch
EDIT: For what it's worth, here's the relevant portion of the fsproj file
<ItemGroup>
<Compile Include="assemblyinfo.ExtendedSearch.exe.fs" />
<Compile Include="ExtendedSearch.fs" />
<EmbeddedResource Include="ExtendedSearch.resx" />
</ItemGroup>
And here's ExtendedSearch.resx:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
<resheader name="resmimetype">
<value>text/microsoft-resx</value>
</resheader>
<resheader name="version">
<value>2.0</value>
</resheader>
<resheader name="reader">
<value>System.Resources.ResXResourceReader, System.Windows.Forms, ...</value>
</resheader>
<resheader name="writer">
<value>System.Resources.ResXResourceWriter, System.Windows.Forms, ...</value>
</resheader>
<!--
Microsoft ResX Schema
Version 2.0
The primary goals of this format is to allow a simple XML format
that is mostly human readable. The generation and parsing of the
various data types are done through the TypeConverter classes
associated with the data types.
Example:
... ado.net/XML headers & schema ...
<resheader name="resmimetype">text/microsoft-resx</resheader>
<resheader name="version">2.0</resheader>
<resheader name="reader">System.Resources.ResXResourceReader, System.Windows.Forms, ...</resheader>
<resheader name="writer">System.Resources.ResXResourceWriter, System.Windows.Forms, ...</resheader>
<data name="Name1"><value>this is my long string</value><comment>this is a comment</comment></data>
<data name="Color1" type="System.Drawing.Color, System.Drawing">Blue</data>
<data name="Bitmap1" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64">
<value>[base64 mime encoded serialized .NET Framework object]</value>
</data>
<data name="Icon1" type="System.Drawing.Icon, System.Drawing" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.bytearray.base64">
<value>[base64 mime encoded string representing a byte array form of the .NET Framework object]</value>
<comment>This is a comment</comment>
</data>
There are any number of "resheader" rows that contain simple
name/value pairs.
Each data row contains a name, and value. The row also contains a
type or mimetype. Type corresponds to a .NET class that support
text/value conversion through the TypeConverter architecture.
Classes that don't support this are serialized and stored with the
mimetype set.
The mimetype is used for serialized objects, and tells the
ResXResourceReader how to depersist the object. This is currently not
extensible. For a given mimetype the value must be set accordingly:
Note - application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64 is the format
that the ResXResourceWriter will generate, however the reader can
read any of the formats listed below.
mimetype: application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64
value : The object must be serialized with
: System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter
: and then encoded with base64 encoding.
mimetype: application/x-microsoft.net.object.soap.base64
value : The object must be serialized with
: System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Soap.SoapFormatter
: and then encoded with base64 encoding.
mimetype: application/x-microsoft.net.object.bytearray.base64
value : The object must be serialized into a byte array
: using a System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter
: and then encoded with base64 encoding.

I hope this removes any future issues with people not being able to find this on GitHub.
Here is another way. Though I know it's too late for the original question, I hope it helps others.
Create a clean text file with a name=value format, one key/value pair per line. In a file named "strings.txt", write
name1=hello
name2=world
Create a resource file using ResGen.exe acting on your text file from Step 1. You can learn about ResGen at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ccec7sz1%28v=vs.80%29.aspx. ResGen will create a CLR binary file named "strings.resources". Put this resource file where your compiler can find it.
Add "--resource:strings.resources" as a compiler option. I did this from the "Other flags" textbox in the Build properties. You can find more info at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd233171.aspx
Write the following in your F# project
open System.Resources
let res = ResourceManager("strings", System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly())
res.GetString("name1") + res.GetString("name2") |> printfn "%s"
To add a resource to an existing F# project, per #"Onorio Catenacci" GitHub Linke above...
Create a text file and fill it with the content below then save and close it.
Rename this text file extension to .resx (XML resource file)
Update the Build Action to EmbeddedResource
The file should now open correctly in the VS resource editor allowing you to edit it's contents.
