Problems with WSDL2ruby

Matt Osentoski — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 16:04:00 -0500

The other day, I was trying to create a quick and dirty SOAP client for my Axis server, when I encounter the following error:

uninitialized constant SOAP::Mapping::EncodedRegistry (NameError)

Let me start from the beginning.. I installed soap4r using:

gem install soap4r

After soap4r was installed, I ran WSDL2ruby to create the SOAP client stubs.

wsdl2ruby.rb --wsdl http://localhost:8080/axis/services/someCoolService?wsdl --type client --force

Now that the client code had been generated, I launched the client and received the error message above. The problem was caused by Ruby grabbing the soap4r classes that are included in the distribution and not the gem. To fix this, explicitly point to the soap4r gem libary.

Solution

Open up the defaultMappingRegistry.rb file and make sure the require statements look like:

require 'default.rb'
require 'rubygems'
require_gem 'soap4r'
require 'soap/mapping'

NOTE:
require 'rubygems' --and--
require_gem 'soap4r'
were added.

For those mired in getting SOAP4R to work with Rails, see this thread on the SOAP4R list: http://groups.google.com/group/soap4r/browse_thread/thread/17175f520bfc520f

Note that require_gem is deprecated; new syntax is simply: gem 'soap4r' ----- I seem to be stuck with the same "unintialized constant" while integrating a SOAP-based payment service into my Rails app. :-)
