Hi,
I'm Fairly new to using SOAP so this may be stupid but..
There is a type in the Vware Vim api[1] defined as an extension of
xsd:string as below.
<complexType name="ManagedObjectReference">
<simpleContent>
<extension base="xsd:string">
<attribute name="type" type="xsd:string"/>
</extension>
</simpleContent>
</complexType>
I believe it is extending the type String and adding an attribute called
"type".
Within the Java and C# SOAP wrappers these generate a class with two attributes
"type" from ManagedObjectReference and "value" from xsd:string.
The Suds call "mor=client.factory.create('ns0:ManagedObjectReference')"
generates a
object but it seems to be missing the value attribute.
>> print mor.__keylist__
['_type']
How do I set the value of the xsd:string of the ManagedObjectReference
within suds?
as I can only set the type not the value of the xs:string I'm extending.
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers
Garth

Nah, see below.

I believe the factory (based on the schema) will create and return a
suds.sudsobject.Property object which has a 'value' attribute that is not in the
keylist.
Try setting the value and type as:
mor._type = 'foo'
mor.value = 'bar'
and then:
print mor
(Property){
value = "foo"
_type = "bar"
}
Is this true in your case?
Simple types that have attributes are quite rare and the Property class was developed for
exactly this case.
hope this helps,

Isn't it a "complexType"?
Though I'm not sure what this would mean. :-/
hope this helps,
It doesn't seem to be a property

<class suds.sudsobject.ManagedObjectReference at

DEBUG:suds.sudsobject:['_type',
'value'] must be superset of
[u'_type'], ordering ignored
(ManagedObjectReference){
_type = "ServiceInstance"
value = "ServiceInstance"
}
So this seems to work but when I try to pass it to a method that takes
a "ManagedObjectReference" object I get:-
Traceback (most recent call last):

I can enable debug if that helps and send the output? It's quite big.
Thanks for your quick response.
