[MOBY-dev] Updates to MOBY Central

[Edward Kawas]

Hi Pieter,

You are right. The serializer (MOBY::SOAP::Serializer) expects a string. I
have fixed it, but I think that my patch is very sub optimal. What I did was
wrap the code contained in 

do {
...
} if $_[1] =~ /^(?:method|response)$/;

With:
do {
  do {
   ...
  } unless ref($_[3]) =~ /ARRAY/;
} if $_[1] =~ /^(?:method|response)$/;

This seems to work, i.e. I see something in the soap trace. However, when I
attempt to use the array ref, things don't work for me ... I am wondering if
I should encode the strings in the array!?! 

Thoughts anyone?

Eddie

Hi Eddie,

I think I ran into a small problem. When I use  
MOBY::Client::Central::DUMP I get the following error:
-------------------
Connection to MOBY Central at 'http://mobycentral.icapture.ubc.ca/ 
MOBY/Central' died because:
         String value expected instead of ARRAY reference

  ERROR ERROR ERROR
-------------------

This happens both with:
* Old BioMOBY libs with S::L 0.60 connecting to updated BioMOBY  
Central with S::L 0.69
* New BioMOBY libs with S::L 0.69 connecting to updated BioMOBY  
Central with S::L 0.69

I'm suspecting the following line to be the cruel-pit:

MOBY::Central.pm line 3139 sub DUMP_MySQL:  return [@response];

I'm guessing your new S::L (de-)serializer expects an XML string  
instead of the array ref... Is that possible?

Cheers,

Pi in update mode :)
