How to create a object to access a Complex type names in WSDL using savon

Question

I am a newbie for SAVON and ruby this is my first assignment from my client. So any help is greatly appreciated.

<complexType name="CEvent">
 <annotation>
  <documentation>The base used for all events. All events extend this structure.</documentation> 
  </annotation>
 <complexContent>
 <extension base="ttns:CItemWithDBRecordId">
 <sequence>
  <element name="user" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="date" type="xsd:dateTime" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" nillable="false" /> 
  <element name="notes" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="eventaddorder" type="xsd:short" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" /> 
  <element name="name" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="parenteventid" type="xsd:long" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> 
  <element name="attachmentlist" type="ttns:ArrayOfCFileAttachment" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="fieldlist" type="ttns:ArrayOfCField" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="resultingstate" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="hours" type="xsd:double" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> 
  <element name="assigntolist" type="ttns:ArrayOfstring" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="releasenotesversion" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="generatedeventtype" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="generatedbyname" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="totaltimespent" type="xsd:double" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> 
  <element name="overrideuser" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" nillable="true" /> 
  <element name="marksuspect" type="xsd:boolean" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> 
  </sequence>
  </extension>
  </complexContent>
  </complexType>

and i dont know how to get that and also need to update the fields of the elements with my input data.

I am accessing it the Complex name this way.

response = @client.request 'CEvent'

and the response that i got is

(SOAP-ENV:Client) Method 'ins0:CEvent' not implemented: method name or namespac not recognized

Im sure that this is not the way,as its not a method name , so im still scratching my head to resolve this.!!

I just recently completed a project using SAVON to access SOAP services on Microsoft SharePoint. You should be able to access the response data using the hash value returned by the Savon request.

response.hash[:annotation][:complexContent][:sequence]

Have a look at the article on my web site below. It is not specific to your requirement but might help.
