[jruby-user] SOAP Libraries, was: JRuby 1.7.17: getppid unsupported or native support failed to load

Michael -

An unrelated question...how are you finding Savon?  Did you need 
compatibility with MRI Ruby?  I ask because my impression was that if I 
were to deal with SOAP in JRuby, I'd use a Java library since the Java 
world has been using SOAP so heavily for a long time.  But I never tried 
it, so I don't have any idea if that is really a wise approach.

I once tried to use Soap4R many years ago, and it was a disaster.  I 
heard that Savon was better, but I don't know how much better.
