Re: how to grab a list of objects from a soap response

I also prefer not to parse the string for future compatibility with the 
php soap library..

I am one step further;

I now try:


Which gives me:
string(469) 
"<Projects><Project><ID>1</ID><Name>LOGIS_2007-1</Name></Project><Project><ID>2</ID><Name>LOGIS_2007-2</Name></Project><Project><ID>3</ID><Name>LOGIS_2007-3-1</Name></Project><Project><ID>4</ID><Name>LOGIS_2007-4</Name></Project><Project><ID>5</ID><Name>LOGIS_2007-5</Name></Project><Project><ID>6</ID><Name>LOGIS_2007-6</Name></Project><Project><ID>7</ID><Name>MWI_TEST_LOCATIEVELD</Name></Project><Project><ID>8</ID><Name>MWI_TEST_LOCATIE_2</Name></Project></Projects>"

So at least the string only contains a Projects collection now.

I also noticed that thw WDSL definition does not contain a description 
of the content of the Response, it simply states "any"

Might this be the problem?
