I'm coding a client application connecting to SOAP server similar to Google AdWords?.
Instead of retrieving data each time from the server i decided to marshal it to a file and load at development time.
I created a complex object that contains arrays of nested objects retrieved using soap4r v1.5.8. I got error when loaded marshaled data.
File.open("campaigns", "w+") do |f|
Marshal.dump(@campaigns, f)
end
File.open("campaigns") do |f|
@campaigns = Marshal.load(f) # Error is raised here
end
Error message:
You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of ActiveRecord::Base.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.[]

Marshaled data file is attached.
When i commented a couple of lines in the mapping.rb file error is gone.
def self.safemethodname(name)
#Thread.current[:SOAPMapping][:SafeMethodName][name] ||=
# XSD::CodeGen::GenSupport.safemethodname(name)
name
end
Currently i can't dive deeper in code but i can help with testing or providing additional info.
Thanks,
Dima Samodurov.
