Hello,

I am having trouble extracting data from my SOAP::Lite program. I can connect to the WSDL just fine. It even returns data. (I know because Dumper tells me it is there). My problem is trying to put said data into a variable. Here is my code:-------------------------------------------------------------------

#! /usr/bin/perl
use SOAP::Lite +trace => 'debug';
use Data::Dumper;

# .NET web services expect / as a separator
# for uri and method.
my $lite = SOAP::Lite->new()->on_action(sub { join '/', @_ } ) 
  ->proxy('http://somewhere.net/rjam-request-service/svc/RequestServic
+e/3?wsdl')
  ->readable(1);


$response = $lite->call(
        SOAP::Data->name('fetchAndLock')
                ->attr({ 'xmlns', 'http://somewhere.net/request/servic
+e/3' }),
        SOAP::Data->name("first")->value(3),
        SOAP::Data->name("max")->value(1),
        SOAP::Data->name("provider")->value('homeFolderWin'),
        SOAP::Data->name("action")->value('bestMatch'),
        SOAP::Data->name("state")->value('PLACED')
        );

my $tmp_data = $response->valueof('[1]');
print Dumper($tmp_data);
my $lts=$tmp_data->dataof('//fetchAndLockResponse/request/lockedTimes'
+);

and here is what is returned on my command prompt (note that I cleaned up the response a bit to make it more readable): -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can't call method "dataof" on unblessed reference at test.pl line 28.

why cannot I extract the locked times from using the dataof part? (I have the same problem with valueof). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Frank
