If you have the need to do a lot of XML processing you are better off staying away from rails completely. The State of SOAP on rails is a mess to the point of being practically unusable. The XML and json deserialization is like playing russian roulette with five bullets in the chamber.
Try it yourself. u = User.find(1). xml = u.to_xml ... Change the xml. u.from_xml(xml) Doesn't work. Same with json. Doesn't work. Half the time from_xml can't parse the xml to_xml put out. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
