Hello,

My Python application calls web services available on the Internet. The 
web service being called is defined through application user input.

The Python built-in library allows access to web services using HTTP 
protocol, which is not acceptible - generating SOAP messages for 
arbitrary web services is something i wish to avoid.

I need a package/tool that generates web service proxies that will do 
all the low-level HTTP work. (Someting like the WSDL.EXE tool in .NET 
Framework) The ZSI and SOAPy packages [1] that i found (should) have 
those functionalities but either have a bug (SOAPy) or either do not 
work for arbitrary web services (ZSI). I tried the ZSI wsdl2py script on 
a wsdl of one of my services, and the script crashes. I suppose the wsdl 
was "too hard" for the script to parse.

Are there any other packages that utilize generation of web service 
proxies that are compatible with SOAP & WSDL standards?

Thank you,
ivan zuzak
