[Twisted-Python] Escaping variable names
Hi, Ive got an issue where a variable name needs to have a minus sign (-) in it. from SOAPpy import WSDL wsdlFile = "http://webapi.allegro.pl/uploader.php?wsdl" server = WSDL.Proxy(wsdlFile) server.soapproxy.config.argsOrdering = {'doGetCountries': ['country-code', 'webapi-key'] } server.doGetCountries(country-code=COUNTRYID}, webapi-key=WEBAPIKEY) The above method allows me to specify the order and name of variables being sent, but i have a problem since the variables have a "-" sign in the middle, is there a way to escape it in the variable name or get around the problem? Thanks!

Yes, you can pass them from a dictionary using the ** syntax: server.doGetCountries(**{ 'country-code': COUNTRYID, 'webapi-key': WEBAPIKEY }) However, if you have the ability to change the API, it would be better to use underscores as separators in the argument names instead of dashes. Bye, Maarten

Unfortunately the designer of the API is a large British company that forgot to take into account other languages than PHP.
