[Soap-Python] How to change SOAP response headers

[Mehmet Arikkan]

I tried to add a simple header to the helloworld application:

class RespHeader(ComplexModel):
    __namespace__ = 'rpclib.examples.hello.soap'

    Elem1 = Mandatory.String
    Elem2 = Mandatory.String

def _on_method_call(ctx):
    ctx.out_header = RespHeader()
    ctx.out_header.Elem1 = 'Test1'
    ctx.out_header.Elem2 = 'Test2'

HelloWorldService.event_manager.add_listener('method_call', _on_method_call)

So now when I run the server and make a request with the Suds client, I get
a response but no header and along with the following message:

WARNING:rpclib.protocol.soap.soap11:Skipping soap response header as
'say_hello' method is not declared to have one.

When I searched in the code, it seems, ctx.descriptor.out_header is None.
But the documentation says for descriptor:

descriptor
The MethodDescriptor object representing the current method. This object
should not be changed by the user code.

So how to nail this?? Also, any docs/examples for the sampe usage?

Thanks in advance.
