[VW7.4] More Web Services Problems

Well, I have some serious WebServices doubts too. I'm trying to load the
PayPal sandbox WSDL PayPalSvc.wsdl (I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post
the full URL here). This leads to an infinite recursion. I found that
two includes

eBLBaseComponents.xsd
CoreComponentTypes.xsd

both include each other, which causes the recursion. Anyway, I doubt
this is a problem of the definitions but rather a problem in the parser
who should ignore definitions that were already included (treat them
like prerequisites).

Is there a fix available somewhere? Did anyboy implement the PayPal API
already? As of now, I find the VW WebServices extremely complicated and
did not get any example to work (yet). It seems a simple quick & dirty
PHP hack could do the job better.

Re: [VW7.4] More Web Services Problems

I can't say that I've tried the PayPal WS* API, but I've hooked VW to the
Google and Amazon API's without any difficulty. I did the Google API "the
hard way", by hand, before the wizards went into the product.

There is no fix. This is first time reported problem.
Can you send me
> eBLBaseComponents.xsd
> CoreComponentTypes.xsd
files and <types> section from the wsdl file to look at?
