RE: Null return values from rpc calls

Hi Yasser!

I think that either of the following ( the first is your example ) would
be fine, per the 5th bullet at[1]:

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2002/12/soap-envelope" 
               xmlns:types="http://soapinterop.org/" 
               xmlns:rpc="http://www.w3.org/2002/12/soap-rpc" 
               xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" >
 <soap:Body>
  <types:echoStringResponse>
   <rpc:result xmlns="">return</rpc:result>
  </types:echoStringResponse>
 </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
 
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2002/12/soap-envelope" 
               xmlns:types="http://soapinterop.org/" 
               xmlns:rpc="http://www.w3.org/2002/12/soap-rpc" 
               xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" >
 <soap:Body>
  <types:echoStringResponse>
   <rpc:result xmlns="">return</rpc:result>
   <return xsi:nil='true' />
  </types:echoStringResponse>
 </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
