Spyne NullServer example.

helloworld_null.py

'''
This is a simple HelloWorld example showing how the NullServer works. The
NullServer is meant to be used mainly for testing.

    ret_string = ''.join(ret_stream)

    print

    null = NullServer(application, ostr=False)

    # see the actual return values.
    pprint(list(ret))

How do I test a fairly complex xml message like this (I do not have custom type for this because this xml message may contain attributes):

<soap-env:Envelope xmlns:soap-env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><soap-env:Body><ns0:EnterIdea xmlns:ns0="dtl.til-server.http"><ns0:ideaEntry>

This is very helpful, thank you!
