Ruby on Rails 3 and how to make web service

Question

I tried to make this to work, but I got \"uninitialized constant ActionWebService\" error when I use standard (old) actionwebservice, but if I install datanoise\'s actionweb

Answer 1

Quite a few people on github have forked the datanoise 2.3.2 actionwebservice, and have Rails3-compatible versions. Not sure which one works best, but I know this one does:

gem 'actionwebservice', :git => "git://github.com/dnordberg/actionwebservice.git"

Answer 2

As I understand datanoise's gem is not rails 3 compatible. On the github Page it says that it's version 2.3.2. However here is a rails 3 fork

Why can't you use ActiveResource? Do you have some sort of specific requirement not to use REST?
