0.6.1 "Object #<Object> has no method 'indexOf'"

[yicone]

In my case, there are an array arg in soap request, I received this error.

After review node-soap source code(0.6.1), I'm not sure there are a bug (in wsdl.js:1431):

     if(parentNamespace) 

I debug it for a long time, found the array element's "parentNamespace" is ''(empty), so that 'namespace' is continue to be a Object, that why I received the error of "Object # has no method 'indexOf'"(throw by line 1463).

So I guess there should be:

    if(parentNamespace || parentNamespace === '')

Relatedly， when I change it as above, I received another error: "Unmarshalling Error: Undeclared namespace prefix 'xs'".

Then I found the line 1469(still in wsdl.js):

    correctOuterNamespace = parentNamespace || ns; //using the parent namespace if given

Because parentNamespace may make sense when it equals '' , so I changed the line:

    correctOuterNamespace = (parentNamespace === '' ? '' : (parentNamespace || ns));

That works for me, but I'm not sure if I do a correct fix! So I hope that I can get some help.

@yicone thanks for reaching out and debugging the code down to the problem, this is much appreciated 👍

Given your description, this seems like a legit and valuable fix to the problem, so I'm happy if you can provide your code as a Pull Request 😃

Please, don't forget to add at least one test (request-response-sample preferred) and run npm test at your local machine before you reach in the PR. I'd also suggest you read our Guideline for submitting a Pull Request as this would make the process much easier and faster 👍

We have the same issue, we cannot pass an array in the soap request args input. The 2 amendments described here fix this for us. It would be much appreciated to have this included in the next release version.
(Fix described in #536 does not work for us.)
