Binary / SOAPpy

Hello Guys,

 

I have a WebService call which returns an array, the first element in that
array is the binary for a zip file, however I'm having trouble writing that
binary string into an actual file when it arrives, I've tried the following
method.

 

Result = call to the webservice that returns the array.

 

file = open("Zips/1.zip", "wb")

file.write(result[0])

file.close()

 

But this throws the error message: 

 

file.write(result[0])

TypeError: argument 1 must be string or read-only buffer, not instance

 

Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Once I've resaved this file
can then unzip it and get at all its lovely content.

 

Thanks for any input guys,

 

Rob
