guidelines for namespace naming. It's not compatible with Ruby language
to have lowercased namespaces since they behave like modules. Module names must
start with an upper case. We can add some API to overcome this, but it won't
be pretty. Something like</span></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">It seems like the current
version does not handle lower case namespaces when referencing a .NET
DLL. It thinks it is a method call whenever a constant starts with lower
case. It also doesn't handle non-alphabet characters such as _
(underscore).<br>
<br>
I'm trying to call WCF service from IronRuby via the proxies file. svcutil
converts all namespaces in the proxies file to lower case. Here's some
info on it:<br>

<br>
I also noticed that "puts" does not output the value of Int64.
However, it does if I use Console.WriteLine in my ruby program.</p>
