Writing an Array of Bytes from a .NET web service to a file

[alkora]

Hi all-

I have a .NET web service that returns a file in the form of an array of bytes. I'm wanting to write that into a file on the client's machine, but i've been unable to do so. I mean, I can print the array of bytes to a file, but its not converted back to the format it was originally in. The following is my service code:

        [WebMethod]
        public byte[] DownloadFile(string FName)
        {
            System.IO.FileStream fs1 = null;
            fs1 = System.IO.File.Open(FName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
            byte[] b1 = new byte[fs1.Length];
            fs1.Read(b1, 0, (int)fs1.Length);
            fs1.Close();
            return b1;
        }

The following is what I have for my perl script so far:

use SOAP::Lite;

open FILE, '>boot.ini' or die $!;

#binmode FILE;

my $soap = SOAP::Lite
    -> uri('http://tempuri.org')
    -> on_action( sub { join '/', 'http://tempuri.org', $_[1] } )
    -> proxy('http://localhost:1982/FileDownload.asmx');

my $method = SOAP::Data->name('DownloadFile')
    ->attr({xmlns => 'http://tempuri.org/'});

my @params = ( SOAP::Data->name(FName => 'c:\boot.ini') );

$temp = $soap->call($method => @params)->result;

#binmode $temp;

print FILE $temp;
close(FILE);

Any suggestions for handling this array of bytes?

Thank you.
