Doc #68975 [NEW]: Somewhat misleading description

From: tbernard at qcsupply dot com Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:Somewhat misleading description Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/soapclient.dorequest --- The documentation indicates __doRequest can be used to implement custom transport layers et al. However I think it's important to note that this is only for the purpose of CALLING functions. Fetching the WSDL which is done in the constructor does not reference __doRequest and thus will not use whatever authentication, transport protocol, etc is contained therein. To fetch the WSDL a custom stream_context has to be setup instead. Took me quite a while to figure this "gotcha" out as a first-time SOAPClient user. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68975&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68975&r=mysqlcfg
