note 103439 added to book.soap

I needed to perform SOAP actions and get information from a Windows ASP.NET server and encountered many errors along the way. At first I had it solved with NUSOAP, and sending my own XMLs with it, but then when I needed to use SSL it failed again. So I went back to a regular SoapClient (as opposed to nusoap_client) and now I am using the WSDL defined functions ($client->function($params)). The ASP.NET server I'm consuming is quite strange, the WSDL definition does not define the parameters I need to send, they only define one parameter and they expect me to send another XML within that. So here's my solution, in case it helps anyone: $params['trace'] = true; $client = new soapclient('https://www.myserver.xom/WebService.asmx?WSDL', $params); $msg['AccountData']['any'] = "<somexml></somexml><otherxml></otherxml>"; $client->Function($msg); $resulta = xml2array($client->__getLastResponse()); ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 85.64.91.228 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.soap.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/103439 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103439/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103439/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103439/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103439/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103439/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103439/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103439 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/103439 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
