note 105380 modified in soapclient.dorequest by danbrown

Note that the SoapClient.__doRequest() method circumvents the throwing of SoapFault exceptions. Specifically, if you call the __doRequest() method and it fails, it would normally throw a SoapFault exception. However, the __doRequest() method doesn't actually throw the exception. Instead, the exception is saved in a class attribute called SoapFault.__soap_fault, and is actually thrown AFTER the __doRequest method completes (but the call stack will show that the exception was created inside the __doRequest method. I successfully used the following code to query the locally cached exception object that was not thrown: <?php $exception = null; try { $result = parent::__doRequest($request, $location, $action, $version, $one_way); } catch (SoapFault $sf) { //this code was not reached $exception = $sf; } catch (Exception $e) { //nor was this code reached either $exception = $e; } if((isset($this->__soap_fault)) && ($this->__soap_fault != null)) { //this is where the exception from __doRequest is stored $exception = $this->__soap_fault; } //decide what to do about the exception here // [enter code here] //or throw the exception if($exception != null) { throw $exception; } //note: you may want to unset the __soap_fault value if you don't want it thrown again up the call stack ?> --was-- Note that the SoapClient.__doRequest() method circumvents the throwing of SoapFault exceptions.
