Re: [SOAP] PHP overloading

Yes, overload had problems on and off that caused failures in soap, so I dissabled it. You can get the same behaviour by doing: $wsdl =& new SOAP_WSDL("...wsdl"); $client =& $wsdl->getProxy(); $client->runSearch($params); Overloading will be a default feature in SOAP when it is modified more for PHP 5.

Hi all, I notice that PHP object overloading was disabled in 0.7.1. Why was this? I'm using 0.7.2, and I decided to see what would happen if I turned overloading back on again in Client.php. I had to add a bit to the SOAP_Client->__call() function (patch attached) to make it work correctly with the requirement that $params be specified as an associative array. I'm now able to successfully call an RPC method specified in a WSDL file: require_once("SOAP/Client.php"); $search = new SOAP_Client("....wsdl",true); $params = array("searchtext" => "stuff"); $result = $search->runSearch($params); Were there deeper issues with overloading that would make it a bad idea for me to use this? I'm new to SOAP so I could easily be missing something! -Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- Client.php.orig Thu Apr 17 20:43:47 2003 +++ Client.php Fri May 9 18:04:38 2003 @@ -264,7 +264,15 @@
