Well there are two main soap dist for php.
php-soap and pear::soap...
pear::soap is a soap implementation in php.
php-soap is an implementaion of soap as a php extension (writtin in c).
pear::soap is currently further along in the soap standards and has a plugable
transport layer. It is more stable since it is written in php.
php-soap is alot faster but is not as far along in the soap spec and only
supports http. php-soap has perstistant objects which is a realy nice feature.
Shane wrote pear::soap and I wrote php-soap.. We currently are combining our
efforts to have one distribution. They are very simmilar. If you are trying to
tinker with soap and want to try out some samples then you could use php-soap
or if you are talking php-soap to php-soap. If you are trying to talk to alot
of different client's/servers the suggest you use pear::soap.
I don't know about pear::soap but php-soap is still alpha/beta state.
btw.. they both work on win/unix..
