Dear All
I have been using nusoap to development a client that makes SOAP calls
to a server. I have however been stuck on a small issue but can't
seem
to solve it and therefore I need to relook at using another package to
get a solution.
So I have read that PEAR also has a package that makes SOAP calls
(PEAR::SOAP). And there is PHP-SOAP.
Now Im running PHP 4.4xxx and I need to get this up and running ASAP.
What would you suggest I use as the package to make the client calls?
I have read that the PEAR::SOAP thing is fairly easy to use?
Does anyone have suggestions or recommendations or what not to use and
why?
I have fought with SOAP in PHP 5, and PHP 4, and I think maybe even
PHP 3 (shudder).
I've used nuSoap, and I think I used PEAR::SOAP once. I also tried to
use some other SOAP package once, I think, that failed miserably.
My recommendations:
#1
If you can move to PHP 5 and use the built-in SOAP there, do it ASAP.
It's like night and day.
#2
If you are stuck in PHP 4, try the PEAR::SOAP.
I believe it will handle the whatsit tag namespace-y thingie you are
getting with that <tag:0> business better than nuSoap, as I recall. I
won't swear to it in court, though, as I only use PEAR::SOAP once
before I moved to PHP 5 and my SOAP life was way way way cleaner.
Thanks Richard.
I've pretty much got it working with nuSoap but lack of documentation
and support makes it difficult to progress quickly and is very frustrating.
