Generating PHP from WSDL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Let's if anyone can come up with a non-brittle solution to this.

In order to create the framework code for a webservice client I
have generated it from the server's wsdl. Unfortunately the wsdl
(which is out of my control) tries to use "extension base=..."
to say that 'B' "extends"/"inherits from " 'A', and the tool I
use doesn't understand it, with the result that the generated
code doesn't include that relatonship, and so sending a 'B' to
the webservice doesn't work because it doesn't also include the
expected properties of 'A'.

Possible solutions I have thought of are:

* create 'C', inheriting from 'A' and 'B' and send one of those
  instead, but of course php doesn't support multiple-inheritance;

* manually change 'B' so that it does inherit from 'A'. I don't
  like this because if the wsdl changes then that client-side
  code needs to again be changed manually.

* use composition instead. Doesn't seem it will work because the
  marshalling of the objects seems to want to use the properties
  directly (i.e. instead of using getters as it "should" do).

Does anyone have any other ideas?

Are there any generators out there that handle something like:
<s:complexType name="B">
 <s:complexContent mixed="false">
 <s:extension base="tns:A">
...
</s:complexType>
and produce nusoap client code?
