Hi,

I've searched the php docs without luck trying to find out what is the
current status of the soap support under php5.

I am about to start developing a project that will need soap and I am
trying to decide if I will use Java or PHP.

I do not have a list of features that I need but I'd like to know what
it can and can't do.

thanks.


The SOAP extension is pretty stable, Zend took and re-did the ageing PECL extension.

Its also *really* easy to use :)

It can do most anything, but you cannot custime the SOAP XML except through pre-defined modifiers - PEAR::SOAP is more customizeable.

PEAR::SOAP however will be slower than the extension.

The big issues with ext/soap is the following:

* Can't auto-generate a WSDL (I have written PHP code to do this though :)

* Can't auto-generate skeleton code from a WSDL (I also wrote code for this ;)

But, as I said, its very nice otherwise :D
