Hi, I apologize for the length of the following post, but I wanted to make things as clear as I could. Hopefully I've succeeded :) Using Pear::SOAP, has anyone been able to get the "bindWSDL" (formerly "bind") function to work such that a server can use a WSDL file to validate a request from a client. Specifically, I would like to be able to do the following: <?php require_once('SOAP/Server.php'); class MyClass{ // MyClass does not call __dispatch_map // or __dispatch. This is deliberate // because I want the wsdl file to do // the work for me to validate the // client request. function myFunc($param1, $param2){ . . . } } $server = new SOAP_Server(); $myclass = new MyClass(); $server->bindWSDL('my.wsdl'); $server->service($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA); ?> One thing that seems to be missing in my code is a binding between the server object and the class object, i.e., something like $server->setObject($myclass). (In case it's not clear, setObject is a name I made up.) Otherwise, how does the server compare the implementation of myFunc in MyClass to the definition of myFunc in my.wsdl? Whenever I call this code I get the following error: "method myFunc not defined in service". So, either (a) I'm doing something wrong or (b) bindWSDL is not intended to do what I want it to do. The following code works but requires that I call __dispatch_map and __dispatch if I want to properly validate the client request. <?php require_once('SOAP/Server.php'); class MyClass{ function MyClass() { $this->__dispatch_map['myFunc'] = . . . function __dispatch($methodname) . . . function myFunc($param1, $param2){ . . . } } $server = new SOAP_Server(); $myclass = new MyClass(); $server->addObjectMap($myclass, 'urn:MyClass'); $server->service($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA); ?> I have searched extensively in an attempt to find an answer to my question, but so far without success. If anyone out there can help me that would be fantastic. Thanks very much. Jon. -- PHP Soap Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
