I am trying to use soapclient to connect to a web service. Unfortunately, I'm
having trouble figuring out how to get php to understand the wsdl file and
send back the correct message - particularly on a function that wants an
array that forms a complex type.
Replying to myself just in case anyone else has similar issues. I found a
work-around that will at least get me up and running.
I found that I can simply construct the correct xml message and send it
over with __doRequest which simply returns the response. This works OK
since the reply value is simply a boolean anyway in my case, so parsing
that will be pretty easy. However, it would be nice if I could just call
the function and have soapclient understand how to construct it.
But, here is what I did.
$client = new SoapClient($wsdl,$options);
$location = "http://urlto/webservice";;
$hostkey = "1.1.1.1";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$auth = getAuthXML($hostkey,$username,$password);
$response = $client->__doRequest($auth,$location,$action,$version);
print $response; # in my case response is true/false
The getAuthXML function is simply taking the variables I want to use and
constructing an xml message from it. The __doRequest then sends over that
XML message. This is vs calling the authenticate function and having
soapclient attempt to construct the xml message itself based on your
arguments.
function getAuthXML($hostkey,$username,$password) {
$auth = <<<EOD
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <soapenv:Envelope
xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";
xmlns:xsd="http://w ww.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"

<soapenv:Body>

</credentials>
</ns1:authenticate>
<multiRef id="id0" soapenc:root="0"
soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/en
coding/" xsi:type="ns2:Credential"
xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; xm
lns:ns2="http://common.wsg.sesm.cisco.com";>
<identity href="#id1"/>
<credential xsi:type="soapenc:string">$password</credential>
</multiRef>
<multiRef id="id1" soapenc:root="0"
soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/en
coding/" xsi:type="ns3:Identity"
xmlns:ns3="http://common.wsg.sesm.cisco.com"; xmlns:soapenc="ht
tp://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<type xsi:type="soapenc:string">user</type>
<principal xsi:type="soapenc:string">$username</principal>
</multiRef>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
EOD;
return $auth;
}
Hope that helps someone. If anyone does still have advice on correcting
my wsdl file or php workaround for this (perhaps classmap?), I'd love to
hear them.
Thanks
