Hi there ,
I have a quick question for the group on PEAR:SOAP which you might be
able to help me with.
I have a library of custom DataMapper objects which I access through
static calls.
e.g.
================================
$invoiceCollection = InvoiceCollectionMapper::FindForDate('20060504');
================================
I want to use these Mappers on a couple of other sites thru a webservice.
In order to transport these object instances over SOAP, I've serialized
them at the server end, and unserialized them on the client end.
To look after this serialization, I created a wrapper around my
InvoiceCollectionMapper :
=================================
class SOAP_InvoiceCollectionMapper
{
function FindForDate($aDate)
{
$result = InvoiceCollectionMapper::FindForDate($aDate);
return serialize($result);
}
}
==================================
My server looks like so:
==================================
$server = new SOAP_Server();
$soapInvoiceCollectionMapper = new SOAP_InvoiceCollectionMapper();
$server->addObjectMap($soapInvoiceCollectionMapper,'urn:soapInvoiceCollectionMapper');
==================================
This is working fine! BUT.....
I have a lot a datamappers, any they contain new methods all the time.
Having create a new wrapper for each of them, and each new methods is a
pain in the chops.
Which brings me to my question..... Is it possible to have PEAR::SOAP do
this serialization and unserialization in the PEARSERVER and PEARCLIENT
objects?
e.g..
$server->SerializeEnvelopeContents(true);
Perhaps there is already functionality to handle this in the library
already, that would be ace!
Otherwise, would anyone have any suggestions on how to handle this
elegantly?
Thanks for your help!
Kind Regards,
Karl Glennon
