1. Is __doRequest() implicitly called when a new SOAPClient is instantiated
or does it need to be explicitly called? The reason I ask is because I need
to extend SOAPClient to add certain parts of the request body using DOM.
Without extending the class, I would do something like:
$wsdl_url = "urlForWSDLHere";
$paramArray = array("param1","param2","param3");
$client = new SOAPClient();
$response = client->processRequest($paramArray);
At what point in the code above is __doRequest() called in SOAPClient?
It is automatically called during execution of your processRequest()
method. It happens after the SOAP message has been assembled and just
prior to sending it to the server. This allows you to make modifications
before it's sent.
2. If I extend the class so that I can modify the request, I assume I'd
override __doRequest() - the problem is that I can't find what the arguments
could be. I know __doRequest takes $request, $location, $action, and
$version but what exactly are these? I gather the following:
$request = the actual XML request that I can modify. Is this sitting in a
variable somewhere when I create a new SOAPClient?
not really as there is no request until you call your method which in
turn creates the SOAP message.
$location = I assume this is the location of the WSDL file?
location (URL) of the service.
$action = don't know what these values could be
SOAPAction HTTP request header (depends upon the service you are calling)
$version = not sure what these values could be either
SOAP version (SOAP_1_1 or SOAP_1_2)
In most cases you would probably just be modifying $request and leaving
the rest untouched.
The documentation is a little lax so any additional info you could provide
is appreciated. I've seen examples on the net where people are overriding
__doRequest but the only part that is ever shown is the overriding class,
not the part of code where they show how they're actually using their new
class. Does anyone know of a COMPLETE example of using a class that extends
SOAPClient? Something that expands upon what George has at his site at
http://www.schlossnagle.org/~george/blog/index.php?/archives/235-Salesforce.com-and-PHP.html
would be very helpful.

Take a look at any of the Example Usage of WS-* examples.
