Hi, Kent!



Probably the easiest (niciest? ;)) way to do that is to override

on_dispatch method for SOAP::Server, check authInfo and decide what

to do.



my $daemon = SOAP::Transport::HTTP::Daemon

   -> new (LocalPort => 80)

   -> on_dispatch(sub {

     my $env = shift;

     die "no auth info\n" unless ref $env->valueof('//authinfo');

     die "wrong auth info\n" unless .... # check for auth info here

     return; # if everything is ok and we want to use default dispatch

     # -- OR -- dispatch to specific class/method

     return 'http://company.com/My/Class', 'method'; # URI, method

   })

   -> dispatch_to('add')

;

print "Contact to SOAP server at ", $daemon->url, "\n";

$daemon->handle;



All other processing (check for dispatch_with and dispatch_to) will

still be done. on_dispatch method allows you to specify URI and

method dynamically, instead of those that specified in envelope. Hope

it helps. Let me know if you have any problems with that.



Best wishes, Paul.

Hi, I'm trying to implement a global ticket-based authentication system

where the ticket info is passed in a //authInfo SOAP field or something

similar between the client and server (after an initial login sequence), but

after this the authInfo should be parsed and verified *before* the

dispatch_to is happening on the SOAP server side. This way I don't need to

worry and implement authentication handling in each module called, rather

it's done globally before the modules are called.



I'm just not sure how to go about doing it, I could create my own

SOAP::Transport::HTTP::Daemon with a new handle function, where the requeste

come in and are handled, and then the response is sent back, but I'm not

sure how to fetch any SOAP header information at this level. Any pointers

highly appreciated. Thx, Kent
