Hi,
i installed SOAP::Lite using cpan shell:
install SOAP::Lite

it compiled and build ok.
but following test from module documentation
silently failed, without printing out anything

   use SOAP::Lite;
   print SOAP::Lite
     -> service('http://www.xmethods.net/sd/StockQuoteService.wsdl')
     -> getQuote('MSFT');


this is debug information (+trace):

When i use my company wsdl, i am getting following message:

"Nothing to access. URL is not specified at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/SOAP/Lite.pm line 3360"

which is not clear for me. Why URL is expected if I have provided WSDL ?



thank you for any help.

Ig

it was a typo in 2nd case. but the main issue still remains - example
from documentation returns null pointer exception. is it only for me?

Hi all,
I am new to SOAP::Lite and am trying to understand the "correct" way
of passing multiple array arguements from a client to a server.

I have the following arrays:
my @pIf     = qw(p1 p2 p3 p4 p5 p6);
my @bIf     = qw(b10 b20 b30);
my @bAs     = ();

I call the server function print_arr as
$soap_obj->print_arr(\@pIf, \@bIf, \@bAs);

On the server side, the function prints the arrays that are passed as
parameters using Data::Dumper. With SOAP::Lite ver 0.60(a) the output
on the server side is

$VAR1 = [
           'p1',
           'p2',
           'p3',
           'p4',
           'p5',
           'p6'
         ];
$VAR1 = [
           'b10',
           'b20',
           'b30'
         ];
$VAR1 = [];

With SOAP::Lite ver > 0.65, however, the output is
$VAR1 = [
           'p1',
           'p2',
           'p3',
           'p4',
           'p5',
           'p6',
           [
             'b10',
             'b20',
             'b30'
           ],
           []
         ];
$VAR1 = [
           'b10',
           'b20',
           'b30'
         ];
$VAR1 = [];

I would like to understand why there is the difference, what has
changed, and if I am doing something wrong.

Thanks,
Vijay

It's ok for me,

:~# cat soapTest.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl

use SOAP::Lite;
print SOAP::Lite
-> service('http://www.xmethods.net/sd/StockQuoteService.wsdl')
-> getQuote('MSFT');

:~# ./soapTest.pl
30.22:~#

using debian;

perl 5.8.4

and the apt package on debian for soaplite

Source: soap-lite
Version: 0.60-2

Almost :-(

my main server is back now still debian but, perl 5.8.8 soaplite

ii  libsoap-lite-perl         0.69-1

I have a very simple question.  I have been successfully using SOAP
Lite with an older version .5x for some time.  The client is
implemented on unix using perl. The server side is on Windows 2000
using .5x. I am trying to bring up the client interface on a new
unix environment.  SOAP Lite .67 is installed on this machine.  I am
getting this error an cannot figure out how to get around it.

$soap = SOAP::Lite
      -> service(http://hhhh/ggg/ggg/xxxx.WSDL)
      -> Accept(hhh,hhh,hh,hh)

I get the following:

"use_prefix has been deprecated. If you wish to turn off or use on
the use of a default namespace, then please use either ns(uri) or
default_ns(uri) at ……./SOAP/Lite.pm line 858"

I have read the following:

uri and use_prefix deprecated in next release
I have seen a lot of support requests recently asking about setting
default namespaces and the like. As a result, I will be introducing
some changes to the API that I believe makes this task much more
intuitive. Of course, changing the API should not be done lightly,
especially to a subroutine like uri which is used by every
installation of SOAP::Lite on the planet - one way or another. So it
will be slowly phased out. So what are these changes, you ask?
First, there are two new subroutines added to SOAP::Serializer and
also made available through SOAP::Lite as a shortcut, they are:
default_ns() and ns(). They set the namespace URI of a request while
at the same time express how that namespace should be serialized -
either as a default namespace or as a declared namespace. Second, to
provide a more intuitive name, use_prefix is being deprecated in
favor of one of the aforementioned subroutines. Finally, uri() is
also being deprecated for similar reasons. It's name never did make
that much sense to me, and I am hoping that ns() is more intuitive.
Keep reading to see the man page entries for these new subroutines.
default_ns($uri) - Sets the default namespace for the request to the
specified uri. This overrides any previous namespace declaration
that may have been set using a previous call to ns() or default_ns
(). Setting the default namespace causes elements to be serialized
without a namespace prefix, like so:
   <soap:Envelope>
     <soap:Body>
       <myMethod xmlns="http://www.someuri.com">
         <foo />
       </myMethod>
     </soap:Body>
   </soap:Envelope>
ns($uri,$prefix=undef) - Sets the namespace uri and optionally the
namespace prefix for the request to the specified values. This
overrides any previous namespace declaration that may have been set
using a previous call to ns() or default_ns(). If a prefix is not
specified, one will be generated for you automatically. Setting the
namespace causes elements to be serialized with a namespace prefix,
like so:
   <soap:Envelope>
     <soap:Body>
       <my:myMethod xmlns:my="http://www.someuri.com">
         <my:foo />
       </my:myMethod>
     </soap:Body>
   </soap:Envelope>


I have tried various permutations using ns and/or default_ns with no
luck.  I can't figure out what I need to change since I am not using
the use_prefix or uri subroutines directly. Do I have a
compatibility issue between the server and client?

Any inputs would be appreciated.

Hello everyone,
I'm lost about SOAP::Lite.

When I create a SOAP service via

my $service = SOAP::Lite -> service($wsdl_location);

sometimes I get SSL timeout error, so I think I need to increase
timeout.
But when I do create service via:

my $service = SOAP::Lite -> proxy( $wsdl_location, timeout =>
$many_seconds );

I get error from my SOAP server: "POST method is not supported".

I need to somehow solve this. Does anyone have any ideas?

-A.

Have you loaded the Crypt::SSLeay module and set the appropriate
certificates to establish SSL communication?

Best regards,

To clarify, here is a copy of my test scripts:

--------------
soap_server.rb
--------------
require 'soap/rpc/standaloneServer'

class SOAPServer

  class Blah
    def get_time
        Time.now.to_s
    end
  end

  class Server < SOAP::RPC::StandaloneServer
    def on_init
      s = Blah.new
      add_method(s, 'get_time')
      puts "Server started"
    end
  end

  if __FILE__ == $0
    svr = Server.new('Server', 'urn:Blah', '0.0.0.0', 12321)
    trap('INT') { svr.shutdown }
    svr.start
  end

end

--------------
soap_client.rb
--------------
require 'soap/rpc/driver'

class SOAPClient
  proxy = SOAP::RPC::Driver.new('http://127.0.0.1:12321',
    'urn:Blah')

  proxy.add_method('get_time')
  puts "get_time() = #{proxy.get_time}\n\n"

end

--------------
soap_client.pl
--------------
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use warnings;
use Carp ();

# The on_action bit unsets the SOAPAction parameter
use SOAP::Lite
  +trace => 'all',
  on_action => sub { return }
;

print SOAP::Lite
    -> uri('urn:Blah')
    -> proxy('http://127.0.0.1:12321')
    -> call('get_time')
    -> result();

In all SOAP::Lite examples I've seen, the class name was derived from the URL,
e.g. When
calling
  print SOAP::Lite
     -> proxy('http://services.soaplite.com/hibye.cgi')
     -> uri('http://www.soaplite.com/Demo')
     -> hi()
     -> result;
the method hi() of the class "Demo" is invoked.

Is there a way to configure SOAP::Lite to dispatch such requests to another
class? E.g.
     $server->dispatch_to({'Demo' => 'SomeClass'});
or even better
     $server->dispatch_to({'Demo' => $someInitializedObjectOfMyClass});
or at least
     $server->dispatch_to({'Demo' => 'MyNamespace::Demo'});

I'm having this problem in a project with several hundred classes where each
part of the
project lives in its own namespace. Hence all SOAP classes are supposed to be in
some
"ProjectNameAndVersion::SOAP::*" namespace.

Thanks,
Thomas

Have you looked into the dispatch_with method ? Here is a sample of my
code :


$server->dispatch_with
         ({ $MyClass::NS => new MyClass($cgi) ,
            $MyOtherClass::NS => new MyOtherClass($cgi),
            ....
          })->handle();

$MyClass::NS is a URL defining the SOAPAction header (at least its
beginning). It looks like "http://server/MyClass/1.0". I use the
version number as a way to support several versions of the API in the
future...
I've defined one Namespace for each of my classes, and
have only one cgi to handle them all.

So my SOAP client just needs to be called with ->uri($MyClass::NS) for
the calls to be dispatched to the correct class.

Hope this helps...

Hi,

I was browsing the internet and the mailinglist for a while but could
not find any solution to the following problem:

I have my SOAP server running using soap lite. The problem is, that
old .NET clients have problems with the

"soap:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"

attribute included in the <soap:envelope/> node of the response message.

Is there a possibility to get rid of that attribute without patching
the module? I tried already some ways with writing my own serializer,
but non of my ideas worked out.

Any help would be appreciated,
Christian

It is possible but I can't find an example in my code.
See this link: http://www.majordojo.com/archives/2003_04.html#000009
which should get you started.

I have a webservice client that might/might not be able to access the
server, so getting timeout working is crucial. It seems to work fine
over regular http, but when i try and switch to use ssl https the
timeout feature doesn't timeout the SOAP call. Anyone else have this
problem, and know how to fix it?

my $soap = SOAP::Lite
   ->uri('urn:RegisterServer')
   ->proxy('https://' . $httpsURL, timeout => 5);

	 $soap->proxy->timeout(5);
	 $soap->transport->timeout(5);

I'm using MantisConnect[0] to connect my code to the Mantis bug-tracking
system[1]. The code I wrote works with 0.60, but fails with anything
newer, and I don't know why. I've looked in the changelog but nothing
obvious appeared.

I have, in the past, built complex data structures by using bless. I'm
assuming this isn't the right way to do things, but it works (or used
to) and it's a lot simpler than mucking with SOAP::Data and friends.

Below is a script that illustrates my approach and suffers from the
problem. (Apologies for the ugliness of the transport sub - I lost the
will to make it pretty.) The 'ObjectRef' blessed refs come from previous
method calls to extract data from Mantis, also using MantisConnect. The
WSDL file can be seen at
<http://www.futureware.biz/mantis/mc/mantisconnect.php?wsdl>.

I've also added the HTTP::Request that gets sent for 0.60 and 0.69. In
0.60, the request includes serialised data for the IssueData object as
expected. In 0.69, I get

      <issue xsi:nil="true" xsi:type="tns:IssueData" />

Any help, insight, pointers, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ian

Look at the following code...

    $subscr= SOAP::Data
         ->name("subscription")
         ->type("subscription")
         ->attr({ subscriptionProfile => "OpenEGP", id => "3" })
         ->value( \SOAP::Data->value(
               SOAP::Data->name("activationstatus" => 'A'),

The attribute with a name of "id" never shows up in the XML.  If I
change it do "idz" it does.

Is this a known issue?  Is there any way to get around it?

What if I use XML::Simple to generate my request... can I pass it to
the SOAP method?  I tried, but it HTMLizes it. (changes < to <)

id/href pair attributes are used in soap to define uniquely its entities.
So rename them (or qualifiy them into a namespace).

Something like this:

$soap = SOAP::Data->name(subscr=>\SOAP::Data->value(
             SOAP::Data->name(tag1=>10)->attr({'n1:id'=>1}),
             SOAP::Data->name(tag2=>20)->attr({'n2:id'=>2})
                                            )
                                            )->attr({'xmlns:n1'=>"myns1",
                                                        'xmlns:n2'=>"myns2",});

Here the namespaces myns1 and myns2 are declared within the parent
element subscr with prefixes n1 and n2. Id attributes are then
qualified into these namespaces.

Hi,

hopefully someone can help me make this work.  I just don't see what I
am doing wrong here.  I have written my client in Java.  The Java code
is working.  I would really like to get this to work under perl instead.

Working Java code block:

private static final String END_POINT =
             "http://206.210.94.165/keystone/services/External?wsdl";


     public static void main(String args[]) {
         String USER_IDENTIFIER = "test_user_000000002";
         String ORG_CODE = "MY_COMPANY";
         String DIGEST = "";
         String PART_NUMBER = "10071";
         String PROGRAM = "fit_for_life";
         String SEED = "9f05343d89fec4";

         try {

             // Create the digest for security when communicating from
3rd Party
             // To the SenseWear Application.
             String stamp = AuthenticationHandler.createTimestamp();
             DIGEST = AuthenticationHandler.createDigest(stamp,
USER_IDENTIFIER, SEED);

             External service = new External_Impl(END_POINT);
             ExternalPortType port =
service.getExternalSOAP11Port_Http();
             ExternalCreateUser user = new ExternalCreateUser();

             user.setUser(USER_IDENTIFIER);
             user.setOrgCode(ORG_CODE);
             user.setDigest(DIGEST);
             user.setProgram(PROGRAM);
             user.setTimestamp(stamp);
             user.setSubscription(PART_NUMBER);

             ExternalCreateUserResponse c_Response =
port.externalCreate(user);

             if (c_Response.getReturn().booleanValue()) {
                 System.out.println("--External User Created-- ");
                 System.out.println("Error Code: " +
c_Response.getCode());
             } else {
                 System.out.println("--External Create Failure--");
                 System.out.println("Error Code: " +
c_Response.getCode());
             }

         } catch (Exception ex) {
             System.out.println("Unable to create the ExternalStub");
             ex.printStackTrace();
         }


Perl code that doesn't work (yet :)

use strict;
use Digest::MD5 qw(md5_hex);
use Data::Dumper;
use Time::CTime;
use SOAP::Lite;

my $seed         = '9f05343d89fec4';
my $org_code     = 'MY_COMPANY';
my $user         = 'bill_the_user'.$$;
my $subscription = '10071';
my $program      = 'fit_for_life';
my $timestamp    = get_timestamp();
my $digest       = get_digest();

print "Connecting to Bodymedia web services...\n";
my $response  = SOAP::Lite
   ->service('http://206.210.94.165/keystone/services/External?wsdl')
   ->externalCreate(

      'subscription' => '10071',
      'digest'       => $digest,
      'timestamp'    => $timestamp);

print Dumper($response);

sub get_digest {
   return md5_hex($timestamp.$user.$seed);
}

sub get_timestamp {
   return strftime('%Y-%m-%d %X' ,localtime(time));
}

Thanks for any help I can get

You want to call your service like this:

$aws_handle->ItemLookup(SOAP::Data->name('myname'=>\SOAP::Data->value(SOAP::Data\
->name('myothername'=>'somevalue'))));

Trim it to your requirements. Value of a name attribute must be a
string or a reference.

Hi Friends,

I am new to the group. I want to use SOAP:Lite.

On my linux host the current perl version is

v5.6.1 built for i686-linux

I have two questions:

1) if I install the SOAP::Lite package on my linux host..will it
work or it has some dependency on the perl version?

2) During installation, will the SOAP::Lite package overwrite any
existing perl packages or libraries ?

Your help is really appreciated.

Hi everyone,

This might be a repeat of questions in earlier post but cant find one.
I would appreciate if anyone can help me figure out one small thing
here. I wanted to create a SOAP call as follows:

<soap:Body>
   <myFlow version="1.0">
	 <flow name="myName" action="start">
	      <auth>
	          <user>user</user>
                  <password>pass</password>
	      </auth>
	 </flow>
   </myFlow>
</soap:Body>

It seems most of it is pretty simple.

    my $mySoap = SOAP::Lite ->uri("myUri")
                            ->proxy("myProxy");

    my $method = SOAP::Data->name('myFlow');
    my @params = ( SOAP::Data->name("flow"=>
                  \SOAP::Data->name("auth" =>
                  \SOAP::Data->value(SOAP::Data->name("user"=>"user"),

                            SOAP::Data->name("password"=>"pass"))));
    my $soap = $mySoap->call($method => @params);

But by no means I can put the attributes to the elements for myFlow
and flow. Does anyone know a simple solution to this?

Thanks

I'm trying to place a SOAP::Lite service up that needs to service C#
clients and it's just not working. What I have so far...

The SOAP::Lite server:

[root@gsbsfn1 cgi-bin]# cat test.cgi
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use SOAP::Transport::HTTP;

SOAP::Transport::HTTP::CGI
   -> dispatch_to('Demo')
   -> handle;

package Demo;

sub new {
     bless {}, shift;
};

sub hi {
     my ($self) = @_;
     return "hello, world";
}

1;

The C# code (using Visual Studio 2005):

// s.cs
using System;

class TestApp
{
	 [STAThread]
	 static void Main()
	 {
		 SSim ssim = new SSim();
		 Console.WriteLine("SSim.hi: "+ssim.hi());
	 }
}

//ssim.cs
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Xml.Serialization;
using System;
using System.Web.Services.Protocols;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Web.Services;


[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute()]
[System.ComponentModel.DesignerCategoryAttribute("code")]
[System.Web.Services.WebServiceBindingAttribute(Name="SSimSoap",Namespace="Demo"
)]

public class SSim : System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol {

	 public SSim() {
		 this.Url = "http://128.135.211.10/cgi-bin/test.cgi";
	 }

[System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapDocumentMethodAttribute(
	 "Demo#hi",
	 RequestNamespace="Demo",
	 ResponseNamespace="Demo",
	 Use=System.Web.Services.Description.SoapBindingUse.Literal,
	 ParameterStyle=System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapParameterStyle.Wrapped)]


	 public string hi() {
		 object[] results = this.Invoke("hi", new object[0]);
		 return ((string)(results[0]));
	 }
}

a working perl client:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use SOAP::Lite +debug;
# use SOAP::Lite;

print SOAP::Lite
     -> uri('Demo')
     -> proxy('http://128.135.211.10/cgi-bin/test.cgi')

I know VERY little about C#, I'm writing the Perl SOAP service to sit
on top of a bunch of existing Perl code so I can expose that
functionality to the C# coders/consumers here. I need to verify that
this in fact can be done and give them a sample of some working C#
code that they can use to start with.

Any help would be most appreciated.

I need to create an xml body that looks like this:
<Input_1>
  <Input_data>
      <data1 xsi:type="xsd:string">xxxx</data1>
      <data2 xsi:type="xsd:string">xxxxx</data1>
  </Input_data>
<Processing_options>
      <option1 xsd:type="xsd:boolean">1</option1>
      <option2 xsd:type="xsd:boolean">1</option2>
</Processing_options>
</Input_1>

The closest I have gotten is this:
<Input_1>
  <Input_data>
      <data1 xsi:type="xsd:string">xxxx</data1>
      <data2 xsi:type="xsd:string">xxxxx</data1>
  </Input_data>
</Input_1>
<Input_1>
<Processing_options>
      <option1 xsd:type="xsd:boolean">1</option1>
      <option2 xsd:type="xsd:boolean">1</option2>
</Processing_options>
</Input_1>

The code I am using is this:
SOAP::Data->name("Input_1" =>
\SOAP::Data->value(
SOAP::Data->name("Input_data" =>
\SOAP::Data->value(
SOAP::Data->type('string')->name("data1" => $value1),
SOAP::Data->type('string')->name("data2" => $value2)))),
\SOAP::Data->value(
SOAP::Data->name("options" =>
\SOAP::Data->value(
SOAP::Data->type('boolean')->name("option1" => $option1),
SOAP::Data->type('boolean')->name("option2" => $option2)))));


What am I doing wrong? From all of the things I have read this looks
like it should work.

Second question the service I am trying to use represents the
boolean values as true or false....not 1 or 0.  How do I get the
boolean values to be sent that way.

I'm trying to accept SOAP requests from a MSMQ server, but MSMQ is
sending some malformed messages, which I just have to accept and deal
with [example below].

I've solved some of the problems [detailed below, as well] myself, but
cannot figure out how to process a message with an empty body (other
than injecting xml which seems like a bit of a kludge). Any ideas?

* DIME Message boundary not on its own line

MIME::Tools reads message line-by-line. Created new packager,
overriding SOAP::Package::MIME::unpackage to inject a newline before
message boundaries if they don't exist.

* Non-standard header elements have mustUnderstand="1" attributes

Worked around by disabling MUSTUNDERSTAND checks.

* SOAPAction: "MSMQMessage"

Values for SOAPAction must be in format uri#anchor. Worked around by
creating an empty on_action() handler.

* Empty Envelope Body
