=== version history of XML::Compile::SOAP
version 2.00_01: Mon Dec 29 11:13:05 CET 2008
************** MAJOR REWRITE!!! *******************
. WSDL11 based on XML::Compile::Cache, with much simpler code
as result.
. many classes and methods have been renamed or removed.
. split-off SOAP12 into distribution XML::Compile::SOAP12
. the "document" style soap interface unchanged.
. rpc-literal is much better now, like document style
. rpc-encoded not yet supported.
. pluggable back-ends for message structures (SOAP1.1, SOAP1.2,..)
and transporters (SOAPHTTP, XMPP, ...)
Changes:
- Too many changes in internals to detail.
- you have to explicitly load XML::Compile::SOAP11 yourself, to
have those definitions understood by the WSDL.
Fixes:
- fixed t/30charset.t, with double encode of utf-8.
Improvements:
- port to Perl pre-5.8.3, working around broken or non-existing
encode() [Toby Corkindale]
- report cause on client error which is produced in LWP [Tom]
- removed the [new in 0.78] added elementFormDefault="qualified"
in favor of the new XML::Compile::Schema::importDefinitions()
options which do the same.
- better trace features.
version 0.78: Fri Oct 10 15:55:39 CEST 2008
Fixes:
- improved understanding of top-level elements in XML::Compile 0.95
broke this module:
. some schema lack elementFormDefault="qualified"
changed in soap-encoding.xsd, wsdl-soap.xsd
. some problems in the RPC encoder/decoder
. disable t/51wsdl11enc.t
Improvements:
- do not use (big)float in test of t/15rpclit11.t
version 0.77: Fri Aug 15 07:48:22 CEST 2008
Fixes:
- Changes in XML::Compile 0.93 broke group processing in WSDL
rt.cpan.org#38483 [John LoVerso]
version 0.76: Fri Aug 1 13:18:21 CEST 2008
Fixes:
- Correcting fault handling. Code and tests(!) contributed

version 0.75: Mon Jul 21 09:17:10 CEST 2008
Fixes:
- Requires XML::Compile 0.90. Cpantesters [Martin Kutter]
version 0.74: Fri Jul 18 22:01:24 CEST 2008
Fixes:
- Reading SOAP failed, because improved strictness of XML::Compile
[Jason Tang]
Changes:
- require XML::Compile 0.87, which renames option output_namespaces
into prefixes.
Improvements:
- rename encoder option namespaces into prefixes. Old name still
available.
version 0.73: Tue Apr 29 18:59:42 CEST 2008
Changes:
- require Log::Report 0.17, to fulfil promisses of the doc (was 0.11)
- require XML::Compile::Tester

t/TestTools.t
version 0.72: Wed Apr 16 13:03:26 CEST 2008
Fixes:
- WSDL schemata passed to new() got parsed twice.
- schema sources were offered for compilation twice, but ignored
the last time.
- schema mix-up with more than one WSDL object. [Kaare Rasmussen]
- WSDL11->compileClient did not pass parameters to ::Schema::compile()
as was documented [Allan Wind]
Changes:
- requires XML::Compile 0.73 -> 0.78
Improvements:
- new option WSDL11(schemas).
- only complain about limitation to SOAPHTTP protocol if no
explicit transporter was defined. [Daniel Ruoso]
version 0.71: Sat Apr 12 09:58:05 CEST 2008
Fixes:
- Support XML which uses a non-utf8 encoding. Patch by [Gert Doering]
The related test needs to be updated (print cannot handle byte-
streams)
- Client does not add Content-Length field. Patch [Drew Taylor]
- headers were missing, since XML::Compile "reader in list-context"
fix. Reported by [Gert Doering]
version 0.70: Wed Apr 9 15:09:43 CEST 2008
Fixes:
- Math::BigInt with GMP caused t/14dec11.t to fail
[CPANTesters, Slaven Rezic]
version 0.69: Tue Apr 8 23:48:31 CEST 2008
Fixes:
- Trace returned on error was not transformed into an object, and
resulted in unwanted undefs.
- ::Trace->printTimings() did not handle undefs well.
- Document that SOAPHTTP::compileClient(action) is optional, not
required
- ::SOAPHTTP will use LWP::UserAgent with Keep-Alive on.
Changes:
- require XML::Compile 0.69 -> 0.73
- ::WSDL11::Operation canTransport() implementation was broken,
and therefore needed a change of behavior. Probably invisible
for end-users.
Improvements:
- Automatic reuse of transport connections for all WSDL operations
with the same endpoint(s).
- New method ::SOAP::messageStructure()
- New facility method ::SOAP::importDefinitions()
- Added ::Util::MSEXT constant (MicroSoft Extension Framework)
- Make XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon work by extending ::SOAP::Server
and ::SOAP11::Server implementations. Implementation completed.
- Added TODO file.
version 0.68: Fri Mar 14 17:56:37 CET 2008
Fixes:
- sender/receiver compile options where not passed to
::Schema::compile()
- use of ::Transport::SOAPHTTP was not correctly described
in its SYNOPSIS [Marc Sebastian Pelzer]
- SOAP.pm did not use hires-timings
Improvements:
- XML::Compile::SOAP::Trace added for simplified debugging.
This also simplifies example/namesservice/has_wsdl.pl
version 0.67: Fri Feb 8 09:16:15 CET 2008
Fixes:
- WSDL types were compiled twice.
- problems with specifying your own transporter when creating SOAP
calls based on a WSDL.
- upgrade requirement XML::Compile to 0.68
- ::Encoding::dec() [decode RPC] tries harder.
with help of [Philippe B.]
Improvements:
- Pass information about location of type definitions to
XML::Compile, for debugging and tracing.
- ::Encoding::array new option array_type
version 0.66: Thu Jan 31 09:30:18 CET 2008
Fixes:
- the SOAP message is a document, not an element. This way,
we get the right output encoding for free. Problem spotted
by [Gert Doering]
- more encoding/decoding character-set issues. Test script
in t/30charset.t
Improvements:
- details about client-side soap moved from ::SOAP into
::SOAP::Client
- ::SOAP::compileClient() moved to ::SOAP::Client::
- example for $wsdl->compileClient() by [Allen Wind]
- updated the docs, wrt non-existing SOAP1.2 support, triggered
by [Allen Wind]
- initial implementation of XML::Compile::SOAP::Server
- return multiple elements in RPC-encoded constructor.
Needed by [Philippe B.]
version 0.65: Mon Jan 7 11:58:52 CET 2008
Improvements:
- do not fail in ::Operation::collectMessageParts() if the
input or output part description is missing. [Kaare Rasmussen]
- support for one-way (WSDL) messages, pushed by [Kaare Rasmussen]
version 0.64: Tue Nov 27 11:42:45 CET 2007
Changes:
- various improvements in the output of Encode::decSimplify(),
the automatic decoded rpc-encoded messages.
- depends on XML::Compile 0.61
Fixes:
- ::Encoding::_dec_typed() confused URI and prefix.
- rpc-encoded now tests that user's constructed question has
a name-space.
Improvements:
- updated examples in example/namesservice/
WSDL example is now called: has_wsdl.pl
- added new example/namesservices examples:
New pure Schema example: has_schema.pl
RPC-literal example: rpc-literal.pl
RPC-Encoded example: rpc-encoded.pl
and 4 related simplifications, named xxxx2.pl
- added for convenience: Encoding::encAddNamespace() [without s]
version 0.63: Sat Nov 24 00:14:07 CET 2007
Changes:
- requires XML::Compile 0.60
- ::Encode::typed() now uses selected schemaNS as default, so
simplifies the type parameter.
- ::Encode::element() now also has the 'type' as first parameter,
like ::typed().
Fixes:
- detection of operation type, where WSDL used prefixes.
- some improvements and changes where not listed in the changelog
for version 0.62
- fixed ::Encode::typed() when value is already an element
- WSDL11 headers parsed wrongly. [Gert Doering]
Improvements:
- added t/51wsdl11enc.t
- added ::Encoding::nil()
- test for ::Encoding::struct();
version 0.62: Mon Nov 19 12:55:42 CET 2007
Changes:
- XML::Compile::SOAP::HTTPClient renamed into
XML::Compile::Transport::SOAPHTTP.
It is reworked to extend the new XML::Compile::Transport.
Change invisible to WSDL users, but very visible to people
who create their own messages. Some of the trace records
changed name as well.
- swapped arguments of ::Encoding::typed() from
(name, type, value) to (type, name, value);
- WSDL11(::Operation)::prepareClient() renamed into
::compileClient()
Improvements:
- moved README.todo text to XML::Compile::SOAP man-page,
because people often use pre-packaged modules and therefore
may not see the README files.
- extended the documentation a lot.
- implemented XML::Compile::SOAP::compileClient(), which was
documented but not present.
- added transport base class XML::Compile::Transport.
- compileMessage() accepts pre-compiled READER and WRITERs,
not only element types.
- implemented (and documented/tested) literal and encoded RPC.
- added Encoding::encAddNamespaces()
- added Encoding::struct()
- use fake_server to t/wsdl11.t

which does the reverse of the old one.
