XML::Compile::FAQ - frequently asked questions

DESCRIPTION

Modifing the messages

add header fields

Although WSDLs offer a nice way to define header-fields explicitly, quite a number of applications require fields which are not described. Also some W3C standards play this game. See XML::Compile::SOAP::WSA for a complex example. A simple example follows here.

use warnings;
use strict;

package XML::Compile::SOAP::MYEXT;
use base 'XML::Compile::SOAP::Extension';

use Log::Report;
use XML::Compile::SOAP::Util      qw/WSDL11/;
use XML::Compile::Util            qw/pack_type/;

my $my_ns = 'http://..../';
my $my_schema_fie = 'aaa.xsd';

sub wsdl11Init($@)
{   my ($self, $wsdl, $args) = @_;
    $wsdl->prefixes(myprefix => $my_ns);
    $wsdl->importDefinitions($my_schema_file);
    $self;
}

sub soap11Operation$$)
{   my ($self, $op, $args) = @_;
    # towards the server
    $op->addHeader(INPUT
      => "myprefix_$fieldname" => "{$my_ns}$fieldtype");

    # in server answers
    $op->addHeader(OUTPUT => ...);
}

With soap11ClientWrapper() and soap11HandlerWrapper() you can influence the client respectively server processing, for instance to fill-in default values.

On this page, a wild collection of questions are answered related to the XML::Compile::SOAP modules. Or better said: let's hope there will be more in the future. If you have contributions either in question or as answer, then please contribute via the xml mailinglist.
