Release notes for SOAP::WSDL 3.004
o. Bug #131509 FTBFS: test failures with libtimedate-perl 2.3100
TimeDate 1.21 strptime() began returning an additional argument,
breaking t/SOAP/WSDL/XSD/Typelib/Builtin/dateTime.t. Corrected
test. Reported by gregoa@cpan.org. Thanks, gregoa.
o. Bug #103762: missing Build.PL in MANIFEST, bug in CGI.t
Added IO::Scalar as a testing dep, removed Build.PL from MANIFEST and
install instructions. Thanks SREZIC and ZOFFIX.
o. Bug #103762: missing Build.PL in MANIFEST, bug in CGI.t
Correct CGI.t that preserves the path so Windows can find the XML
parser binary. Thanks, arfreitas.
o. Bug #103762: missing Build.PL in MANIFEST, bug in CGI.t
Removed additional references to Build.PL.

Allow empty endpoints. Thanks, Andrew Bauer.
Release notes for SOAP::WSDL 3.003
-------
o. change the base module for SOAP::WSDL::SOAP::HeaderFault to SOAP::WSDL::SOAP::Header instead of inexisting module SOAP::WSDL::Header
Release notes for SOAP::WSDL 3.002
o. Declare dependency on Class::Load -- thanks ANDYK
o. link to GitHub from META files -- thanks szabgab
Release notes for SOAP::WSDL 3.00.00_1
-------
o. fix a hash randomization bug that was causing random failures in t/SOAP/WSDL/05_simpleType-list.t
o. 2624a9 for #86142, adding the XML declaration to the output, broke another part of the system, so work around that.
I accidentally stopped doing "recursive" tests (tests in subdirs) at some point and missed some of this fun breakage.
o. dam@cpan.org's fix for using not using ->usa('UNIVERSAL') to test if something loaded apparently works in a situation
where mine doesn't, that was causing tests to fail; use that version instead.
Release notes for SOAP::WSDL 3.00.00_1
-------
Scott Walters has assumed co-maint of this module and is ashamed to release 3.00.00_1.
Numerous fixes have been made to get tests to pass again on newer perls.
Please see the git log at http://github.com/scrottie/SOAP-WSDL for additional detail.
o. applied patch from ticket #86142: Missing XML declaration in request
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=86142
tests still pass, so, good enough, right?
o. Huh. Between 5.12 and 5.16 somewhere, the behavior of ClassName->isa('UNIVERSAL') changed.
It used to be that that would return true if and only if that namespace existed.
Now it always returns true for any random non-existant made up name.
Changed this to do ->can() on a known existing method modules with this API have (serialize)
instead after floundering around for a bit. exists ${"main::"}{$type.'::'} worked a little
bit but made it barf for some reason I didn't investigate.
This is the problem apparently behind the previous "haunted house level shit" fixes and
reversions. This thing does automatically load these modules on the fly. Would be nice
if the unit tests had some comments in them.
o. There were two calls to get_port() right next to
each other, in the very same ? :, and one of them had a ->[0]
tacked on the end and the other one didn't. Well guess what...
the one without was returning an arrayref, which caused these
failures in the unit tests:
Can't call method "get_binding" on unblessed reference at /home/scott/projects/SOAP-WSDL/blib/lib/SOAP/WSDL.pm line 186.
o. protip: reverse %hash with '#default' => 'urn:myNamespace', 'tns' =>
'urn:myNamespace' results in misery. random hash ordering made a pile of
tests in t/003_wsdl_based_serializer.t randomly pass and fail in unison.
o. "vectors" (totally not the same thing as a vector in other languages or on a Cray 1)
have been deprecated and removed. pretend like they never existed.
o. fix two instances of the "Can't modify non-lvalue subroutine call at lib/SOAP/WSDL.pm line 167." error.
it looks like the author wrote
return $a ? $b : $c = $d
Intending it to mean:
return $a ? $b : ($c = $d);
... but perl parses it as:
return ( $a ? $b : $c) = $d;
... and perl 5.16 is more astute about lvalue errors like that.
Release notes for SOAP::WSDL 2.00.10
-------
I'm proud to present a new release of SOAP::WSDL.
SOAP::WSDL is a toolkit for creating WSDL-based SOAP client interfaces in perl.
Features:
* WSDL based SOAP client
o SOAP1.1 support
o Supports document/literal message style/encoding
* Code generator for generating WSDL-based interface classes
o Generated code includes usage documentation for the web service interface
* Easy-to use API
o Automatically encodes perl data structures as message data
o Automatically sets HTTP headers right
o Datatypes provide hints on method names on calls to non-existant
methods
* Efficient documentation
o SOAP::WSDL::Manual guides you at getting your work done, not at
the module's internals
* Examples in Perl and Java
* Thorough test suite
o SOAP::WSDL is heavily regression tested, with a test coverage of
over 95% (excluding documentation - you wouldn't want to read
through it all).
* SOAP::Lite like look and feel
o Where possible, SOAP::WSDL mimics SOAP::Lite's API to allow easy migration
* XML schema based class library for creating data objects
* High-performance SOAP Message parser
* Plugin support. SOAP::WSDL can be extended through plugins in various aspects.
The following plugins are supported:
o Transport plugins via SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Transport
o Serializer plugins via SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Serializer
o Deserializer plugins via SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Deserializer
The following changes have been made:
2.00.10 - May 15 2009
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
The numbers with # are CPAN RT IDs (http://rt.cpan.org/).
* #44546: XML Schema types with names cuase errors when including anonymous types
SOAP::WSDL now handles element names with "." correctly
* #45037 ComplexTypes' elements in different namespaces not serialized
correctly
SOAP::WSDL now serializes elements in different namespaces correctly
* #43769 Fault11 serialization issue when passed Element for detail
The detail fault element is now automatically wrapped into an appropriate
detail object and serialized correctly.
Note that passing a list as details content is not supported yet.
* #43674 Fault not caught/propagated in SOAP::WSDL::Client::call
Deserializer faults in SOAP::WSDL::Client now propagate correctly to the
caller.
The following uncategorized improvements have been made:
* improved Java example: Commented test class
* improved documentation: Added Cookbook entry for HTTP Negotiate Authentication
(Kerberos).
2.00.09 - Feb 22 2009
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
The numbers with # are CPAN RT IDs (http://rt.cpan.org/).
* [ 2631555 ] Template used without version
* [ 2631220 ] Faults generated with soap:Server actor
2.00.08 - Feb 22 2009
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
The numbers with # are CPAN RT IDs (http://rt.cpan.org/).
* [2628386] SOAP::WSDL::Generator::Visitor::Typelib still used in tests
* #41453: Content-Type 'charset=...' not set in HTTP header
Already fixed in 2.00.07
2.00.07 - Feb 21 2009
The following features were added (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660924):
* [ 2621474 ] Add Non-Perl examples / test client / Servers
The distribution now includes a Java / Apache CXF example.
* [ 2585274 ] Create a HTTP::Server::Simple based SOAP Server
SOAP::WSDL now ships with a server class to use with HTTP::Server::Simple
for testing purposes. See SOAP::WSDL::Server::Simple for details.
* [ 1911232 ] Allow skipping unknown XML elements
See SOAP::WSDL::Manual::Cookbook on how to use this feature
* [ 2505421 ] include XML attributes in as_hash_ref
ComplexTypes now include XML attributes in as_hash_ref's result under the
special key "xmlattr".
As a side effect, as_hash ref now works for ComplexType objects with a
simpleContent content model, too (though the results may be misleading:
Their value is included under the hash key "value", the only other
possible hash key is "xmlattr").
* [ 1960062 ] Use POSIX::strftime for date conversion
Not really a feature, but a little speedup. The Feature request is
obsoleted by resorting to good old sprintf for date formatting.
Speeds up set_value in date and dateTime Objects by around 30% for non-
XML-formatted strings.
As a side effect, dateTime now does not allow setting 0 as date.
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
The numbers with # are CPAN RT IDs (http://rt.cpan.org/).
* [ 2621471 ] SOAP::WSDL::Server sends fault with invalid namespace prefix
Faults now use the correct prefix.
* [ 2560208 ] elementFormDefault always "qualified"
SOAP::WSDL now respects the elementFormDefault attribute in embedded
XML Schemas.
* #42049: [PATCH] SOAP::WSDL uses default User-Agent
SOAP::WSDL now announces itself as "SOAP::WSDL $VERSION" instead of
"libwww/perl $VERSION" in HTTP requests. Note however, that this only
applies for wsdl2perl, SOAP::WSDL and SOAP::WSDL::Transport::HTTP.
SOAP::Transport HTTP (from the SOAP-Lite distribution) is not affected.
* [ 2533903 ] Imported schema overwrites existing XML namespace/prefix map
Importing a schema which defined the same XML namespace prefix as the
importing schema, but with a different URI resulted in having the URI
of the associated with the prefix from the imported schema set in the
importing schema.
* #42388 [PATCH] Disabling 'die' in Typemaps
Duplicate of [1911232] Allow skipping unknown XML elements - see added
features.
* #42179 Problem deserializing SOAP messages that contain only a simpleType
Now the top-level element may consist of a simpleType only, too.
The following uncategorized improvements have been made:
* Fixed a =back error in element POD generation
* Improved test suite
* Improved documentation
* Improved TEST_COVERAGE to report coverage correctly
2.00.06 - Dec 03 2008
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
The numbers with # are CPAN RT IDs (http://rt.cpan.org/).
* #40658 wsdl2perl - prefix option
The prefix option is now changed to behave more practical
* #40802 wsdl2perl problems with special url
The "fixed" attribute caused an error.
* #40650 Deserialization on inherited types
The inherited complexType variety (sequence/all/choice...) did not get
propagated to derived complexTypes. Thus, derived complexTypes which did
not add elements lost all inherited elements.
* #40108 Test failure on Cygwin
Fixes a test failure on Cygwin due to a malformed file:// URL
* #40021 charset: utf-8
Removed duplicate charset in HTTP requests issued by
SOAP::WSDL::Transport::HTTP. Replaced the utf8 by utf-8 in HTTP requests
* #39715 Error with complexType extension base without child elements
A rather subtle error caused by a wrong init value (undef) for the list
of child elements in a complexType sequence.
* [ 2005693 ] <maxLength fixed ="true"> causes error
* [ 2023797 ] type extensions not handled correctly
ComplexType objects now test their elements with ->isa, not with ref
* [ 2021755 ] Generating nested complexType extensions throws errors
2.00.05 - Jul 13 2008
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
The numbers with # are CPAN RT IDs (http://rt.cpan.org/).
* [ 2014482 ] Big-O memory hole when parsing WSDL
SOAP::WSDL still leaks memory when using SOAP::Lite's transport backend
This is to be fixed in 0.710.08 in SOAP::Lite
* #36865 wsdl2perl.pl fails on Expat error
Resolved by dropping a note for Solaris in README
* [ 2005693 ] <maxLength fixed ="true"> causes error
The >fixed< attribute is now recognized (but has no effect yet)
The following uncategorized improvements have been made:
* added missing Class::Std::Storable::Fast import flags to
SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib::Builtin::IDREFS
* some code cleanup
2.00.04
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
The numbers with # are CPAN RT IDs (http://rt.cpan.org/).
* [ 1972059 ] Can't set timeout via SOAP::WSDL
* [ 1961409 ] Error with unqualified references in imported schema
* #35873: SOAP::WSDL -- Can't locate object method "set_Action" via package "SOAP::WSDL::OpMessage"
* [ 1969427 ] Mod_Perl.t broken when mod_perl is unavailable
* #35610 Test fails when Test::Without::Module is installed
The following uncategorized improvements have been made:
* Changed the environment variable for author tests to "RELEASE_TESTING",
as defined by the Oslo QA Hackathon 2008
(see http://perl-qa.hexten.net/wiki/index.php/Oslo_QA_Hackathon_2008_:Achievements)
* Enhanced documentation
* Fixed a wrong error message

generator, to avoid testing every attribute
2.00_33 - Mar 30 2008
The following features were added (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660924):

* The XSD generator now uses the relevant <wsdl:portType>'s
targetNamespace for finding operation messages, not the <wsdl:definition>
element's targetNamespace
* Attribute handling has been improved so it could possibly work.
Attributes from different namespaces are probably still broken.
* Attribute ref handling has been added (though probably broken on

WARNING: INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE:
SOAP::WSDL now uses Class::Std::Fast. Read the MIGRATING guide for
upgrading from previous versions.
You probably need to re-generate all your interfaces.
WARNING: INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE:
SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib::anySimpleType based objects no longer serialize
to their XML value on stringification.
This means that strings are no longer XML-escaped when the simpleType
containing the string is printed or used like this:
my $value = "$simpleType";
Note that ComplexType objects still serialize to their XML on
stringification. This Change is due to the demands of applications
embedding SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib objects in templates - it would mean
a nasty ->get_value for every (simple) value.
The following features were added (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660924):
* [ 1837347 ] Use Class::Std::Fast
Class::Std::Fast allows optimizations which almost double SOAP::WSDL's
performance and reduce code size. Class::Std::Fast also opens the door
for even faster XS implementations.
* [ 1842436 ] Add SOAP Server
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):

The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
* [ 1772617 ] SOAP Header not working
Added header support. Currently, SOAP headers are only supported with
the SOM or the XSD (SOAP11) serializer.
* [ 1805238 ] Tests in t/SOAP/WSDL don't work when run from t/
* [ 1805241 ] explain() broken in SOAP::WSDL
explain has been removed from SOAP::WSDL
The following uncategorized improvements have been made:
* Added limited support for complexType complexContent content model with
restriction variety.
SOAP::WSDL now supports this XML Schema definition variant, although no
constraints are imposed on derived types yet.
Derived types do not serialize with a xsi:type attribute (and the xsi:type
attribute is not recognized by the XML parser), so you cannot use derived
types as a substitute for theri parent, yet.
* Added support for complexType choice variety
complexType definitions using the choice variety are now supported,
even though the content is not checked (if you pass in invalid data,
invalid XML will be generated).
* Added Loopback Transport backend.
SOAP::WSDL::Tranport::Loopback just returns the request as respons, but
allows testing the whole chain from user interface to transport backend.
* Fixed SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Transport prefer user-registered
transport backend
* Fixed set_soap_version method in SOAP::WSDL::Client.
Re-setting the SOAP version now invalidates (resets) serializer and
deserializer, but not the transport backend.
* Fixed SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib::Builtin::boolean to return false
when false and true when true.
* SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib::Builtin::normalizedString now replaces all
occurences of tab, newline and carriage return by whitespce on set_value.
* Code cleanup
o Lots of orphan methods now replaced by the SOAP::WSDL::Generator
hierarchy have been removed.
o Unused (and unusable) readable option checking has been removed in
SOAP::WSDL::Serializer::SOAP11.
o Unused XML Schema facet attributes have been removed from XSD Builtin
classes
o Methods common to all expat parser classes have been factored out
into a common base class.
* XML serialization speedup for SOAP::WSDL::XSD::* objects
* Tests added to improve test coverage.
* A few documentation errors have been fixed
* Misspelled default Typemap and Interface prefixes have been corrected
2.00_16

The following features were added (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660924):
* [ 1761532 ] Support embedded atomic types
SOAP::WSDL now supports a greater variety of XML Schema type definitions.
Note that XML Schema support is still incomplete, though.
* [ 1797943 ] Create Perl Hash Deserializer
There's a new deserializer which outputs perl hashes as data structures.
Much like XML::Simple, but faster. No XML Attribute support, though.
* [ 1797678 ] Move Code generator from WSDL::Definitions to separate class
* [ 1803330 ] Create one interface per port
SOAP::WSDL now creates one interface per port, not one per service.
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
* [ 1804441 ] parts from binding not regarded in SOAP::WSDL
SOAP::WSDL (interpreter mode) now respects the body parts specified in the
binding.
* [ 1803763 ] nonNegativeInteger misspelled in Schema::Builtin
* [ 1793965 ] _expand() does not work on non-root-node ns declarations
* [ 1792348 ] 006_client.t requires SOAP::Lite in 2.00_15
SOAP::WSDL no longer attempts to load SOAP::WSDL::Deserializer::SOM when
no_dispatch is set.
006_client.t now sets outputxml(1), to be really sure.
The following uncategorized improvements have been made:
* Code generator only generates interface for the first port in a service
The code generator now generates interfaces for all ports.
Note: The naming scheme has changed. It is now
InterfacePrefix::Service::Port
* XML Parser speedup
The XML parser has received a little speedup.
* A number of errors in parsing / traversing WSDL documents have been
corrected.
* Documentation has been improved
* A number of (incorrect, but passing) tests have been fixed.
* Code cleanup: The SOAP::WSDL::SAX* modules are no longer included, as they
are not supported any more. They can still be found in SOAP::WSDL's
subversion repository in the attic directory, though.

of SOAP::Deserializer from SOAP::Lite
* Factories now emit more useful error messages when no class is registered
for the protocol/soap_version requested
* Documentation has been improved
- refined ::Factory:: modules' documentation
* Several tests have been added
* XSD classes have been improved for testability

A test transport backend has been implemented (SOAP::WSDL::Transport::Test).
It returns the contents from a file and discards the response.
The filename is determined from the soap_action field.
* [ 1785196 ] Replace outputsom(1) by deserializer plugin
outputsom(1) in SOAP::WSDL is now implemented via using the deserializer
plugin SOAP::WSDL::Deserializer::SOM.

The superficious usage of XML::LibXML has been removed. XML::LibXML with
sax filter has been replaced by SOAP::WSDL::Expat::WSDLParser.
* [1787054] Test suite requires XML::LibXML in 2.00_11
The test suite no longer requires XML::LibXML to pass.

----
The following features were added (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660924):
* [1767963] Transport plugins via SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Transport.
SOAP::WSDL uses SOAP::Lite's tranport modules as default, with a
lightweight HTTP(S) transport plugin as fallback.
Custom transport modules can be registered via SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Transport.
* [ 1772730 ] Serializer plugins via SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Serializer

method.
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
* [ 1764854 ] Port WSDL parser to expat and remove XML::LibXML dependency
SOAP::WSDL now requires only XML::Parser to be installed.
XML::LibXML is not required any more, though XML::LibXML based modules still
exist.
