Hi,

Anyone got any experience of using PHP with SOAP. It mainly for pretty simple RPC, but the implimentations seem to be in the early stages?

Any comments?


Thanks

Though I haven't played with SOAP much, it is in the very early stages with PHP at this point. I've seen several different implementations, but as of yet, I haven't seen anything stable enough to even play with.

Dude! PHP with SOAP KICKS BUTT! I'd recommend checking out nuSOAP here:http://dietrich.ganx4.com/nusoap/index.php nuSOAP is an all-PHP implementation, and it's very slick (see the site for samples).

Examples (off the site):
Example usage for wsdl:
$soapclient = new soapclient('http://services.xmethods.net/soap/urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes.wsdl','wsdl');
echo $soapclient->call('getQuote',array('symbol'=>'ibm'));

Example usage for WSDL using the proxy class:
$soapclient = new soapclient('http://services.xmethods.net/soap/urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes.wsdl','wsdl');
$proxy = $soapclient->getProxy();
echo $proxy->getQuote('ibm');

Usage Summary for no wsdl:
$soapclient = new soapclient('http://services.xmethods.net:80/soap');
echo $soapclient->call('getQuote',array('symbol'=>'ibm'),'urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes','urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes#getQuote');
