SOAP Description

Library for SOAP clients and servers in Perl SOAP is a collection of Perl modules which provides a simple and consistent application programming interface (API) to the Simple Object Access Protocl (SOAP).To learn more about SOAP, see the W3C note at http://www.w3.org/TR/SOAPThis library provides tools for you to build SOAP clients and servers.The library contains modules for high-level use of SOAP, but also modules for lower-level use in case you need something a bit more customized.SOAP/Perl uses Perl's object oriented features exclusively. There are no subroutines exported directly by these modules.This version of SOAP/Perl supports the SOAP 1.0 specification, which is an IETF internet draft. See http://www.ietf.org for details.SYNOPSIS use SOAP; print "This is SOAP/Perl-$SOAP::VERSION "; Here are some key features of "SOAP": · Contains various reusable components (modules) that can be used separately or together. · Provides an object oriented model for serializing/deserializing and sending/receiving SOAP packets (lovingly referred to in some circles as SOAP bars). Within this framework we currently support access to SOAP over HTTP, but we're open to expanding support for SOAP over SMTP and other transports in the future. · Provides a fully object oriented interface. · Supports SOAP 1.1 spec. The current version does not yet handle arrays. · Supports serializing/deserializing of sophisticated object graphs which may have cycles (a circular queue would serialize just fine, for instance). · Provides full namespace support for SOAP 1.1, which is recommended by the spec. · Implements full support for SOAP 1.1 references, including correctly dealing with shared references between header and body elements. · Experimental support for extensibility of the serialization/deserialization architecture has been included; see SOAP::TypeMapper for details, and SOAP::Struct and SOAP::StructSerializer for a specific example. · Supports servers using CGI or Apache+mod_perl. Tested with Apache on Linux as well as IIS on Windows 2000. Requirements: · Perl
