Hi Carlos,

great tutorial. In your tutorial you mention your email contact and that the correct way would be to implement a custom soaphandler. Are there any updates on that issue. Do you know if it still breaks the WSDL generator. If not how would one implement such a soaphandler?

Thanks for sharing this tutorial

Hi Rich.. I’m glad this article helped you

About your problem, it’s hard to say without looking at your code and config… but one common problem I used to have is the fact that php will cache the .wsdl file and reuse it all the time, so making changes to the actual .wsdl file (or automatically generating it) wont affect current file being used by php. I had similar problems a lot of times.. Not sure if that’s your case, but try deleting the .wsdl file located in your /tmp directory, and try shutting off wsdl cache on your php.ini (if u didn’t already do this)..

Hi Carlos – great post, thanks a lot bit stuck at the moment though, checked out tag 3.0.0 from the SVN repository (nothing in ‘trunk’ at the moment?), and I don’t get any parameters passed to my action $request object, despite everything else being fine. Any ideas at all? Eg if I submit 1 in the SOAP request, $request->getParameter("myId") is NULL…

Hi Przemek. I think u can simply return it as an normal string, but I never did it.

Dennis: Thanks for the tip, I used to delete the cached file from my tmp directory, but it was a pain, I’ll give it a try next time.

Perhals someone else has the problem in development: WSDL ist cached.

Nice tutorial.

I have a small question – what about including date and time (mysql ‘date’ type) in SOAP response?

Thanks,
Przemek

Thanks! Great article!

But I don’t understand what happens when the parameters of the web method are different from primitive types ?

Thanks
