SoapClient->__construct() -- SoapClient constructor

## Описание

class SoapClient {
__construct ( mixed wsdl [, array options] )
}

This constructor creates SoapClient objects in `WSDL` or `non-WSDL` mode.

## Список параметров

`wsdl`

  URI of the `WSDL` file or `NULL` if working in `non-WSDL` mode.

  > Замечание: During development stage, you may want to disable WSDL caching by the mean of the `soap.wsdl_cache_ttl` `php.ini` setting, otherwise changes made to the WSDL file will have no effect until `soap.wsdl_cache_ttl` is expired.

`options`

  An array of options. If working in WSDL mode, this parameter is optional. If working in non-WSDL mode, you must set the `location` and `uri` options, where `location` is the URL to request and `uri` is the target namespace of the SOAP service.

  The `style` and `use` options only work in non-WSDL mode. In WSDL mode, they come from the WSDL file.

  The `soap_version` option specifies whether to use SOAP 1.1, or SOAP 1.2 client.

  For HTTP authentication, you may use the `login` and `password` options. For making an HTTP connection through a proxy server, use the options `proxy_host`, `proxy_port`, `proxy_login` and `proxy_password`. For HTTPS client certificate authentication use `local_cert` and `passphrase` options.

  The `compression` option allows to use compression of HTTP SOAP requests and responses.

  The `encoding` option defines internal character encoding. This option does not change the encoding of SOAP requests (it is always utf-8), but converts strings into it.

  The `classmap` option can be used to map some WSDL types to PHP classes. This option must be an array with WSDL types as keys and names of PHP classes as values.

  Setting the boolean `trace` option enables use of the methods SoapClient->__getLastRequest, SoapClient->__getLastRequestHeaders, SoapClient->__getLastResponse and SoapClient->__getLastResponseHeaders.

  The `exceptions` option is a boolean value defining whether soap errors throw exceptions of type SoapFault.

  The `connection_timeout` option defines a timeout in seconds for the connection to the SOAP service. This option does not define a timeout for services with slow responses. To limit the time to wait for calls to finish the default_socket_timeout setting is available.

array('compression' => SOAP_COMPRESSION_ACCEPT | SOAP_COMPRESSION_GZIP));
$server = new SoapClient("some.wsdl", array('encoding'=>'ISO-8859-1'));
class MyBook {
public $title;
public $author;
}
$server = new SoapClient("books.wsdl", array('classmap' => array('book' => "MyBook")));

`As noted in the bug report http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=36226, it is considered a feature that sequences with a single element do not come out as arrays. To override this "feature" you can do the following:
$x = new SoapClient($wsdl, array('features' =>
SOAP_SINGLE_ELEMENT_ARRAYS));`

`When using classmap to map the SOAP results to a class, the constructor of the object you've mapped to is _not_ called. This applies to the PHP5 __construct() and the PHP4 ClassName() constructors.`

`I kept having a problem using an HTTP proxy with SOAP. The proxy_port parameter has to be an integer, ie. "proxy_port"=>"80" won't work, you'll have to use "proxy_port"=>80.
HTH,

`If you're using CLI and there are multiple IP addresses available for outgoing SOAP-requests, try this "secret" to set outgoing IP:
e.g. for local IP 10.1.4.71:
$opts = array('socket' => array('bindto' => '10.1.4.71:0'));
$context = stream_context_create($opts);
$client = new SoapClient(null, array('location'=>'http://...','uri' => '...','stream_context' => $context));
You can also set other options for the stream context, please refer to this page:
Appendix M: http://www.php.net/manual/en/wrappers.php
Bye,
Nils Sowen`

`If you connect to a SoapServer, that has been created with session persistence, you can access the server's session id via SoapClient->_cookies[<session_id_name>][0]. This property becomes available after your first client method call.
I have only tested this with session.use_cookies=1.`

`When using HTTP basic authentication, PHP will only send the credentials when invoking the service, not when fetching the WSDL.
To solve this, one needs to fetch the WSDL manually (or using PHP, of course!) and store it on the file system. Obviously, the first parameter for SoapClient(..) then needs to refer to that local copy.
Alternatively, the user annotations at http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/ref.soap.php state that one could encode the login and password into the URL as well.
See http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27777`

`As of version 5.0.4 you can now dynamically change your location even if you're using a wsdl
<?php
$client = new SoapClient("http://some.host.net/wsdl/somefile.wsdl",array(
"location" => 'myurl.com'));
?>
notice you can now use the "location" key.
This means you can have the same wsdl file not define a location until runtime which is great if you have a development test site or if you distribute your files to other companies.
Prior to this change you would have to ship a custom wsdl file to every client you had with their location hardcoded.`

`Using a WSDL file is the way to go, however, for my particular application, the LOCATION:PORT needed to be dynamic so that my SOAP clients would be able to call a different service based on the client domain.
If you are using a WSDL, SoapClient() requires a URL direct to an actual URL and does not let you use a PHP file that outputs the dynamic WSDL XML in its stead. So, I ended up making a separate WSDL for each possible service needed and had to maintain them all if the service description changed.
Finally, after some fiddling, I was able to create a PHP page with the proper Mime type headers so that I could then trick SoapClient() to think that it was being passed a file with a ".wsdl" extension.
Example:
<?php
// filename: wsdl.php
header('Content-Type: application/xml; charset=UTF-8');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="filename.wsdl"');
$wsdl = 'path/wsdl_name.wsdl';
// read in file
$handle = fopen($wsdl, "r");
$wsdl_xml = fread($handle, filesize($wsdl));
fclose($handle);
// put code here to replace url and port in xml
echo $wsdl_xml;
?>
Now, in order to make this work, you can't just call a relative path to the file. I believe it has to go through Apache to properly set the mime type headers, etc... So you would use a full "http://....." address as the path to the wsdl.php file.
<?php
//... somewhere in your soap client code
$wsdl_loc = "http://yourdomain.com/wsdl.php";
$soap_client = new SoapClient($wsdl_loc, $client_param_array);
?>
Another, perhaps not so clean, way of achieving this would be to modify your .htaccess file in the directory where your WSDL file exists to force ".wsdl" files to run through the PHP engine. Add the following to your .htaccess:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .wsdl
You can then put dynamic PHP code snippets in your *.wsdl files to change whatever values you need to.
There are pros and cons to each solutions. The Mime solution probably taxes the system more as it has to read the file in every time a soap request is made. The htaccess solution makes it so you have to depend on either a modified .htaccess or Apache conf file.
Perhaps if you set the "soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", using ini_set(), to 1 (default), the caching will make it so it doesn't read the file every time for the Mime solution.`
