I'm probably misunderstanding your post, but you
can place method calls on soap objects. At least, on my laptop :)
Here's an object I have in a little script in my cgi-bin:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use SOAP::Transport::HTTP;
SOAP::Transport::HTTP::CGI->dispatch_to('Object')->handle;
package Object;
sub new {
my $class = shift;
$class = ref($class) || $class;
return bless { '_cache' => [] }, $class;
}
sub set {
my ( $self, $arg ) = @_;
$self->{'_field'} = $arg;
push @{ $self->{'_cache'} }, $arg;
}
sub get { shift->{'_field'} }
sub all { shift->{'_cache' } }
Here's a simple client:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use SOAP::Lite
+autodispatch =>
uri => 'http://www.perlmonks.org/Object',
proxy => 'http://localhost/cgi-bin/soap.pl';
my $obj = Object->new();
for ( qw'So how is it possible that it stores and returns these? ???'
+) {
$obj->set( $_ );
print $obj->get, "\n";
}
print join ' ', @{ $obj->all };
And sure enough, it prints:
So
how
is
it
possible
that
it
stores
and
returns
these?
???
So how is it possible that it stores and returns these? ???
I'm not quite sure how SOAP::Lite does this - some sort of session? And not even under mod_perl or anything, frankly I don't quite get it...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
