jcagle has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

All, I have searched and searched, but I can't find what I'm looking for...or, maybe I don't understand what I'm looking for!? Anyway, I have generated my XML (via XML::Writer). Now, I need to send this XML to a SOAP web service and get the XML response. I have the HTTPS url, username and password. Can someone please provide a simple example or point me to a simple example? It doesn't seem like this is anything crazy I'm trying do...but, I just can't find the answer. Thanks in advance!

      It looks like there's no really easy way to do this...is there?

        LOL

      Ok, I got LWP via HTTPS working. I also have the XML to send. Next step...how do I put the SOAP wrapper around the XML payload and then send it via LWP?

    First be sure that you successfully use LWP to make the HTTPS connection in the first place.   Cross that bridge first, and be sure that you are on the other side.   Then, one of the SOAP packages mentioned earlier should do the trick.   The transfer should not care that it is HTTPS vs. HTTP.
      Yes, the LWP stuff is what seems to be most confusing to me...I've never used that before.
