SOAP::Lite Bug?

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

Dear monks!

I am testing SOAP::Lite in conjunction with wsdl to enable real cross language functionality for web services and to learn wsdl.

Looks like theres a problem with additional namespaces and wsdl parsing in SOAP::Lite. I defined an array containing at least 1 and max 10 Elements of type string .

It looks like the SOAP::Lite Modules has problems enclosing all namespaces in the SOAP document.

The errormessage I get is:
Client Application failed during request deserialization: Unresolved prefix 'xsd1' for attribute value 'xsd1:StringArray'

Is there a way to work around that, e.g. include the TestArray definition in the main namespace?


<wsdl:definitions
    name="TestArray"
    targetNamespace="http://xxx.xxx.xxx/TestArray.wsdl"
    xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"
    xmlns:tns="http://xxx.xxx.xxx/TestArray.wsdl"
    xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
    xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
    xmlns:xsd1="http://xxx.xxx.xxx/TestArray.xsd1"
    xmlns:xsd2="http://xxx.xxx.xxx/TestArray.xsd2">
    <wsdl:documentation 
xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"></wsdl:documentation>
    <wsdl:types>
        <xsd:schema
            targetNamespace="http://xxx.xxx.xxx/TestArray.xsd1"
            xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
            xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
            xmlns:xsd1="http://xxx.xxx.xxx/TestArray.xsd1">
            <xsd:complexType name="StringArray">
                <xsd:sequence>
                    <xsd:element maxOccurs="10" minOccurs="1" name="El
+ement" 
type="xsd:string"/>
                </xsd:sequence>
            </xsd:complexType>
        </xsd:schema>
    </wsdl:types>
   <wsdl:message name="GiveMeAnArrayRequest">
        <wsdl:part name="InArray" type="xsd1:StringArray"/>
    </wsdl:message>
    <wsdl:message name="GiveMeAnArrayResponse">
        <wsdl:part name="OutArray" type="xsd1:StringArray"/>
    </wsdl:message>

The WSDL File was created with CapeClear SOAEditor, a freely available WSDL Editor.

Just found out that you (obviously) cant include the StringArray definition into xsd, since this is defined elsewhere (xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"). So this solution wont work. Has anyone a better idea? cat /dev/world \| perl -e "(/(^.*? \?) 42\!/) && (print $1))" errors->(c)	[reply]
