Getting Data Names in SOAP::Lite

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

Hello Wise Monks,

I am writing a simple SOAP server using SOAP::Lite. The way I get values passed on to my server is the following:

sub procedure1
{
  @parameters=@_
}
[download]

What I'd like to do is assign names to the parameters so that SOAP clients can pass the parameters by name instead of just by order. How do I define the names in my server?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Gorby

hmm.. do you mean like: `sub procedure1{ my %parameters = @_; my $var1 = $parameters{var1}; my $var2 = $parameters{var2}; } procedure1( var1 => 'value', var2 => 'value2' );` [download] cheers, J	[reply] [d/l]

In my experience, you'd need to change that slightly: `sub procedure1{ my $class = shift; my %parameters = @_; my $var1 = $parameters{var1}; my $var2 = $parameters{var2}; } procedure1( var1 => 'value', var2 => 'value2' );` [download] Note the extra shift in the definition of procedure1. rdfield	[reply] [d/l]
