SOAP::Lite Questions

alan8373 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm beginning to play with SOAP::Lite and I'm trying to connect it to a .Net WSDL service which uses complex types on the server end (i.e. 'Transaction' has an 'Account', 'Account' has a 'Customer', etc). The books I've read (which are old) say SOAP::Lite doesn't support this on the client end. Is this true?

Also, if it does support this, are there any utilities for generating a stub to wrap around a WSDL service? If it is not supported, what are the alternatives?

Thanks in Advance!
Alan

According the to documentation on the SOAP::Lite site, complex types aren't supported (http://guide.soaplite.com/#access%20with%20service%20description%20(wsdl))	[reply]

There is no reason why a SOAP data payload cannot be constructed manually through the use of SOAP::Data and SOAP::Data::Builder. `perl -le "print unpack'N', pack'B32', '00000000000000000000001000000000'"`	[reply]
