I'm trying to mimic php's ability to have a a SOAP client with persistence. Which i don't think is possible in SOAP::Lite, but perhaps one of you knows a way to pull it off.

  use SOAP::Lite +autodispatch =>
      uri =>'api.php',
      proxy => 'api.php',
      on_fault => sub { my($soap, $res) = @_;
        die ref $res ? $res->faultdetail:$soap->transport->status, "\n
+";
                      };

#retuns 1 , which is correct                  
print SOAP->authenticate("user", "pass");

#retuns 0 , which is incorrect, should return 1            
print SOAP->checkAuthStatus();

any ideas if SOAP::Lite can handle state like this? A php client written to do the same works correctly.
