RE: [PHP] WSDL Generator class

I'm no big fan of SOAP and certainly think it's silly that I have to use like 8 million lines of WSDL to describe a 20 line function
in PHP. I don't know WSDL - at all - don't want to know it -- shouldn't have to know it. Grrr.

Sadly I had the same frustrating experience you did and ultimately ended up using this WSDL_Gen tool too.

What do you have to modify? It worked fine for me for int, float, string, and array -- although it's kinda wonkey with a hash as it
turns it into an array -- well something does. GRRRR. Not sure if that's a SOAP "feature" or a bug or what.

All the other "solutions" (for lack of a better term) required just as much messaging to even get going. WSDL_Gen was quick and
dirty and got my app up and running in a few hours. We use Ruby to talk to PHP5 via SOAP.

I wish PHP had a generator built in, or there was a better tool actively being developed.

Subject: [PHP] WSDL Generator class

Hello all,

I'am looking for an WSDL generator class. The aim is to
generate an wsdl
file to use with the soap extension. The generator will look
at the included
classes and print all functions (except maybe abstract or
private) in a
correct xml format.

I tried this one which is great :
http://www.schlossnagle.org/~george/blog/index.php?/archives/2
34-WSDL-Generation.htmlbut
i have to modify a lot of code and it appears it's not maintained.

So what do you do in order to create WSD?

Is the soap extension or a PEAR classes will include this
kind of function?

Thanks
Brice
