SOAP::Utils(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation SOAP::Utils(3)NAME
SOAP::Utils - a utility package for SOAP::Lite
DESCRIPTION
This class gives you access to a number of subroutines to assist in data formating, encoding, etc. Many of the subroutines are private, and
are not documented here, but a few are made public.
METHODS
format_datetime
Returns a valid xsd:datetime string given a time object returned by Perl's localtime function. Usage:
print SOAP::Utils::format_datetime(localtime);

SOAP::Fault(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation SOAP::Fault(3)NAME
SOAP::Fault - encapsulates SOAP faults prior to their serialization or after their deserialization
DESCRIPTION
This class encapsulates SOAP faults prior to their serialization or after their deserialization. The methods available are a constructor
and four accessors. Each accessor creates an object on demand, just as the other classes do, when called as a static method. Like other
accessors in the SOAP::Lite package, they return the object itself when setting the attribute.
GENERATING A SOAP FAULT
To generate a SOAP Fault simply issue a Perl die command on the server side as you might normally. The SOAP processor will intercept the
die command and return a SOAP Fault, using the string passed to the die command as the faultstring, to the client making the call. If you
require having more control over the SOAP Fault returned to the client, then simply pass a SOAP::Fault object to the die command and the
SOAP processor will behave accordingly. For example:
die SOAP::Fault->faultcode('Server.Custom') # will be qualified
->faultstring('Died in server method')
->faultdetail(bless {code => 1} => 'BadError')
->faultactor('http://www.soaplite.com/custom');
METHODS
new(optional data)
$fault = SOAP::Fault->new(faultcode => 'Server');
Explicitly creates a new SOAP::Fault object. Any of the four attributes represented next by accessor methods may be passed in the
argument list with values immediately following their attribute name.
faultcode(optional value)
$fault->faultcode('MethodUnknown');
Returns the current fault code or sets it if a value is given.
faultstring(optional value)
$fault->faultstring("There is no $method here");
Returns or sets the fault string.
faultactor(optional value)
$fault->faultcode($header->actor);
Returns or sets the fault-actor element. Note that the actor isn't always required in a SOAP fault.
faultdetail(optional value)
$fault->faultcode(bless { proxy => $ip }, 'Err');
Returns or sets the fault's detail element. Like the actor, this isn't always a required element. Note that fault detail content in a
message is represented as tag blocks. Thus, the values passed to this accessor when setting the value are either SOAP::Data objects, or
more general blessed hash references.
In addition to these methods, the SOAP::Fault package also provides detail as an alias for faultdetail. The former is the actual name of
the element with SOAP faults, but the latter name is less ambiguous when regarded with the rest of the SOAP::Lite package. Objects of this
class also have a special stringification enabled. If an object is printed or otherwise stringified, the value produced is faultcode:
faultstring, with the attribute values of the object.
