[SOLVED] Need to pass array as an argument

[rhughes]

Here is the code:

 

$client = new

    SoapClient(

        "xyz.wsdl"

    );

 

print ($client->getDocument("XGRRT2AMSU", "all", "avjx", array("all"), "ose"));

 

Basically I need to pass this array - ["all"] as an argument, I copied it from a perl script but PHP is trying to find the value of "all", how can I pass the array as an argument?

 

Many Thanks,

you can pass an array to a function in php just fine:

 

function blah ($array) {
  echo "<pre>";
  print_r($array);
}
$x = array('a','b','c');
blah($x);

 

output:

Array
(
    [0] => a
    [1] => b
    [2] => c
)

 

are you sure you are passing it in the right place?  what does your getDocument method look like?

Here is the example Perl script (presumably correct as it was provided by the Web Department)  that I was trying to convert to php:

 

# Call the doSearch() method on the SOAP client.

my $result = $soap->getDocument("B18U1T6JID",  # Your SOAP key

                                "all",  # The name of the KB to use,

                                $docid, # The docid of the KB document.

                                ["all"], # The doc. domains we limit to.

                                "ose"); # The audience we use for titles, etc.

 

Here is the outline of the method:

 

getDocument(string authKey, string whichKB, string docId, array domains, string audience)

 

Return the document docId. whichKB is the domain class you need. domains is a list of strings, naming the domains you can use when accessing this document. audience is the group to whom this document is being presented.

well assuming that the perl script and php script are the same, you should be able to pass an array in that function normally

[rhughes]

For example if I use this code:

 

$x = array("all");

 

$client = new 

    SoapClient(

        "xyz.wsdl"

    );

 

print ($client->getDocument("XGRRT2AMSU", "all", "avjx", $x, "ose"));

 

I get the following error:

 

Catchable fatal error: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string

It probably because your getDocument() method returns an object. So you cant place $client->getDocument(blah) within print(). Mayeb you want to use print_r

 

Can we see your getDocument() method.

[rhughes]

print_r worked!

 

Thank you so much for the help I have been banging my head against this problem for over a day now! Now I won't have to spend my weekend trying to figure out a solution.
