PHP vs SOAP

[pser]

Hi,

 

I've been asked to create and establish a connection towards a system with a SOAP server. The company hosting the external application has provided me with example code of how to connect in .NET and Java. I don't have any skill in Java so I've tried to understand the .NET example and create the same thing in PHP. So far i'm just getting a error message and the company who has provided the example doesn't have any who can support me within PHP. I hope someone here has the ability to give me a hand.

 

The .NET code starts like this:

 

static EPMService epm;

static AuthenticationCredentials credentials;

static UserCenterRecord userCenterRecord;

 

private static String read (String prompt) {

 

Console.Write(prompt + ": ");

return Console.ReadLine();

}

 

public static void Main (string[] args) {

 

String epmURL;

String username;

String password;

 

/*epmURL = read("Enter the URL of the EPM application");

username = read("Username");

password = read("Password");

*/

 

epmURL = "http://localhost/71";

username = "admin";

password = "admin";

 

epm = new EPMService();

epm.Url = epmURL + "/services/EPM";

credentials = new AuthenticationCredentials();

credentials.username = username;

credentials.password = password;

 

// Test the EPM connection

Console.WriteLine("Testing EPM connection.");

String input = ""+System.DateTime.Now;

String output = epm.echo(input);

if (input != output) {

Console.WriteLine("echo() method failed to return the same string.");

return;

}

 

ProductVersion pv = epm.getProductVersion();

Console.WriteLine("");

Console.WriteLine("----- Product Version Information -----");

Console.WriteLine(" Stream : " + pv.stream);

Console.WriteLine(" Version : " + pv.version);

Console.WriteLine(" Build : " + pv.build);

 

public partial class AuthenticationCredentials {

 

private string passwordField;

 

private string usernameField;

 

/// <remarks/>

[system.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute(IsNullable=true)]

public string password {

get {

return this.passwordField;

}

set {

this.passwordField = value;

}

}

 

/// <remarks/>

[system.Xml.Serialization.SoapElementAttribute(IsNullable=true)]

public string username {

get {

return this.usernameField;

}

set {

this.usernameField = value;

}

}

}

 

---------------------------

 

I have found a class named Webservices which I have tried both nusoap and PEAR and get the following error:

 

soap_fault Object

)

)

--------------------------------------

This is the simple code I've created just to establish connection and try to get the server respond:

$options = array(
'wsdl' => 'https://hosting2.halogensoftware.com/roxar/services/EPM',
//'authentication' => 'headers',
'implementation' => 'pearsoap',
'soapoptions' => array('trace'=>1,'exceptions'=>0)
);

$credentials = array(
'username' => '<username>',
'password' => '<password>'
);

$service =& new Webservices($options,'<username>','<password>');

$result = $service->call('echo','test');

$result = $service->call('getProductVersion'); 

//$result = $service->call('userView',array('userid'=>0));

if ($service->error !== false)
{
echo "<b>Error:</b> ";
echo "<pre>";
print_r($service->error);
echo "</pre>";
}
else
{
echo "<b>Result:</b> ";
echo "<pre>";
print_r($result);
echo "</pre>";
}

$service->logout();


As you can see of the code there been allot of editing and thing are shown up double.

So anyone out there who can help direct me so I can solve this problem.
Thanks
