default_ns() - Setting Namespace for Body Elements
This section provides a tutorial example on how to set Body sub elements under a default namespace of any specified URI - Using the default_ns() function.
The next issue is to set a default namespace of "http://www.dataaccess.com/webservicesserver/" as required by the NumberToWords Web service document. I used the following test program to test the default_ns() function:
#- NumberToWords_localhost_default_ns.pl #- Copyright (c) 2009 HerongYang.com. All Rights Reserved. # use SOAP::Lite +trace; my $client = SOAP::Lite->new() ->soapversion('1.2') ->envprefix('soap12') ->default_ns('http://www.dataaccess.com/webservicesserver/') ->readable(true) ->proxy('http://localhost/NumberConversion.wso'); my $som = $client->call('NumberToWords', 102);
Result of NumberToWords_localhost_default_ns.pl:
POST http://localhost/NumberConversion.wso HTTP/1.1 Accept: text/xml Accept: multipart/* Accept: application/soap Content-Length: 615 Content-Type: application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8 SOAPAction: "http://www.dataaccess.com/webservicesserver/#NumberToWords" <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <soap12:Envelope soap:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:soap12="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <soap12:Body> <NumberToWords xmlns="http://www.dataaccess.com/webservicesserver/"> <c-gensym3 xsi:type="xsd:int">102</c-gensym3> </NumberToWords> </soap12:Body> </soap12:Envelope>
The result looks very good. default_ns() did set the NumberToWords element under the default namespace of the specified URI.
Notice that the default namespace URI also used by the SOAPAction header line.
