NAME

       stubmaker - Generates client stubs from a WSDL file.

OPTIONS

       -d <dirname>
	   Specifies the directory you wish to output the files to. The directory must already exist.

       -v  Turns on "verbose" output during the code stub generation process. To be honest, there is not much the program outputs, but if you must
	   see something output to the console, then this fits the bill.

       --help
	   Outputs a short help message.

       --version
	   Outputs the current version of stubmaker.

STUB FILES

   STUB SUBROUTINES
       The "class" or "package" created by stubmaker is actually a sub-class of the core SOAP::Lite object. As a result, all methods one can call
       upon SOAP::Lite one can also call upon generated stubs.

       For example, suppose you wanted to obtain readable output from the generated stub, then simply call readable(1) on the stub's instance. See
       the example below.

       The following subroutines are unique to generated stub classes, and help the user control and configure the stub class.

       want_som(boolean)
	   When set to 1, SOAP::Lite will return SOAP::SOM objects to the user upon invoking a method on a remote service. This is very helpful
	   when you need to check to see if the return value is a SOAP::Fault or not. When set to 0, SOAP::Lite will return the return value of
	   the method.

EXAMPLES

   Invoking stubmaker from the command line
       > perl stubmaker http://www.xmethods.net/sd/StockQuoteService.wsdl Or: > perl "-MStockQuoteService qw(:all)" -le "print getQuote('MSFT')"

   Working with stub classes
       Command line: > perl stubmaker http://ws1.api.re2.yahoo.com/ws/soap-demo/full.wsdl

       File: echo > use full; > use SOAP::Lite +trace => qw( debug ); > my $f = new full; > $f->use_prefix(0); > $f->readable(1); >
       $f->want_som(1); > $som = $f->echoViaBase64("foo");

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.
