SOAP::Deserializer - the means by which the toolkit manages the conversion of XML into an object manageable by a developer
DESCRIPTION
SOAP::Deserializer provides the means by which incoming XML is decoded into a Perl data structure.
METHODS
context
This provides access to the calling context of "SOAP::Deserializer". In a client side context the often means a reference to an
instance of SOAP::Lite. In a server side context this means a reference to a SOAP::Server instance.
EXAMPLES
DESERIALIZING RAW XML INTO A SOAP::SOM OBJECT
A useful utility for SOAP::Deserializer is for parsing raw XML documents or fragments into a SOAP::SOM object. SOAP::Lite developers use
this technique to write unit tests for the SOAP::Lite module itself. It is a lot more efficient for testing aspects of the toolkit than
generating client calls over the network. This is a perfect way for developers to write unit tests for their custom data types for example.
Here is an example of how raw XML content can be parsed into a SOAP::SOM object by using SOAP::Deserializer:
$xml = <<END_XML;
<foo>
<person>
<foo>123</foo>
<foo>456</foo>
</person>
<person>
<foo>789</foo>
<foo>012</foo>
</person>
</foo>
END_XML
my $som = SOAP::Deserializer->deserialize($xml);

SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Deserializer - Factory for retrieving Deserializer objects
SYNOPSIS
# from SOAP::WSDL::Client:
$deserializer = SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Deserializer->get_deserializer({
soap_version => $soap_version,
class_resolver => $class_resolver,
});
# in deserializer class:
package MyWickedDeserializer;
use SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Deserializer;
# register class as deserializer for SOAP1.2 messages
SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Deserializer->register( '1.2' , __PACKAGE__ );
DESCRIPTION
SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Deserializer serves as factory for retrieving deserializer objects for SOAP::WSDL.
The actual work is done by specific deserializer classes.
SOAP::WSDL::Deserializer tries to load one of the following classes:
o The class registered for the scheme via register()
By default, SOAP::WSDL::Deserializer::XSD is registered for SOAP1.1 messages.
METHODS
register
SOAP::WSDL::Deserializer->register('1.1', 'MyWickedDeserializer');
Globally registers a class for use as deserializer class.
get_deserializer
Returns an object of the deserializer class for this endpoint.
WRITING YOUR OWN DESERIALIZER CLASS
Deserializer classes may register with SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Deserializer.
Registering a deserializer
Registering a deserializer class with SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Deserializer is done by executing the following code where $version is the SOAP
version the class should be used for, and $class is the class name.
SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Deserializer->register( $version, $class);
To auto-register your transport class on loading, execute register() in your tranport class (see SYNOPSIS above).
Deserializer package layout
Deserializer modules must be named equal to the deserializer class they contain. There can only be one deserializer class per deserializer
module.
Methods to implement
Deserializer classes must implement the following methods:
o new
Constructor.
o deserialize
Deserialize data from XML to arbitrary formats.
deserialize() must return a fault indicating that deserializing failed if any error is encountered during the process of deserializing
the XML message.
The following positional parameters are passed to the deserialize method:
$content - the xml message
o generate_fault
Generate a fault in the supported format. The following named parameters are passed as a single hash ref:
code - The fault code, e.g. 'soap:Server' or the like
role - The fault role (actor in SOAP1.1)
message - The fault message (faultstring in SOAP1.1)
