SOAP::Lite 0.55 in Active Perl 5.8.7

    

Now, let s analysis afresh the SOAP::Lite amalgamation in Active Perl v5.8.7:

    

 

    
>dir perlsitelibSOAP

    
...

    
12/08/2003  09:13 AM           167,831 Lite.pm

    
04/17/2002  01:16 AM            12,182 Test.pm

    
...

    
>type perlsitelibSOAPlite.pm | more

package SOAP::Lite;

    
...

    

As you can see that this book attack is the aforementioned as lite.pm in Active Perl 5.6.1.

    

So I am bold that SOAP::Lite in Active Perl 5.8.7 is the aforementioned absolution as Active Perl 5.6.1

    

But what absolutely is the absolution amount of SOAP::Lite in Active Perl 5.8.7? Let s use the ppm

    

command to acquisition out:

    

 

    
>ppm

    
ppm> help

    
  Commands:

    
    ...

    
    backdrop - describes installed bales in detail

    
    ...

    
ppm> backdrop soap-lite

    
====================

    
    Name: SOAP-Lite

====================

    

PPM is absolutely a nice tool. It tells me that the installed absolution of SOAP::Lite is 0.55.0.1.

    

And this advice is not in the attack of the antecedent book lite.pm. I don t understand why.

    

The next catechism is what are the appearance of SOAP::Lite 0.55? Does it abutment SOAP 1.2 or not?

    

The acknowledgment is so simple to get. Just accessible the SOAP::Lite page at perlhtmlsitelibSOAPlite.html,

    

you will see:

    

SOAP::Lite is a accumulating of Perl modules which provides a simple and failing interface to the Simple Item Admission Agreement (SOAP) both on applicant and server side.

    

This adaptation of SOAP::Lite supports the SOAP 1.1 blueprint ( http://www.w3.org/TR/SOAP ).

    

The capital appearance of the library are:

    

Supports SOAP 1.1 spec.

    

Interoperability tests with altered implementations: Apache SOAP, Frontier, Microsoft SOAP, Microsoft .NET, DevelopMentor, XMethods, 4s4c, Phalanx, Kafka, SQLData, Lucin (in Java, Perl , C++, Python, VB, COM, XSLT).

    

Provides COM interface. Individual dll (standalone [2.5MB] or basal [32kB]). Works on Windows 9x/Me/NT/2K. Doesn t crave Braiding or MSXML. Examples in VB, Excel/VBA, C#, ASP, JavaScript, Perl Script and Perl .

    

Provides cellophane compression abutment for HTTP transport.

    

...

    

Conclusion

    

SOAP 1.2 is still actual new. Perl accomplishing of SOAP 1.2 is not broadly accessible yet for Windows.

    

SOAP::Lite 0.55 is accessible on for Windows. But it alone supports SOAP 1.1. For added details, apprehend
