Release notes for SOAP::WSDL 2.00_32
-------
I'm proud to present a new pre-release version of SOAP::WSDL.
SOAP::WSDL is a toolkit for creating WSDL-based SOAP client interfaces in perl.
Features:
* WSDL based SOAP client
o SOAP1.1 support
o Supports document/literal message style/encoding
* Code generator for generating WSDL-based interface classes
o Generated code includes usage documentation for the web service interface
* Easy-to use API
o Automatically encodes perl data structures as message data
o Automatically sets HTTP headers right
* Efficient documentation
o SOAP::WSDL::Manual guides you at getting your work done, not at
the module's internals
* Thorough test suite
o SOAP::WSDL is heavily regression tested, with a test coverage of
over 95% (excluding documentation - you wouldn't want to read
through it all).
* SOAP::Lite like look and feel
o Where possible, SOAP::WSDL mimics SOAP::Lite's API to allow easy migrations
* XML schema based class library for creating data objects
* High-performance XML parser
* Plugin support. SOAP::WSDL can be extended through plugins in various aspects.
The following plugins are supported:
o Transport plugins via SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Transport
o Serializer plugins via SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Serializer
o Deserializer plugins via SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Serializer
The following changes have been made:
2.00_32

WARNING: INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE:
SOAP::WSDL now uses Class::Std::Fast. Read the MIGRATING guide for
upgrading from previous versions.
You probably need to re-generate all your interfaces.
WARNING: INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE:
SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib::anySimpleType based objects no longer serialize
to their XML value on stringification.
This means that strings are no longer XML-escaped when the simpleType
containing the string is printed or used like this:
my $value = "$simpleType";
Note that ComplexType objects still serialize to their XML on
stringification. This Change is due to the demands of applications
embedding SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib objects in templates - it would mean
a nasty ->get_value for every (simple) value.
The following features were added (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660924):
* [ 1837347 ] Use Class::Std::Fast
Class::Std::Fast allows optimizations which almost double SOAP::WSDL's
performance and reduce code size. Class::Std::Fast also opens the door
for even faster XS implementations.
* [ 1842436 ] Add SOAP Server
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
The numbers with # are CPAN RT IDs (http://rt.cpan.org/).
* [ 1842418 ] Message parser eats up whitespaces between entities
* [ 1839820 ] encoding parameter of Content-Type header set incorrectly
* [ 1839851 ] token in UPPERCASE in default typemap
* [ 1839690 ] Can't use two prefixes for namespace in WSDL
* [ 1839833 ] incorrect encoding/decoding of double-quote
The following uncategorized improvements have been made:
* Errors in typemap generation have been fixed
* XML parser speedups
* The test suite has been improved

2.00_17
----
The following features were added (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660924):
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
* [ 1772617 ] SOAP Header not working
Added header support. Currently, SOAP headers are only supported with
the SOM or the XSD (SOAP11) serializer.
* [ 1805238 ] Tests in t/SOAP/WSDL don't work when run from t/
* [ 1805241 ] explain() broken in SOAP::WSDL
explain has been removed from SOAP::WSDL
The following uncategorized improvements have been made:
* Added limited support for complexType complexContent content model with
restriction variety.
SOAP::WSDL now supports this XML Schema definition variant, although no
constraints are imposed on derived types yet.
Derived types do not serialize with a xsi:type attribute (and the xsi:type
attribute is not recognized by the XML parser), so you cannot use derived
types as a substitute for theri parent, yet.
* Added support for complexType choice variety
complexType definitions using the choice variety are now supported,
even though the content is not checked (if you pass in invalid data,
invalid XML will be generated).
* Added Loopback Transport backend.
SOAP::WSDL::Tranport::Loopback just returns the request as respons, but
allows testing the whole chain from user interface to transport backend.
* Fixed SOAP::WSDL::Factory::Transport prefer user-registered
transport backend
* Fixed set_soap_version method in SOAP::WSDL::Client.
Re-setting the SOAP version now invalidates (resets) serializer and
deserializer, but not the transport backend.
* Fixed SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib::Builtin::boolean to return false
when false and true when true.
* SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib::Builtin::normalizedString now replaces all
occurences of tab, newline and carriage return by whitespce on set_value.
* Code cleanup
o Lots of orphan methods now replaced by the SOAP::WSDL::Generator
hierarchy have been removed.
o Unused (and unusable) readable option checking has been removed in
SOAP::WSDL::Serializer::SOAP11.
o Unused XML Schema facet attributes have been removed from XSD Builtin
classes
o Methods common to all expat parser classes have been factored out
into a common base class.
* XML serialization speedup for SOAP::WSDL::XSD::* objects
* Tests added to improve test coverage.
* A few documentation errors have been fixed
* Misspelled default Typemap and Interface prefixes have been corrected
2.00_16
----
The following features were added (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660924):
* [ 1761532 ] Support embedded atomic types
SOAP::WSDL now supports a greater variety of XML Schema type definitions.
Note that XML Schema support is still incomplete, though.
* [ 1797943 ] Create Perl Hash Deserializer
There's a new deserializer which outputs perl hashes as data structures.
Much like XML::Simple, but faster. No XML Attribute support, though.
* [ 1797678 ] Move Code generator from WSDL::Definitions to separate class
* [ 1803330 ] Create one interface per port
SOAP::WSDL now creates one interface per port, not one per service.
The following bugs have been fixed (the numbers in square brackets are the
tracker IDs from https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111978&atid=660921):
* [ 1804441 ] parts from binding not regarded in SOAP::WSDL
SOAP::WSDL (interpreter mode) now respects the body parts specified in the
binding.
* [ 1803763 ] nonNegativeInteger misspelled in Schema::Builtin
* [ 1793965 ] _expand() does not work on non-root-node ns declarations
* [ 1792348 ] 006_client.t requires SOAP::Lite in 2.00_15
SOAP::WSDL no longer attempts to load SOAP::WSDL::Deserializer::SOM when
no_dispatch is set.
006_client.t now sets outputxml(1), to be really sure.
The following uncategorized improvements have been made:
* Code generator only generates interface for the first port in a service
The code generator now generates interfaces for all ports.
Note: The naming scheme has changed. It is now
InterfacePrefix::Service::Port
* XML Parser speedup
The XML parser has received a little speedup.
* A number of errors in parsing / traversing WSDL documents have been
corrected.
* Documentation has been improved
* A number of (incorrect, but passing) tests have been fixed.
* Code cleanup: The SOAP::WSDL::SAX* modules are no longer included, as they
are not supported any more. They can still be found in SOAP::WSDL's
subversion repository in the attic directory, though.

of SOAP::Deserializer from SOAP::Lite
* Factories now emit more useful error messages when no class is registered
for the protocol/soap_version requested
