[RESOLVED] WSDL issue

http://www.champions.co.nz/global/Af...ices.asmx?WSDL

I'm trying to access this webservice, I have this code to try see the catalogue list, it outputs the below.

I've got another .net script which works so I know the codes i'm using are correct, what is wrong?

stdClass Object ( [Catalogue_ListResult] => stdClass Object ( [any] => ) )

<?php
$client = new SoapClient("http://www.champions.co.nz/global/AffiliateServices.asmx?WSDL");

$result = $client->Catalogue_List(array('ID' => 99, 'Guid' => "MyCode", 'Satellite' => 1));

print_r($result);

?>

According to the WSDL document, the "Catalogue_List" operation utilizes three input parameters (two of which are required - the first and the last): AffiliateID, AffiliateGuid, and Satellite. You've only provided one of those three.

sorry Guid is AffiliateGuid and ID is AffiliateID, I've already updated my code and tested it. It still does not work.

[NZ_Kiwis]

when I do a var_dump I get this, does it need to output it differently to use this information?

object(stdClass)[2]
  public 'Catalogue_ListResult' => 
    object(stdClass)[3]
      public 'any' => string '<Affiliate_Catalogue_List xmlns="" SatelliteID="1" SatelliteName="Champions Of The World"><Catalogues><Catalogue CatalogueID="10" Name="All Blacks" Order="10" ParentID="0" Url="http://www.champions.co.nz/rd.ashx?iSAMS=A&amp;afID=79&amp;C=10"><Catalogue CatalogueID="125" Name="New Releases" Order="1" ParentID="10" Url="http://www.champions.co.nz/rd.ashx?iSAMS=A&amp;afID=79&amp;C=125"/><Catalogue CatalogueID="235" Name="2012 All Blacks Range" Order="1" ParentID="10" Url="http://www.champions.co.nz/rd.ashx?iSA'...

__getFunctions and __getTypes tells you what the methods return and their types. In this case, there is a chunk of XML in there that appears to have some information in it; have you tried parsing it?

[NZ_Kiwis]

Those functions give me this output, i'm at a loss with what to do with this?...

array
  0 => string 'Product_ListResponse Product_List(Product_List $parameters)' (length=59)
  1 => string 'Satellite_Currency_ListResponse Satellite_Currency_List(Satellite_Currency_List $parameters)' (length=92)
  2 => string 'Catalogue_ListResponse Catalogue_List(Catalogue_List $parameters)' (length=65)
  3 => string 'Product_ListResponse Product_List(Product_List $parameters)' (length=59)
  4 => string 'Satellite_Currency_ListResponse Satellite_Currency_List(Satellite_Currency_List $parameters)' (length=92)
  5 => string 'Catalogue_ListResponse Catalogue_List(Catalogue_List $parameters)' (length=65)
array

}' (length=127)

 Product_ListResult Product_ListResult;

  2 => string 'struct Product_ListResult {

  3 => string 'struct Satellite_Currency_List {

}' (length=55)
  6 => string 'struct Catalogue_List {

  8 => string 'struct Catalogue_ListResult {

Read them and determine what types of data are returned by the functions (which requires a bit of logical thinking on your part). For example:

Catalogue_ListResponse Catalogue_List(Catalogue_List $parameters)

tells you that the "Catalogue_List" method returns a "Catalogue_ListResponse". What's a "Catalogue_ListResponse"?

struct Catalogue_ListResponse {
 Catalogue_ListResult Catalogue_ListResult;
}

It's an object with a "Catalogue_ListResult" property that is of type "Catalogue_ListResult". But what's a "Catalogue_ListResult"?

struct Catalogue_ListResult {
 <anyXML> any;
}

It's an object that has an "any" property containing XML.

In this case, there is a chunk of XML in there that appears to have some information in it; have you tried parsing it?

[NZ_Kiwis]

Right okay so how do I access the XML data within $result?

$result = $client->Catalogue_List(array('AffiliateID' => 99, 'AffiliateGuid' => "$Code", 'Satellite' => 1)); 

I thought this might access it but i does not.

foreach($result->Catalogue_ListResult[0]->attributes() as $a => $b) {
    echo $a,'="',$b,"\"\n";
} 

I know know that somewhere within $result is a XML file, I just don't get how i'm to access it to parse it

[NZ_Kiwis]

print_r($result->Catalogue_ListResult); 

this prints

stdClass Object ( [any] => )

[Weedpacket]

 print_r($result->Catalogue_ListResult); 

See your second post in this thread.

stdClass Object ( [any] => )

So it's a one of the properties in this object. Which is it, I wonder?

It's an object that has an "any" property containing XML.

See your second post for information about what type of value is stored in the property (hint: you will need an XML parser to parse the XML).

[NZ_Kiwis]

okay I have this code, am I getting closer?

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($result->Catalogue_ListResult->any);
print_r($xml);

echo "<hr>";

foreach($xml->Catalogues->Catalogue as $cat){
    echo $cat["Name"] ."<br>";
} 

It echo's the first 9 rows, there is more though? what is wrong?
