php and webservices

Question

I am new to php so please bare with me. I have a wsdl file and i am trying to call it from a php class. I am using the following code:

<?php

include ("dbconn.php");

class dataclass {

function getCountries()
{
 $connection = new dbconn();

 $sql = "SELECT * FROM tblcountries";

 $dataset = $connection -> connectSql($sql);

 return $dataset;
}

function getTest()
{
 $connection = new dbconn();

 $sql = mysql_query('CALL sp_getTest');

 $dataset =  $connection -> connectSql($sql);

 return $dataset;
}


##-------------------------------------------CUSTOMER METHODS-------------------------------------------
function registerCustomer($username,$name,$surname,$password,$email,$country,$tel)
{
 $connection = new dbconn();

 $sql="INSERT INTO tblcustomer (customer_username, customer_password, customer_name, customer_surname,
  customer_email, customer_country, customer_tel) 
  VALUES('$username','$name','$surname','$password','$email','$country','$tel')";

 $dataset = $connection -> connectSql($sql);

}



ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0");
// start the SOAP server - point to the wsdl file
$webservice = new SoapServer("http://localhost/dataobjects/myWebservice.wsdl", array('soap_version' => SOAP_1_2));

// publish methods
$webservice->addFunction("getCountries");
$webservice->addFunction("registerCustomer");
// publish
$webservice->handle();

} ?>

It is all the time giving me a problem with ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0");

The error is:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_FUNCTION in C:\Program Files\xampplite\htdocs\dataobjects\dataClass.php on line 47

Answer 1

You let the parser think "0" is a string, and not a number, please remove the quotes!

Edit 1 If that wouldn't work, your error must be before that line, please post the full code for review.

Edit 2 The code you provided was running inside the class, you miss a bracket before the line with ini_set.

Answer 2

I believe it is because you have ini_set() call in the body of your class. Put it at the top of the file or in the constructor if you have one.

class dataClass
{
    function registerCustomer()
    {
       // some stuff
    }

    ini_set(/*args*/); // it's illegal to put instructions in the body of the class
}

Now I see the whole thing. You probably want to close the class with a closing backet before line 47.

Answer 3

Move the last } in front of ini_set(...)

By the way, you said you want to call a web service, but you are creating a server which may be called by others.

To call a web service, try something like this:

try{
 $client = new SoapClient($service, array('location' =>"http://example.org/myWebService"));
 $parameter1 = new myWebServiceParameter();
 $result = $client->myWebServiceFunction($parameter1);
} catch (Exception $e) {
 // handle errors
}

myWebServiceParameter must be any class with a member variable foreach WSDL message attribute of the same name. And myWebServiceFunction is the name of the web service method.
