Re: sending more then one packet

What do you mean by "packet"?  Do you literally mean that the request must be 
sent in exactly 2 TCP/IP packets?  That is a truly bizarre requirement that 
sounds like poor coding on the server.  I think this would be a challenging 
requirement for most SOAP client implementations.

Here is my suggestion for modifying NuSOAP's soap_transport_http class to work 
with this server.

1. In buildPayload, comment out the last line

   $this->outgoing_payload .= $data;

   This will mean the $this->outgoing_payload will only have the HTTP headers.

2. In sendRequest, you will see the following code

   if(!fputs($this->fp, $this->outgoing_payload, 
strlen($this->outgoing_payload))) {
     $this->setError('couldn\'t write message data to socket');
     $this->debug('couldn\'t write message data to socket');
     return false;
   }
   $this->debug('wrote data to socket, length = ' . 
strlen($this->outgoing_payload));

   After that, add the following

   fflush($this->fp);
   if(!fputs($this->fp, $data, strlen($data))) {
     $this->setError('couldn\'t write message data to socket');
     $this->debug('couldn\'t write message data to socket');
     return false;
   }
   $this->debug('wrote data to socket, length = ' . strlen($data));

This will make NuSOAP write the data to the socket in 2 separate writes.  The 
underlying TCP/IP implementation is free to coalesce these 2 writes into a 
single packet, but most of the time with most implementations, it will be sent 
as two packets.

Subject: [Nusoap-general] sending more then one packet


hello,

im sending my SOAP request all in one packet, however the SOAP server needs
it to be in two packets. one for the header, ie. POST /4DSOAP/ 
HTTP/1.0User-Agent: NuSOAP/0.6.7 (1.75)Host: Content-Type: text/xml; 
charset=ISO-8859-1Content-Length: 538

and another packet  for the <SOAP -ENV code...

anyone know how or have to split this into two packets to get a result back
using nusoap ?

thanks for any help

Ryan
