How to convert SOAP response to PHP Array?

Question 1

I am unable to convert SOAP response to Array in php.

here is the code

 $response = $client->__doRequest($xmlRequest,$location,$action,1);

here is the SOAP response.

<soap:envelope xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:body>
<searchflightavailability33response xmlns="http://FpwebBox.Fareportal.com/Gateway.asmx">
<searchflightavailability33result>
    &lt;Fareportal&gt;&lt;FpSearch_AirLowFaresRS&gt;&lt;CntKey&gt;1777f5a7-7824-46ce-a0f8-33d5e6e96816&lt;/CntKey&gt;&lt;Currency CurrencyCode="USD"/&gt;&lt;OriginDestinationOptions&gt;&lt;OutBoundOptions&gt;&lt;OutBoundOption segmentid="9W7008V21Feb14"&gt;&lt;FlightSegment etc....
    </searchflightavailability33result>
</searchflightavailability33response>
</soap:body>
</soap:envelope>;

i used the following ways to convert to Array,but i am getting empty output.

1.echo '<pre>';print_r($client__getLastResponse());
2.echo '<pre>';print_r($response->envelope->body->searchflightavailability33response);
3.echo '<pre>';print_r($client->SearchFlightAvailability33($response));
     4.simplexml_load_string($response,NULL,NULL,"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/");  

5.echo '<pre>';print_r($client->SearchFlightAvailability33($response));

please advice me.

Question 2

finally i found the solution is

we can get body of the response from SOAP the following ways

example1:

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($soapResponse);
foreach($xml->xpath('//soap:body') as $header) {
    $output = $header->registerXPathNamespace('default', 'http://FpwebBox.Fareportal.com/Gateway.asmx');    
}

example2:

$doc = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');
    $doc->loadXML( $soapResponse );
    $XMLresults     = $doc->getElementsByTagName("SearchFlightAvailability33Response");
    $output = $XMLresults->item(0)->nodeValue;

Question 3

$array = explode(' ', $string);

Question 4

Here is the solution. :)

<?php
$url    = 'http://example.com/sampleapi/test.asmx?WSDL';
$client = new SoapClient($url, array("soap_version" => SOAP_1_1,"trace" => 1));

$user_param = array (
  'WebProviderLoginId' => "test",
  'WebProviderPassword' => "test",
  'IsAgent' => false
);

$service_param = array (
  'objSecurity' => $user_param,
  "OutPut" => NULL,
  "ErrorMsg" => NULL
);

print_r(
   $client->__soapCall(
       "Login",
       array($service_param)
   )
);

echo $client->__getLastRequest();

?>

& the request was:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns1="http://tempuri.org/Example/Service1">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
   <ns1:Login>
       <ns1:objSecurity>
           <ns1:WebProviderLoginId>test</ns1:WebProviderLoginId>
           <ns1:WebProviderPassword>test</ns1:WebProviderPassword>
           <ns1:IsAgent>false</ns1:IsAgent>
       </ns1:objSecurity>
   </ns1:Login>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Thanks to this link. PHP SOAP Request not right

Question 5

Upfront remark: In order to use the __getLastRequest() method successfully, you have to set the 'trace' option to true on client construction:

$client = new SoapClient('wsdldoc.asmx?WSDL', array('trace' => TRUE));

This way, your request will still be sent (and therefore still fail), but you can inspect the sent xml afterwards by calling $client->__getLastRequest().

Main answer:

To get access to the generated XML before/without sending the request, you'd need to subclass the SoapClient in order to override the __doRequest() method:

class SoapClientDebug extends SoapClient
{
  public function __doRequest($request, $location, $action, $version, $one_way = 0) {
      // Add code to inspect/dissect/debug/adjust the XML given in $request here

      // Uncomment the following line, if you actually want to do the request
      // return parent::__doRequest($request, $location, $action, $version, $one_way);
  }
}

You'd then use this extended class instead of the original SoapClient while debugging your problem.
