Every SOAP package in YAZ is represented as follows:
</p><pre class="synopsis">
#include <yaz/soap.h>
typedef struct {
char *fault_code;
char *fault_string;
char *details;
} Z_SOAP_Fault;
typedef struct {
int no;
char *ns;
void *p;
} Z_SOAP_Generic;
#define Z_SOAP_fault 1
#define Z_SOAP_generic 2
#define Z_SOAP_error 3
typedef struct {
int which;
union {
Z_SOAP_Fault *fault;
Z_SOAP_Generic *generic;
Z_SOAP_Fault *soap_error;
} u;
const char *ns;
} Z_SOAP;
</pre><p>
</p><p>
The <code class="literal">fault</code> and <code class="literal">soap_error</code>
arms represent both a SOAP fault - struct
<code class="literal">Z_SOAP_Fault</code>. Any other generic
(valid) package is represented by <code class="literal">Z_SOAP_Generic</code>.
</p><p>
The <code class="literal">ns</code> as part of <code class="literal">Z_SOAP</code>
is the namespace for SOAP itself and reflects the SOAP
version. For version 1.1 it is
<code class="literal">http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/</code>,
for version 1.2 it is
<code class="literal">http://www.w3.org/2001/06/soap-envelope</code>.
</p><pre class="synopsis">
int z_soap_codec(ODR o, Z_SOAP **pp,
char **content_buf, int *content_len,
Z_SOAP_Handler *handlers);
</pre><p>
The <code class="literal">content_buf</code> and <code class="literal">content_len</code>
is XML buffer and length of buffer respectively.
</p><p>
The <code class="literal">handlers</code> is a list of SOAP codec
handlers - one handler for each service namespace. For SRU SOAP, the
namespace would be <code class="literal">http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/v1.0/</code>.
</p><p>
When decoding, the <code class="function">z_soap_codec</code>
inspects the XML content
and tries to match one of the services namespaces of the
supplied handlers. If there is a match a handler function
is invoked which decodes that particular SOAP package.
If successful, the returned <code class="literal">Z_SOAP</code> package will be
of type <code class="literal">Z_SOAP_Generic</code>.
Member <code class="literal">no</code> is
set the offset of handler that matched; <code class="literal">ns</code>
is set to namespace of matching handler; the void pointer
<code class="literal">p</code> is set to the C data structure assocatiated
with the handler.
</p><p>
When a NULL namespace is met (member <code class="literal">ns</code> bwlow),
that specifies end-of-list.
</p><p>
Each handler is defined as follows:
</p><pre class="synopsis">
typedef struct {
char *ns;
void *client_data;
Z_SOAP_fun f;
} Z_SOAP_Handler;
</pre><p>
The <code class="literal">ns</code> is namespace of service associated with
handler <code class="literal">f</code>. <code class="literal">client_data</code>
is user-defined data which is passed to handler.
</p><p>
The prototype for a SOAP service handler is:
</p><pre class="synopsis">
int handler(ODR o, void * ptr, void **handler_data,
void *client_data, const char *ns);
</pre><p>
The <em class="parameter"><code>o</code></em> specifies the mode (decode/encode)
as usual. The second argument, <em class="parameter"><code>ptr</code></em>,
is a libxml2 tree node pointer (<code class="literal">xmlNodePtr</code>)
and is a pointer to the <code class="literal">Body</code> element
of the SOAP package. The <em class="parameter"><code>handler_data</code></em>
is an opaque pointer to a C definitions associated with the
SOAP service. <em class="parameter"><code>client_data</code></em> is the pointer
which was set as part of the <code class="literal">Z_SOAP_handler</code>.
Finally, <em class="parameter"><code>ns</code></em> the service namespace.
