Outdated: Get_Temperature.php - First Example of SOAP
This section provides a tutorial example on how to use the SOAP extension to call a Web service provided by xmethods.org to get the current temperature.
To show you an example of how PHP SOAP extension can be used in a SOAP client application, here is my first SOAP PHP script, Get_Temperature.php
<?php # Get_Temperature.php #- Copyright (c) HerongYang.com. All Rights Reserved. # $client = new SoapClient ("http://www.xmethods.net/sd/2001/DemoTemperatureService.wsdl"); echo("\nReturning value of getTemp() call: ". $client->getTemp("12345")); ?>
Run it while your computer is connected to the Internet. You will get:
>php Get_Temperature.php Returning value of getTemp() call: 52
