return utf-8 (farsi) string from nuSOAP webservice
i wrote a very simple webservice that you can see it's code below:
SERVER :
<?php
ini_set('error_reporting', E_STRICT);
require_once("nuSOAP/lib/nusoap.php");
$namespace = "http://localhost/webservice/index.php";
// create a new soap server
$server = new soap_server();
$server->soap_defencoding = 'utf-8';
$server->decode_utf8 = false;
// configure our WSDL
$server->configureWSDL("HelloExample");
// set our namespace
$server->wsdl->schemaTargetNamespace = $namespace;
//Register a method that has parameters and return types
$server->register(
// method name:
'HelloWorld',
// parameter list:
array('name'=>'xsd:string'),
// return value(s):
array('return'=>'xsd:string'),
// namespace:
$namespace,
// soapaction: (use default)
false,
// style: rpc or document
'rpc',
// use: encoded or literal
'encoded',
// description: documentation for the method
'Simple Hello World Method');
$POST_DATA = isset($GLOBALS['HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA']) ? $GLOBALS['HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA'] : '';
// pass our posted data (or nothing) to the soap service
$server->service($POST_DATA);
exit();
?>
CLIENT :
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Title</title>
<meta charset="utf-8"/>
</head>
<body>
<?php
require_once("nuSOAP/lib/nusoap.php");
$client = new nusoap_client('http://localhost/webservice/index.php?wsdl');
$client->soap_defencoding = 'UTF-8';
$client->decode_utf8 = true;
$err = $client->getError();
if ($err) {
echo '<h2>Constructor error</h2><pre>' . $err . '</pre>';
die();
}
$parameters = array('name' => "محمد");
$result = $client->call('HelloWorld', $parameters);
if ($client->fault) {
echo '<h2>Fault</h2><pre>';
print_r($result);
echo '</pre>';
die();
}
else
{
echo $result;
}
?>
</body>
</html>
this Should return Hello محمد But this return Hello ????
is this unicode problem?
any help for fixing this will appreciated
Answer
i fixed it myself :)
use this for Server code :
$server->soap_defencoding = 'UTF-8';
$server->decode_utf8 = false;
$server->encode_utf8 = true;
and for Client code :
$client->soap_defencoding = 'UTF-8';
$client->decode_utf8 = false;
