Detailed Description

class provising SOAP API access to Salesforce.com

This class inherits SoapClient to perform SOAP communication with Salesforce.com.

Note
By default this class does not log out of Salesforce.com in the destructor in order to keep the API session alive. To force a logout of the session in the destructor, use the force_logout option in the constructor().

◆ callIntern()

any SalesforceSoapClient::SalesforceSoapClient::callIntern ( string  operation,
any  args,
*hash  opts,
*reference  info 
)
private

makes the internal call and returns the deserialized response

Parameters
operationthe SOAP operation to use to serialize the request; if the operation is not known to the underlying WebService class, an exception will be thrown
argsthe arguments to the SOAP operation
optsan optional hash of options for the call as follows:
  • soap_header: a hash giving SOAP header information, if required by the message
  • http_header: a hash giving HTTP header information to include in the message (does not override automatically-generated SOAP message headers)
  • xml_opts: an integer XML generation option code; see XML Generation Constants for possible values; combine multiple codes with binary or (|)
  • soapaction: an optional string that will override the SOAPAction for the request; en empty string here will prevent the SOAPAction from being sent
infoan optional reference to return a hash of technical information about the SOAP call (raw message info and headers); the following keys are present in this hash:
  • "headers": a hash of HTTP request headers
  • "request-uri": the request URI string (ex: "POST /services/Soap/c/29.0 HTTP/1.1")
