NAME

6       SOAP::Deserializer - the means by which the toolkit manages the
7       conversion of XML into an object manageable by a developer
8

DESCRIPTION

10       SOAP::Deserializer provides the means by which incoming XML is decoded
11       into a Perl data structure.
12

METHODS

14       context
15           This provides access to the calling context of
16           "SOAP::Deserializer". In a client side context the often means a
17           reference to an instance of SOAP::Lite. In a server side context
18           this means a reference to a SOAP::Server instance.

EXAMPLES

21   DESERIALIZING RAW XML INTO A SOAP::SOM OBJECT
22       A useful utility for SOAP::Deserializer is for parsing raw XML
23       documents or fragments into a SOAP::SOM object. SOAP::Lite developers
24       use this technique to write unit tests for the SOAP::Lite module
25       itself. It is a lot more efficient for testing aspects of the toolkit
26       than generating client calls over the network. This is a perfect way
27       for developers to write unit tests for their custom data types for
28       example.

30       Here is an example of how raw XML content can be parsed into a
31       SOAP::SOM object by using SOAP::Deserializer:
32
33           $xml = <<END_XML;
34           <foo>
35             <person>
36               <foo>123</foo>
37               <foo>456</foo>
38             </person>
39             <person>
40               <foo>789</foo>
41               <foo>012</foo>
42             </person>
43           </foo>
44           END_XML
45
46           my $som = SOAP::Deserializer->deserialize($xml);
