PHP SoapClient creating XML references for identical elements, makes it unacceptable for service

Question

I am working on a SOAP client in PHP, and the calls are going through to the service fine, with the exception of calls where there are elements that are identical to each ot

Answer 1

In your PHP code make a property with unique index so the resulting XML will look like:

  name1
  value1
  0


  name1
  value1
  1

Then PHP SoapClient will not make href references to the same copies of data and web service successfully ignored these unique fields in my case. No, I do not pass the same fields of someelement as reference in PHP code. They are cloned, however PHP SoapClient is smart enough to zip their multiple occurencies as references, unfortunately.
