Description:
------------
I have a WSDL with three types: "customerId", "customer" and "order".

Calling a function with just a customer works, but a calling a function with parameters (customerId, customer) does not - the customer parameter is always null.

Another function, specified as (customerId, order), always works, so the problem is not using more than one parameter (which could be a problem since I'm using document/literal, and having more than one message part does not conform to WS-I).

I have also tried switching the parameters and lots of other things but I cannot find the underlying problem.

Reproduce code:
---------------
http://jayvee.nl/soaptest.tar

This includes a php file that runs a client as well as a server - so be sure to change the service URL in interface.wsdl before you run this.

Expected result:
----------------
When SoapServer calls function addCustomer ( $p1, $p2 ), $p2 should be a stdClass object (or array)

Actual result:
--------------
$p2 is null

I have been able to further pin down the bug. The 2nd parameter is passed as null if, in the <wsdl:message> definition, the 1st <wsdl:part> element's name attribute is the same as the element attribute!

<wsdl:message name="someRequest">
  <wsdl:part name="customerId" element="tns:customerId"></wsdl:part>
  <wsdl:part name="fail" element="tns:customerId"></wsdl:part>
</wsdl:message>
Here the 1st parameter works, but the second is always null!

<wsdl:message name="someRequest">
  <wsdl:part name="cid" element="tns:customerId"></wsdl:part>
  <wsdl:part name="win" element="tns:customerId"></wsdl:part>
</wsdl:message>
Now both parameters work.


More generally, if one <wsdl:part> is specified in this way (name and element are the same), _every other parameter_ is passed as null:

<wsdl:message name="someRequest">
  <wsdl:part name="p1" element="tns:customerId"></wsdl:part>
  <wsdl:part name="customerId" element="tns:customerId"></wsdl:part>
  <wsdl:part name="p3" element="tns:customerId"></wsdl:part>
</wsdl:message>
Here, p1 and p2 will be null, and customerId will work.

Happy bugfixing! :)

Sorry for posting yet another comment, but it gets even weirder:

<wsdl:message name="someRequest">
  <wsdl:part name="customerId" element="tns:customerId"></wsdl:part>
  <wsdl:part name="customerDetails" element="tns:customer"></wsdl:part>
</wsdl:message>
This will not work, because in the first part, the name==element

However,
<wsdl:message name="someRequest">
  <wsdl:part name="customerId" element="tns:customerId"></wsdl:part>
  <wsdl:part name="customer" element="tns:customer"></wsdl:part>
</wsdl:message>
_will_ work! Notice that now both parts are specified with name==element!


My conclusion so far is that either _all_ of the parts need to be specified with the name==element pattern, or _none_. If one of the parts uses the pattern, the rest needs to conform, or else the SoapServer passes them as null.

I sure hope this helps! I've been struggling with this for a while now.

I see several fixes in soap module. Could you try 5.4?

Still not fixed in PHP 5.4.19-dev
 [2013-08-05 08:02 UTC] jeroen at asystance dot nl 
I just tested 5.5.2-dev as well: fails.

I don't understand why this bug was closed.

I tested in 5.4 and 5.5. What else is needed? Is it because I posted the test results as in the "add comment" tab, instead of the "edit" tab?

Sorry, LastPass butchered the summary in my last update.
