SoapServer ISO-8859-1 encoding doesn't seem to work

[Bruce Bailey]

Hi

I'm using php 5.2.3 (also tested on php 5.2.9).  For some reason, even though I am setting the reply encoding:

ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0"); // disable WSDL caching

$server = new SoapServer("test.wsdl", array('encoding'=>'ISO-8859-1'));
$server->setClass("ManualService");
$server->handle();

The reply from the server is:

Date: Wed, 27 May 2009 15:30:08 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.37 (Unix) mod_gzip/1.3.26.1a PHP/5.2.9
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.9
Content-Length: 1058
Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=100
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope   xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
                     xmlns:ns1="http://www.test.com/test/"
                     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

  <SOAP-ENV:Body>
    <ns1:SyUserGetResponse>
      <UserGetResponse>

         -- trimmed and formatted for readability --

      </UserGetResponse>
    </ns1:SyUserGetResponse>
  </SOAP-ENV:Body>

</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Bruce

The documentation says "... internal character encoding (encoding), ...".

This suggests that this is NOT the encoding used externally.

What happens to data which is NOT ISO-8859-1?

Does it go through cleanly?

Is there a reason why you are not using UTF-8?

Richard

Thanks for the reply.  The primary reason I'd like to use ISO-8859-1 is to save the overhead of scanning and replacing ASCII characters (in the range of 128-255, 0x080-0x0ff) that is required in UTF-8 encoding.

Since there is some percent of my data that will contain these characters, my thought is that performance would be a bit better and my code a bit simpler.

More than anything else, this is for convenience.
