Hi everyone,
We've just commited a stable revision of the pog source code to the SVN
repository. The code now includes one of the new features of 2.0: SOAP
webservice that allows code generation without going through POG's
interface.
The soap webservice is now also used internally. That is, even when
users use the POG interface, POG creates a Soap client and connects to
itself to generate objects. This is so that there's only one code to
maintain.
A "preview" can also be found on the beta subdomain. In a few days,
we'll post an article on the blog, with instructions/examples on how to
generate objects using the soap webservice, and list some example uses.
the WSDL for the POG webservice can be accessed for now at
http://beta.phpobjectgenerator.com/services/soap.php?wsdl
There are 5 SOAP functions:
1. GetGeneratorVersion
2. GenerateObject
3. GenerateObjectFromLink (@link)
4. GenerateConfiguration
5. GeneratePOGPackage
In addition to providing the source through open source, we do not plan
to adopt a membership/account system for end users to access the pog
webservice. I.e no need to register an account/etc. There is also no
plan to limit the number of requests per user / per month..etc.
To keep things brief, the soap functions are very promising since they
will ease the development of other small applications built on top of
POG..., the first of which being
WebFormFactory(http://groups.google.com/group/Php-Object-Generator/browse_thread/thr...)
which should have a preview release soon as well.
If you have any comments, feedback etc. feel free to post below.
