-Summary: Cannot create SOAP header in no namespace

New Comment:

Here is the line from the XML NS spec:

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/

Section 2

[Definition:] If the attribute name matches PrefixedAttName, then the
NCName gives the namespace prefix, used to associate element and
attribute names with the namespace name in the attribute value in the
scope of the element to which the declaration is attached. In such
declarations, the namespace name may not be empty.

Thanks. Using "https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v2" does work.

I talked with the people at Google, and I guess some SOAP toolkits are
not sophisticated enough to produce SOAP headers inside a specific
namespace, which is why the other option is available.

However, I still think it's a bug that you can do this:

new SOAPHeader(null, 'foo', 'bar');

As you end up putting element "foo" in an empty namespace. I believe
that is illegal XML. (xmllint issues a warning if this happens.)

SOAP specification doesn't allow non-namespace-qualified headers.

I am not sure, but I think you sould use
"https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v2" as namespace for these SOAP
headers.

Description:
------------
You cannot create a SOAP header that is in no namespace. (This
is required by the new Google Adwords SOAP API, see https://
adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v2/TrafficEstimatorService?
wsdl.)

Furthermore, the SOAPHeader class allows you to create headers
in an empty namespace, by passing in null or "" for the
namespace URI. This is illegal. (Unless defined as the default
namespace.)

The extension should be changed to place these elements in no
namespace instead.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$client=new SOAPClient(null, array('location' => 'http://localhost',
'uri' => 'myNS', 'exceptions' => false, 'trace' => true));

$header = new SOAPHeader(null, 'foo', 'bar');

$response= $client->__call('function', array(), null, $header);

print $client->__getLastRequest();

Expected result:
----------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/
soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns1="myNS" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/
2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-
instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/
encoding/" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/
soap/encoding/"><SOAP-ENV:Header><foo>bar<foo></SOAP-
ENV:Header><SOAP-ENV:Body><ns1:function/></SOAP-ENV:Body></
SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Actual result:
--------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/
soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns1="myNS" xmlns:ns2=""
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/
encoding/"><SOAP-ENV:Header><ns2:foo>bar</ns2:foo></SOAP-
ENV:Header><SOAP-ENV:Body><ns1:function/></SOAP-ENV:Body></
SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
