The problem with the PHP WebService Client

We've a JAVA WebService Server which could have attached documents. When the PHP Client send the dates, the Server take it correctly, but when
the server return it to the PHP Client, the client reply always that is not a XML valid document.

The problem could be than the JAVA Server adds (to this type of XML binary files)  the documentType head: xml+xop and the clean doesn't understand
this head as a XML document.

There is some possibility to solve this problem in the PHP Client without doing changes in the JAVA Server?

SoapFault exception: [SOAP-ENV:Client] looks like we got no XML document

This error can have to reasons:
1: Your server script has some hidden output like spaces before or afher <?php ... ?> or echoing some text
2: You have a bug in your server script;
    resulting in a error message output

Test your server script by calling it direct  from the browser.
The result should be a clean output like :

−<SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
−<SOAP-ENV:Body>
−<SOAP-ENV:Fault>
  <faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Server</faultcode>
  <faultstring>Bad Request. Can't find HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA</faultstring>
</SOAP-ENV:Fault>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

This tell's you there was a request but without data; This is OK
Now if you get the error when calling with your soap client;
remember that your server now will call other functions in the server.php script because it now has some data to process

PROBLEM (with SOAP extension under PHP5) of transferring object, that contains objects or array of objects. Nested object would not transfer.

SOLUTION:
This class was developed by trial and error by me. So this 23 lines of code for most developers writing under PHP5 solves fate of using SOAP extension.

<?php
/*
According to specific of organization process of SOAP class in PHP5, we must wrap up complex objects in SoapVar class. Otherwise objects would not be encoded properly and could not be loaded on remote SOAP handler.

Function "getAsSoap" call for encoding object for transmission. After encoding it can be properly transmitted.
*/
abstract class SOAPable {
    public function
getAsSOAP() {
        foreach(
$this as $key=>&$value) {
           
$this->prepareSOAPrecursive($this->$key);
        }
        return
$this;
    }

    private function
prepareSOAPrecursive(&$element) {
        if(
is_array($element)) {
            foreach(
$element as $key=>&$val) {
               
$this->prepareSOAPrecursive($val);
            }
           
$element=new SoapVar($element,SOAP_ENC_ARRAY);
        }elseif(
is_object($element)) {
            if(
$element instanceof SOAPable) {
               
$element->getAsSOAP();
            }
           
$element=new SoapVar($element,SOAP_ENC_OBJECT);
        }
    }
}

// ------------------------------------------
//  ABSTRACT EXAMPLE
// ------------------------------------------

class PersonList extends SOAPable {
  protected
$ArrayOfPerson; // variable MUST be protected or public!
}

class
Person extends SOAPable {
  
//any data
}

$client=new SoapClient("test.wsdl", array( 'soap_version'=>SOAP_1_2, 'trace'=>1, 'classmap' => array('Person' => "Person", 'PersonList' => "PersonList")  ));

$PersonList=new PersonList;

// some actions

$PersonList->getAsSOAP();

$client->someMethod($PersonList);

?>

So every class, which will transfer via SOAP, must be extends from class SOAPable. 
As you can see, in code above, function prepareSOAPrecursive search another nested objects in parent object or in arrays, and if does it, tries call function getAsSOAP() for preparation of nested objects, after that simply wrap up via SoapVar class.

So in code before transmitting simply call $obj->getAsSOAP()
