I'm using the gSoap library for my Qt C++ application to interact with some basic web service.
Is there a way to extract the full SOAP request/(response) message that is about to be sent/(was received) from soap object as XML string? (for educational purposes)
I know that there is buf member but data there would require some filtering and it looks incomplete.
Thanks in advance.
I needed to use this plugin because I wanted to log the xml messages in our logfile. This plugin shows how to redirect the fsend() and frecv() functions, which send and receive the xml message.
static int plugin_send(struct soap *soap, const char *buf, size_t len)
{
struct plugin_data *data = (struct plugin_data*)soap_lookup_plugin(soap, plugin_id);
fwrite(buf, len, 1, stderr); //<-- pick up the xml from here!
return data->fsend(soap, buf, len); /* pass data on to old send callback */
}
static size_t plugin_recv(struct soap *soap, char *buf, size_t len)
{
struct plugin_data *data = (struct plugin_data*)soap_lookup_plugin(soap, plugin_id);
size_t res = data->frecv(soap, buf, len); /* get data from old recv callback */
fwrite(buf, res, 1, stderr); //<-- pick up the xml from here!
return res;
}
There is section on plugin in the gSOAP User Guide:
