If you are using a WSDL, the library will strip out anything from your parameters that is not defined in WSDL, without giving you any notice about this.
So if your parameters are not fully matching the WSDL, it will simply send no parameters at all.
This can be a bit hard to debug if you don't have access to the target server.
__soapCall() expects parameters in an array called 'parameters' as opposed to calling the function via it's WSDL name, where it accepts the parameters as a plain array.
I.e. if a function called sendOrder expects a parameter (array) called orderDetails, you can call it like this:
$orderDetails = array(/* your data */);
$soap->sendOrder(array('orderDetails' => $orderDetails));
Which is equivalent to:
$client->__soapCall('sendOrder', array('parameters' => array('orderDetails' => $orderDetails)));
Note the additional 'parameters' key used in __soapCall().
SoapClient::__call
(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
SoapClient::__call — Ruft eine SOAP-Funktion auf (veraltet)
Beschreibung
Der Aufruf dieser Methode wird missbilligt. Normalerweise können SOAP-Funktionen als Methoden des SoapClient-Objekts aufgerufen werden; in Situationen wo das nicht möglich ist, oder zusätzliche Optionen benötigt werden, ist SoapClient::__soapCall() zu verwenden.
Parameter-Liste
-
name -
Der Name der aufzurufenden SOAP-Funktion.
-
args -
Ein Array mit den Parametern, die an die Funktion übergeben werden sollen. Dies kann entweder ein geordnetes oder ein assoziatives Array sein. Zu beachten ist, dass die meisten SOAP-Server die Angabe von Parameternamen verlangen, weshalb es in diesem Fall ein assoziatives Array sein muss.
Rückgabewerte
SOAP-Funktionen können einen oder mehrere Werte zurückgeben. Wenn von einer SOAP-Funktion nur ein Wert zurückgegeben wird, ist der Rückgabewert ein Skalar. Wenn mehrere Werte zurückgegeben werden, wird stattdessen ein assoziatives Array von benannten Ausgabeparameter zurückgegeben.
Wenn das SoapClient-Objekt mit der auf false
gesetzten Option exceptions erstellt wurde, wird bei
einem Fehler ein SoapFault-Objekt zurückgegeben.

extend of __call thats adds a retry to handle the occasional 'Could not connect to host' exceptions
<?php
class LocalSoapClient extends SoapClient
{
public function __call($function_name, $arguments)
{
$result = false;
$max_retries = 5;
$retry_count = 0;
while(! $result && $retry_count < $max_retries)
{
try
{
$result = parent::__call($function_name, $arguments);
}
catch(SoapFault $fault)
{
if($fault->faultstring != 'Could not connect to host')
{
throw $fault;
}
}
sleep(1);
$retry_count ++;
}
if($retry_count == $max_retries)
{
throw new SoapFault('Could not connect to host after 5 attempts');
}
return $result;
}
}
?>

I'm writing PHP SOAP client (based on php_soap extension) which uses Google AdService,
today, I tried to create sample Ad using AdService::addAds() and discovered that my SOAP library does not pass
"headline", "description1", "description2" parameters in SOAP request.
First, I thought that this was something wrong with my data, coz I was getting validation errors like
"One or more input elements failed validation." Then I decided to take a look at WSDL description
https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v11/AdService?wsdl
And voilà ! I've found this:
<complexType name="Ad" abstract="true">
<sequence>
<element name="adGroupId" type="xsd:int"/>
<element name="adType" nillable="true" minOccurs="0" type="impl:AdType"/>
<element name="destinationUrl" nillable="true" minOccurs="0" type="xsd:string"/>
<element name="disapproved" type="xsd:boolean"/>
<element name="displayUrl" nillable="true" minOccurs="0" type="xsd:string"/>
<element name="exemptionRequest" nillable="true" minOccurs="0" type="xsd:string"/>
<element name="id" type="xsd:long"/>
<element name="status" nillable="true" minOccurs="0" type="impl:AdStatus"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
There is no any ''description", "headline1", "headline2", however there is another complexType
<complexType name="TextAd">
<complexContent>
<extension base="impl:Ad">
<sequence>
<element name="description1" nillable="true" type="xsd:string"/>
<element name="description2" nillable="true" type="xsd:string"/>
<element name="headline" nillable="true" type="xsd:string"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
So, the thing is when you are working with php_soap be aware of complexType extensions which does not work in php_soap when you try to do things like:
<?php
$client = new
SoapClient(
"https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v11/AdService?wsdl",
array( 'trace' => true,
'exceptions' => true,
)
);
$entropy = substr(md5(rand(0, time())), 0, 10);
//create Ad test structure
$sample_ad = array(
"id" => 0,
"adGroupId" => 0,
"adType" => 'TextAd',
"disapproved" => false,
"destinationUrl" => 'http://test.com',
"displayUrl" => 'www.Test.com',
"status" => "Paused", // Enabled / Disabled
"descr_iption1" => 'D1_'.$entropy,
"des_cription2" => 'D2_'.$entropy,
"head_line" => 'H_'.$entropy
);
$client->addAds(array('ads' => array($sample_ad) );
?>

Hi,
This is a good example, for the SOAP function "__call".
However it is deprecated.
<?php
$wsdl = "http://webservices.tekever.eu/ctt/?wsdl";
$int_zona = 5;
$int_peso = 1001;
$cliente = new SoapClient($wsdl);
print "<p>Envio Internacional: ";
$vem = $cliente->__call('CustoEMSInternacional',array($int_zona, $int_peso));
print $vem;
print "</p>";
?>
