I know that there are issues with WSDL support in SOAP::Lite; I have spent much time previously working with or around the issues with WSDL support in SOAP::Lite; I have cursed and moaned about WSDL support in Perl previously ... Yet when I want to test a new component of the web service under development, I still start typing perl -MSOAP::Lite -le 'print SOAP::Lite->service("http://... only to be bitten by WSDL support bugs once more ...
I really can be a moron sometimes.
On WSDL and SOAP::LIte

We were/are using it to do Python/Perl interop - I sent a couple pf bug fixes to Paul, but I don't know if he got them.
The fixes allow you to use relative paths to WSDL (yes, you can use WSDL without having to run a webserver too,
and relative includes work too!) and to parse the way Python ZSI returns an array of items with the same name (normally, SOAP::Lite says, "hmm, dunno what this is - gotta be a hash", and proceeds to dump all but one of the items of the same name on the floor. The fix processes stuff like this as anonymous lists instead).
Haven't figured out just how I could release this; the ZSI stuff is a custom deserializer, so I guess I could release that separately, but the WSDL fix is actual patches to SOAP::Lite itself. Any ideas?

Having run into hassles with WSDL support previously, I wouldn't mind taking a look at those patches if I could (rob.casey@bluebottle.com).
