+<p>For a complex soap object, the properties of the object are specified with
+<tt>@soapproperty</tt> keyword in the property phpdocs. Furthermore, the
+propert's type name must be specified as <tt>@var type $name</tt> where <tt>type
+</tt> is any valid type in mentioned earlier.
+An array of complex objects can also be returned by adding a pair of
+enclosing square brackets after the type name. For example, to return an
+array of <tt>Contact</tt> type, we define <tt>@return Contact[] ...</tt>.

+A very useful tool to test out your web services is the free tool

The user can provide a WSDL endpoint. On clicking button Get the tool fetches the WSDL, generates .NET proxy from the WSDL and displays the list of methods available. The user can choose any method and provide the required input parameters.
+The tool requires a MS .NET runtime to be installed.

<p>
<tt>TSoapService</tt> may be configured and customized in several ways. In the example above, the <soap> element actually specifies a SOAP service using the default <tt>TSoapServer</tt> implementation. Attributes in <soap> are passed to <tt>TSoapServer</tt> as its initial property values. For example, the <tt>provider</tt> attribute initializes the <tt>Provider</tt> property of <tt>TSoapServer</tt>. By setting <tt>SessionPersistent</tt> to be true in <soap> element, the provider instance will persist within the user session. You may develop your own SOAP server class and use it by specifying the <tt>class</tt> attribute of <soap>.
