[wsf-c-dev]PHP WSDL Parser using XSLT

[Buddhika Semasinghe]

Hi;

As we have understood using xslt template and wsdl file, An xml payload 
template and a type mapping template for each defined operation should 
be generated.

Then we need to obtain function parameters from user invoked function 
and fill the corresponding template and send the message.
Received message would be mapped to php types and returned to the php 
code by using the type mapping template.So basically we would need 
templates, which would handle both  wsdl 1.1 and wsdl 2.0.

thanks
Buddhika
