| Subject: | PayPal API does not work with SOAP::Constants::DO_NOT_USE_XML_PARSER |
SOAP::Lite by default loads the XML::Parser module, but you can disable it by setting this
constant:
$SOAP::Constants::DO_NOT_USE_XML_PARSER = 1;
This is described in the POD docs for SOAP::Lite. However, if you set the constant above
Business::Paypal::API fails to work entirely. It reports this error:
404 Not Found at /ipix/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.7/Business/PayPal/API.pm line 142
This is highly desirable for people who don't have XML::Parser installed, or are using Apache/
mod_perl. SOAP::Lite will cause segmentation faults in Apache because XML::Parser links to
"expat" which Apache already has loaded.
