| Subject: | Missing XML declaration in request [patch] |
The XML generated by SOAP::WSDL::Serializer::XSD does not include a declaration at the start.
Some web services will not accept requests without a declaration.
W3C recommendation states "XML documents should begin with an XML declaration which specifies the version of XML being used."
See: http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#sec-prolog-dtd
The attached patch adds a declaration to the generated XML.
