SOAP extension and object records

Greetings,

I'm a newbie in SOAP, and I'm doing my first experiments using PHP. I suspect there is a bug in records processing, but I thought it was useful to discuss it here before submitting a possibly bogus bug report.

I'll explain briefly the test case, but before a tiny side note: I've been reading thru the ext/soap source code and cleaned up some white spaces. Shall I submit that patch?

Back in topic, I define a simple record type:

<schema xmlns:tns="urn:testing" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="urn:testing">
  <complexType name="Product">
    <all>
      <element name="id" type="int" />
      <element name="title" type="string" />
      <element name="description" type="string" minOccurs="0" />
    </all>
  </complexType>
</schema>

And a simple operation:

Now the SOAP envelope. First a complete record but with bogus data (a string in place of the int):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soap:Envelope
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">;
soap:Body
<product>
<id>hello</id>
<title>Product name</title>
</product>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

So far all fine, a SOAP fault is returned:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">;SOAP-ENV:Body SOAP-ENV:Fault<faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Server</faultcode><faultstring>SOAP-ERROR: Encoding: Violation of encoding rules</faultstring></SOAP-ENV:Fault></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

But if I submit an incomplete record no errors are returned:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soap:Envelope
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">;
soap:Body
<product>
<title>Product name</title>
</product>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

The server callback function is called with the following arguments:

array(1) {
[0]=>
object(stdClass)#2 (1) {
["title"]=>
string(12) "Product name"
}
}

But I'd expect another encoding violation fault, because there was NOT minOccurs="0" in Product's <id> element definition. Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you
