[TYPO3-mvc] SOAP call using extbase

[Bernhard Kraft]

Hello !

I have a question regarding extbase architecture:

I have to implement an extension performing a SOAP request. I got the 
basics running, my controller executes an action "formAction" which 
displays a form. When the visitor fills in information and pushes the 
submit button another action "resultAction" get's called.

Now this "resultAction" should perform the SOAP request. I guess the 
SOAP interface should get implemented as respository? Correct?

So I created a model having all variables being used in the SOAP 
request. And then? Is there some base class I should inherit the 
SOAP-Repository class from? Do I have to conform to some interface?

I see there there are currently only repositories for different kinds of 
persistence. But I guess a  SOAP call should rather be seen as an RPC 
request - so "ProcedureCall" instead of "Persistence" ... I guess one 
should differ between those two types of data retrieveal. Of course any 
ProcedureCall could be used to retrieve information from an Persistence 
layer.

So are there any working implementations, etc. for SOAP request or would 
it  make sense to create a new directory "Procedure" or "ProcedureCall" 
in the extbase/Classes directory and start writing such a/an interface/s


thanks for any hints,
Bernhard
