die SOAP::Fault->faultcode('Server.Custom') # will be qualified ->faultstring('Died in server method') ->faultdetail(bless {code => 1} => 'BadError') ->faultactor('http://www.soaplite.com/custom');
$fault = SOAP::Fault->new(faultcode => 'Server');
Explicitly creates a new SOAP::Fault object. Any of the four attributes represented next by accessor methods may be passed in the argument list with values immediately following their attribute name.
$fault->faultcode('MethodUnknown');
Returns the current fault code or sets it if a value is given.
$fault->faultstring("There is no $method here");
Returns or sets the fault string.
$fault->faultcode($header->actor);
Returns or sets the fault-actor element. Note that the actor isn't always required in a SOAP fault.
$fault->faultcode(bless { proxy => $ip }, 'Err');
Returns or sets the fault's detail element. Like the actor, this isn't always a required element. Note that fault detail content in a message is represented as tag blocks. Thus, the values passed to this accessor when setting the value are either SOAP::Data objects, or more general blessed hash references.
In addition to these methods, the SOAP::Fault package also provides detail as an alias for faultdetail. The former is the actual name of the element with SOAP faults, but the latter name is less ambiguous when regarded with the rest of the SOAP::Lite package. Objects of this class also have a special stringification enabled. If an object is printed or otherwise stringified, the value produced is faultcode: faultstring, with the attribute values of the object.
