Soap::Lite set charset

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Simple question but I can't figure it out.
I want to send iso-8858-5 to a Soap service, but Soap::Lite client defaults to utf8.
How do I change that?

Not sure what you mean but try `$client->encoding('iso-8858-5');` [download] poj	[reply] [d/l]

The client sends by default "Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8" But what if my charset is iso and not utf? Would the server interpret the characters correctly? I can't find any instructions on how to chanhe that!	[reply]

Hi What server? What did you try and what happened when you tried it? What happens when you grep? https://grep.metacpan.org/search?qd=SOAP-Lite&source=metacpan&q=charset https://grep.metacpan.org/search?qd=SOAP-Lite&source=metacpan&q=UTF-8 https://grep.metacpan.org/search?qd=SOAP-Lite&source=metacpan&q=encoding https://grep.metacpan.org/search?qd=SOAP-Lite&source=metacpan&q=content-type SOAP::Constants SOAP::Serializer SOAP::Transport::HTTP	[reply]

Are you sure it's iso-8858-5? `$ perl -MEncode -wE 'say encode("iso-8858-5", "abc")' Unknown encoding 'iso-8858-5' at -e line 1.` [download] Maybe you need iso-8859-5? `map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]\|\|0,1}[\\|\|{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^ARGV,3]`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
