=head1 NAME

Bio::DB::ESoap - Client for the NCBI Entrez EUtilities SOAP server

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 $fac = Bio::DB::ESoap->new( -util => 'esearch' );
 $som = $fac->run( -db => 'prot', -term => 'HIV and gp120' );
 $fac->set_parameters( -term => 'HIV2 and gp160' );
 # accessors corresponding to valid parameters are also created:
 $fac->db('nuccore');
 $som = $fac->run;

 # more later.
 
=head1 DESCRIPTION

C<ESoap> provides a basic SOAP interface to the NCBI Entrez Utilities
Web Service
(L<http://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/soap/v2.0/DOC/esoap_help.html>).
L<SOAP::Lite> handles the SOAP calls. Higher level access, pipelines,
BioPerl object I/O and such are provided by
L<Bio::DB::SoapEUtilities>.

C<ESoap> complies with L<Bio::ParameterBaseI>. It depends explicitly
on NCBI web service description language files to inform the
C<available_parameters()> method. WSDLs are parsed by a relative
lightweight, Entrez-specific module L<Bio::DB::ESoap::WSDL>.

The C<run()> method returns L<SOAP::SOM> (SOAP Message) objects. No
fault checking or other parsing is performed in this module.

=head1 FEEDBACK

=head2 Mailing Lists

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to
the Bioperl mailing list.  Your participation is much appreciated.

=head2 Support

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

L<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem
with code and data examples if at all possible.

=head2 Reporting Bugs

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
of the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via
the web:
