Creating SOAP Request in Apex
I am trying to call a web service in PeopleSoft from salesforce (Apex class). The service requires a SOAP XML request with necessary security (username and password) in SOAP header.
I generated Apex classes from the WSDL following this document.
http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Apex_Web_Services_and_Callouts
But there is not an option to create a SOAP request using the classes generated from WSDl2Apex.
Is it possible to create a complete SOAP XML HTTP request to call an external web service from an Apex class?
Is it possible to use the standard SOAP APIs in Apex to create a complete SOAP XML request in a Apex class?
Thanks,
Raji

Thanks for your prompt response.
That is the best alternative/workaround for making callouts to a SOAP web service.
I have created the entire SOAP request including the SOAP Header as a string and sending it over Http.
Pls mark that as a solution for the other's benifit..
