Any Coding Experience with Perl SOAP::Lite WS client for an Axis WS server?

Hello,

I am currently struggling with implementing a Perl SOAP client based on the SOAP::Lite toolkit.
The to be used SOAP server is a Java/Axis implementation running on RHEL.
Since I was provided with a WSDL file for this service I (naively) thought this would be a not too dificult job.
The only problem is that the SOAP::Lite WSDL/XML parser doesn't seem swallow this.
Therefore I fear I will have to prepare the complexType params (an aggregated object of several classes) all by myself with appropiate SOAP::DATA invocations, which seems rather daunting and error prone to me.
On CPAN I found a module SOAP::WSDL that claims to be a sort of panacea but which currently defies installation (i.e. dependencies problem).

So far all the SOAP::Lite code samples, docs and howtos I have found seem to be focused on rather primitive WS, such as temperature conversions from F to C and the likes.

Though this on itself hasn't much to do with HP-UX, my SOAP client is supposed to run on 11.11
which I hope is justification enough to waste ITRC Forums' bandwith with this thread.

I would be glad if someone could spare me some hints.
