How to separate string that Soap generates?

Question

if(!empty($_POST['submit'])) {
$client = new SoapClient('http://hidroweb.ana.gov.br/fcthservices/mma.asmx?WSDL');

$function = 'Estado';

$options = array('location' => 'http://hidroweb.ana.gov.br/fcthservices/mma.asmx');

$result = $client->__soapCall($function,$options);

var_dump($result);
?>

The result is this:

Object(stdClass)#2 (1) { ["Estadoresult"]=> Object(stdClass)#3 (1) { ["any"]=> string(2956) "URURUGUAIARARGENTINAPGPARAGUAICHCHILEBOBOLÍVIAPUPERUCOCOLÔMBIAEQEQUADORVEVENEZUELAGUGUIANASUSURINAMEGFGUIANA FRANCESA11RORONDÔNIA12ACACRE13AMAMAZONAS14RRRORAIMA15PAPARÁ16APAMAPÁ17TOTOCANTINS21MAMARANHÃO22PIPIAUÍ23CECEARÁ24RNRIO GREAT OF NORTE25PBPARABA26PEPERNAMBUCO27ALAGOAS28SESERGIPE29BABAHIA31MGMINAS GERAIS32ESESPING PAULO41PRAPRANA42SCSANTA CATARINA43RSRIO GRANDE DO SUL50MSMATATO GROSSO OF THE FEDERAL POLICE" } }

I don’t understand I need the object to come apart. Because Soap is returning everything together. It’s like??

You don’t need to separate anything, the return is probably in order and separate.

The problem is just the way you are displaying the data on the screen.

You can see that even your string between quotes has about 480 characters, and the indicated return was 2956 characters. The returned tags are not being shown on the screen, because the browser try to interpret them.

Test like this:

if(!empty($_POST['submit'])) {
$client = new SoapClient('http://hidroweb.ana.gov.br/fcthservices/mma.asmx?WSDL');
$function = 'Estado';
$options = array('location' => 'http://hidroweb.ana.gov.br/fcthservices/mma.asmx');
$result = $client->__soapCall($function,$options);

//VISUALIZAÇÃO EM HTML

// Vamos capturar a saída...
ob_start();
var_dump($result);
$saida = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

//e formatar para ver na tela:
echo nl2br( htmlentities( $saida ) );

Note: depending on the case it is best to use print_r in place of var_dump.
