SoapClient::__setLocationSets the location of the Web service to use

Description

public SoapClient::__setLocation(?string $location = null): ?string

Sets the endpoint URL that will be touched by following SOAP requests. This is equivalent to specifying the location option when constructing the SoapClient.

Examples

Example #1 SoapClient::__setLocation() example

<?php
$client
= new SoapClient('http://example.com/webservice.php?wsdl');

$client->__setLocation('http://www.somethirdparty.com');

$old_location = $client->__setLocation(); // unsets the location option

echo $old_location;

?>

The above example will output something similar to:

http://www.somethirdparty.com

for some cases , ignoring location from initialization throw exception

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [HTTP] Could not connect to host

Better call and define the end point location manually.
