this is alreday done ... this is docuemted too :)

$soap->addFunction(array('function_one', 'function_two'));

this is handled differently.. if you want to expose all methods for a class you
have to.

$soap->setClass("some_class");

class some_class
{
 function method_one();
 function method_two();
}

now the soap server will act just like that class will.

and you can acually have persitiant objects too... take a look at

http://phpsoaptoolkit.sourceforge.net/phpsoap/guide/samples/object/
and 
http://phpsoaptoolkit.sourceforge.net/phpsoap/guide/samples/session_object/

 yeah it can't be compiled as a dso.. it can be compiled in staically..
 just your normal configure.

./configure --enable-soap --(other php config options) --with-apache=(apache
