=head1 DESCRIPTION

This Apache Perl module provides the ability to add support for SOAP (Simple
Object Access Protocol) protocol with easy configuration (either in .conf or
in .htaccess file). This functionality should give you lightweight option
for hosting SOAP services and greatly simplify configuration aspects. This
module inherites functionality from SOAP::Transport::HTTP::Apache component
of SOAP::Lite module.

=head1 CONFIGURATION

The module can be placed in <Location>, <Directory>, <Files>, <FilesMatch>
directives in main server configuration areas or directly in .htaccess file.

All parameters should be quoted and can be separated with commas or spaces
for lists ("a, b, c") and with 'wide arrows' and commas for hash parameters
("key1 => value1, key2 => value2").

All options that you can find in SOAP::Transport::HTTP::Apache component
are available for configuration. Here is the description of most important
ones.

=item dispatch_to (LIST)

=item options (HASH)

Specifies list of options for your module, for example threshold for
