SOAP 的request 如下,HTTP headers在上面, SOAP message 在下面:
--------- HTTP portion of the message ------

Content-Length: nnn
--------- SOAP portion of the message ------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<soap:Envelope
xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-envelope"
soap:encodingStyle="http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-encoding">
<soap:Body xmlns:m="http://www.example.org/stock">
