Module Protocols.XMLRPC

Description

This module implements most features of the XML-RPC standard (see http://xml-rpc.org/).

Translation rules for conversions from Pike datatypes to XML-RPC datatypes:

Pike int is translated to XML-RPC <int>. Pike string is translated to XML-RPC <string>. Pike float is translated to XML-RPC <double>. Pike mapping is translated to XML-RPC <struct>. Pike array is translated to XML-RPC <array>. Pike Calendar object is translated to XML-RPC <dateTime.iso8601. Pike Val.false and Val.true is translated to XML-RPC <boolean>.

Translation rules for conversions from XML-RPC datatypes to Pike datatypes:

XML-RPC <i4> and <int> are translated to Pike int. XML-RPC <boolean> is translated to Pike Val.true and Val.false. XML-RPC <string> and <base64> are translated to Pike string. XML_RPC <double> is translated to Pike float. XML-RPC <struct> is translated to Pike mapping. XML-RPC <array> is translated to Pike array. XML-RPC <dateTime.iso8601> is translated to Pike Calendar object.

Note

The XML-RPC <dateTime.iso8601> datatype does not assume any time zone, but local time is always used in the conversion to Calendar objects.
