Hello. I want view the XML response of XML-RPC directly in the browser with a XSL but, i can't find good examples to do it with structures iterance, arrays and...
I have recently taken up a project which entails output of statistical information. Many if not most of the other applications in the enterprise use XML-RPC as...
A lot of other useful data types miss from the lib. NULL for example would make it a breeze to move around stuff gotten out of databases. But (imho),...
... The strength of XML-RPC is the interoperability. The spec has been stable for years now and I see no real chance that it will get changed now. Why doesn't...
... This is an unfortunate way to see this technology. ... Because the app or user must have previous knowledge of this string or datatype to be converted....
Hi. The issue "XML-RPC doesn't do what I need, can we add x to it?" has come up so many times. Really, search the archives and you will find literally ...

... Dave isn't the owner of anything significant. He controls one file on the Internet and possibly the name XML-RPC, but those aren't significant. People...
Hi All, Just to add my humble view on this matter, I am both against any change in the XML-RPC and against making a new extended standard that would replace...
Hi, I fully agree with keeping the standard as is, for the reasons iterated in a number of other messages. Even more, such an extended standard is alive and...
So the short answer to all of this is: "no there is never going to be a change in the spec". I thought that native support of common integral data types were...
... Sure we would. The 1999 spec. Extensions have existed for years, and those of us who need maximum interoperability at the XML-RPC layer ignore them. I...
... I don't think the lack of protocol version information makes much difference in this case. At best, it would just get you a better error message when you...
... What I'm thinking is that if you can write a program that falls back to the 1999 standard, then you might as well do _just_ the 1999 standard. In other...
Wow. Quite a spirited debate thus far. I've waited before chiming in, because I've had actual person-to-person clashes with Dave Winer over these issues. I...
I agree in principle that if a specification resists to change, it starts gathering dust. However, the biggest problem that I see with an evolutionary step of...
... What do you see as the purpose of XML-RPC, then? With just plain HTTP (indeed with just plain IP), you can express all the things people want to express...
... Indeed, you could implement everything over HTTP (just like they do in REST, right?), or using TCP sockets, or certainly in many other ways. Well, maybe...
... You have to accomodate your client code to the server anyway, because Google's service will use particular methods with particular parameter lists. Two...
Hi. Although I was suprised at first by the seeming inflexibility of the spec's author, I eventually came to admire the assertions: - any-one can write a spec...

Maybe whomever controls the spec can agree that it is time for a committee on extensions to the spec. I think it's a very good idea to only consider...
... Maybe you haven't been listening -- nobody controls the spec. There's nothing to control about it. The spec just is. What one would like to control is...
Hi all, Could anyone in this group please give me the example of java code to attach the file with xmlrpc request. Thank you for help in advance. Cheers, ...
I'm getting an error I don't quite understand with my first attempt at a xmlrpc server. First let me explain I have no idea what I'm doing. I haven't figured...
Instead of push(sig,"a"); it should be push(@sig,"a"); The easiest way to spot this kind of problem in Perl is to always set the script so Perl will issue ...
