This page contains various useful XML-RPC hacks. Most of these add new
features to other XML-RPC libraries.
If any of the patches on this page apply to a program you maintain,
please feel free to apply them to your master copy. I'm willing to change
the licensing terms as needed.
Documentation
Code
Libraries with built-in introspection support include XML-RPC PHP, XML-RPC.Net,
UserLand Frontier and
xmlrpc-c. Patches for many
other libraries can be found below.
- Web-based
instrospection client (by Graham Dumpleton)
Determine the methods supported by an XML-RPC server using the web.
Very nifty. An interactive debugger is included.
- Python
XML-RPC Debugger (by Graham Dumpleton)
This includes a Python Tk GUI.
xml-rpc-api2txt
Generate nice, clean ASCII documentation for an XML-RPC server using
the introspection API. Requires Frontier::RPC2. (sample output)
xml-rpc-api2cpp
Generates C++ proxy classes for remote XML-RPC servers using
introspection. Included with xmlrpc-c. (sample output)
xmlrpc_registry.py
sample.py
Introspection and system.multicall support for Fredrik Lundh's
excellent xmlrpclib.
Registry.pm
sample.pl
Introspection and system.multicall support for Ken MacLeod's Frontier::RPC2. This
should probably work with other Perl XML-RPC servers with a bit of
tweaking.
xmlrpc.jar
helma-xmlrpc-introspection.diff
SampleServer.java
Introspection support and a security fix for Hannes Wallnoefer's
excellent Helma XML-RPC for
Java. This code is fully automatic, relying on the Java 1.1 Reflection
API to calculate method signatures. Note that you will need to change your
exising classes slighly to work with the new security code--see the example
or patch for details. (The pre-built xmlrpc.jar file contains the core
server, but no servlet or FESI support.)
test_multicall.py
Make sure your system.multicall implementation behaves properly.
Requires xmlrpclib.
