Nick and Don I too have been looking into these specs over the last few days. > 1) Is there an official mail list or workgroup for XML-RPC? I think everything is centred at http://www.xml-rpc.com/ > 2) Are there any competing standards with XML-RPC? See WDDX at http://wddx.org : designed for exchanging data sets / data structures between client / server and server / server; commentary on integration with xml-rpc at http://discuss.userland.com/msgReader$2082 See LDO at http://www.ntlug.org/casbah/; commentary on bringing together with xml-rpc at http://discuss.userland.com/msgReader$2583 > > 1. Get a list of all the available methods and their signature > > (i.e. args)? See this discussion : http://discuss.userland.com/msgReader$2829 > > 2. Send XML fragments as an argument. > > 3. Send and receive anonymous streams as argument and as result? >From the spec, for the request: If the procedure call has parameters, the <methodCall> must contain a <params> sub-item. The <params> sub-item can contain any number of <param>s, each of which has a <value>. Scalar <value>s <value>s can be scalars, type is indicated by nesting the value inside one of the tags listed in this table: Tag Type Example <i4> or <int> four-byte signed integer -12 <boolean> 0 (false) or 1 (true) 1 <string> ASCII string hello world <double> double-precision signed floating point number -12.214 <dateTime.iso8601> date/time 19980717T14:08:55 <base64> base64-encoded binary eW91IGNhbid0IHJlYWQgdGhpcyE= For the response: The body of the response is a single XML structure, a <methodResponse>, which can contain a single <params> which contains a single <param> which contains a single <value>. xmlTree lists two xml-rpc interfaces at http://www.xmltree.com/resource/detail.cfm/ContainerID/10/ResourceID/224 and at http://www.xmltree.com/resource/detail.cfm/ContainerID/38/ResourceID/500 Hope this helps.
