## Appendix A. Integration with the PHP xmlrpc extension

To be documented more...

In short: for the fastest execution possible, you can enable the php native xmlrpc extension, and use it in conjunction with phpxmlrpc. The following code snippet gives an example of such integration

    /*** client side ***/
    $c = new xmlrpc_client('http://phpxmlrpc.sourceforge.net/server.php');

    // tell the client to return raw xml as response value
    $c->return_type = 'xml';

    // let the native xmlrpc extension take care of encoding request parameters
    $r = $c->send(xmlrpc_encode_request('examples.getStateName', $_POST['stateno']));

    if ($r->faultCode())
      // HTTP transport error
      echo 'Got error '.$r->faultCode();
    else
    {
      // HTTP request OK, but XML returned from server not parsed yet
      $v = xmlrpc_decode($r->value());
      // check if we got a valid xmlrpc response from server
      if ($v === NULL)
        echo 'Got invalid response';
      else
      // check if server sent a fault response
      if (xmlrpc_is_fault($v))
        echo 'Got xmlrpc fault '.$v['faultCode'];
      else
        echo'Got response: '.htmlentities($v);
    }
