|
||
<code class="function">wrap_xmlrpc_method</code> functions have been moved
|
||
out of the base library file <code class="filename">xmlrpc.inc</code> into
|
||
a file of their own: <code class="filename">xmlrpc_wrappers.inc</code>. You
|
||
will have to include() / require() it in your scripts if you have
|
||
been using those functions. For increased security, the automatic
|
||
rebuilding of php object instances out of received xmlrpc structs
|
||
in <code class="function">wrap_xmlrpc_method()</code> has been disabled
|
||
(but it can be optionally re-enabled). Both
|
||
<code class="function">wrap_php_function()</code> and
|
||
<code class="function">wrap_xmlrpc_method()</code> functions accept many
|
||
more options to fine tune their behaviour, including one to return
|
||
the php code to be saved and later used as standalone php
|
||
script</p></li><li><p>The constructor of xmlrpcval() values has seen some internal
|
||
changes, and it will not throw a php warning anymore when invoked
|
||
using an unknown xmlrpc type: the error will only be written to
|
||
php error log. Also <code class="code">new xmlrpcval('true', 'boolean')</code>
|
||
is not supported anymore</p></li><li><p>The new function
|
||
<code class="function">php_xmlrpc_decode_xml()</code> will take the xml
|
||
representation of either an xmlrpc request, response or single
|
||
value and return the corresponding php-xmlrpc object
|
||
instance</p></li><li><p>A new function <code class="function">wrap_xmlrpc_server()</code>has
|
||
been added, to wrap all (or some) of the methods exposed by a
|
||
remote xmlrpc server into a php class</p></li><li><p>A new file has been added:
|
||
<code class="filename">verify_compat.php</code>, to help users diagnose the
|
||
level of compliance of their php installation with the
|
||
library</p></li><li><p>Restored compatibility with php 4.0.5 (for those poor souls
|
||
still stuck on it)</p></li><li><p>Method <code class="methodname">xmlrpc_server->service()</code>
|
||
now returns a value: either the response payload or xmlrpcresp
|
||
object instance</p></li><li><p>Method
|
||
<code class="methodname">xmlrpc_server->add_to_map()</code> now
|
||
accepts xmlrpc methods with no param definitions</p></li><li><p>Documentation for single parameters of exposed methods can
|
||
be added to the dispatch map (and turned into html docs in
|
||
conjunction with a future release of the 'extras' package)</p></li><li><p>Full response payload is saved into xmlrpcresp object for
|
||
further debugging</p></li><li><p>The debugger can now generate code that wraps a remote
|
||
method into a php function (works for jsonrpc, too); it also has
|
||
better support for being activated via a single GET call (e.g. for
|
||
integration into other tools)</p></li><li><p>Stricter parsing of incoming xmlrpc messages: two more
|
||
invalid cases are now detected (double <code class="literal">data</code>
|
||
element inside <code class="literal">array</code> and
|
||
<code class="literal">struct</code>/<code class="literal">array</code> after scalar
|
||
inside <code class="literal">value</code> element)</p></li><li><p>More logging of errors in a lot of situations</p></li><li><p>Javadoc documentation of lib files (almost) complete</p></li><li><p>Many performance tweaks and code cleanups, plus the usual
|
||
crop of bugs fixed (see NEWS file for complete list of
|
||
bugs)</p></li><li><p>Lib internals have been modified to provide better support
|
||
for grafting extra functionality on top of it. Stay tuned for
|
||
future releases of the EXTRAS package (or go read Appendix
|
||
B)...</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr /><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="ch02s03.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="ch02.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="ch02s05.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">2.2 </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> 2.0 final</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
