XmlRpcServer.base

# Class virtual XmlRpcServer.base

    class virtual base : object .. end

Abstract base class for XmlRpc servers.

    val methods : (string, XmlRpc.value list -> XmlRpc.value) Hashtbl.t

Hashtable mapping method names to implementation functions.

    val mutable base64_encoder : string -> string

Base-64 binary encoding function.

    val mutable base64_decoder : string -> string

Base-64 binary decoding function.

    val mutable datetime_encoder : XmlRpcDateTime.t -> string

ISO-8601 date/time encoding function.

    val mutable datetime_decoder : string -> XmlRpcDateTime.t

ISO-8601 date/time decoding function.

    val mutable error_handler : exn -> XmlRpc.message

Handler for unhandled exceptions.

    method set_base64_encoder : (string -> string) -> unit

Sets an alternate Base-64 binary encoding function.

    method set_base64_decoder : (string -> string) -> unit

Sets an alternate Base-64 binary decoding function.

    method set_datetime_encoder : (XmlRpcDateTime.t -> string) -> unit

Sets an alternate ISO-8601 date/time encoding function.

    method set_datetime_decoder : (string -> XmlRpcDateTime.t) -> unit

Sets an alternate ISO-8601 date/time decoding function.

    method set_error_handler : (exn -> XmlRpc.message) -> unit

Sets an alternate handler for unhandled exceptions. See `XmlRpc.default_error_handler` and `XmlRpc.quiet_error_handler` for examples.

    method serve : (string -> XmlRpc.value list -> XmlRpc.value) -> string -> string

For use in subclasses; calls `XmlRpc.serve` with the current encoders, decoders, and error handler.

    method serve_message : (string -> XmlRpc.value list -> XmlRpc.value) ->
           XmlRpc.message -> XmlRpc.message

Like `serve`, but operates on messages instead of strings.

    method register : string ->
           ?help:string ->
           ?signature:param_type list ->
           ?signatures:param_type list list ->
           (XmlRpc.value list -> XmlRpc.value) -> unit

Registers a method with the server.

If a `help` string is specified, its contents will be returned for calls to `system.methodHelp` for this method.

If `signature` is specified, this method's signature will be published by `system.methodSignature` and (shallow) type-checking will be enabled for parameters passed into this method.

Multiple signatures can be supplied via `signatures` if desired to provide for overloaded methods.

Signatures are of the form `return-type; param1-type; param2-type; ...` where each type is an instance of the `XmlRpcServer.param_type` variant.

    method unregister : string -> unit

Removes a method from the server.

    method virtual run : unit -> unit

Starts the main server process.
