void begStruct (void)
Start member struct.

Detailed Description

This class impliments a core XMLRPC service without the underlying transports.

It is meant to create and parse XMLRPC messages. To use for a fit purpose, one might combine it with URLStream, although this implimentation makes no requirement for http based transport.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ost::XMLRPC::XMLRPC (size_t bufferSize = 512)
Construct XMLRPC workspace. Parameters:

bufferSize size of buffer when using old C++ strstreams. When the newer stringstream (<sstream>) is available, this parameter is silently ignored.

virtual ost::XMLRPC::~XMLRPC () [virtual]
Destroy XMLRPC object.

Member Function Documentation

void ost::XMLRPC::addMember (const char * name, const char * value)
Add a string member to XMLRPC struct. Parameters:

name of member.
value of member.

void ost::XMLRPC::addMember (const char * name, long value)
Add an integer member to XMLRPC struct. Parameters:

name of member.
value of member.

void ost::XMLRPC::addMember (const char * name, bool value)
Add bool member to a XMLRPC struct. Parameters:

name of member.
value of member.

void ost::XMLRPC::addParam (const char * string)
Add a string paramater to XMLRPC request. Parameters:

string to add.

void ost::XMLRPC::addParam (long value)
Add an integer paramater to XMLRPC request. Parameters:

value to add.

void ost::XMLRPC::addParam (bool value)
Add bool param to XMLRPC request. Parameters:

value to add.

void ost::XMLRPC::begArray (void)
Create an array.

void ost::XMLRPC::begStruct (void) [protected]
Start member struct.

void ost::XMLRPC::endArray (void)
end an array.

void ost::XMLRPC::endStruct (void)
Clear a struct.

void ost::XMLRPC::invoke (const char * method)
Create XMLRPC ’method’ call in buffer. Parameters:

method name of method being called.

virtual bool ost::XMLRPC::post (const char * resource, const char * msg) [protected, pure virtual]
Used in a derived transport class to deliver the XMLRPC encoded request and return true if successful. The Parse method can then be used to decode the reply.

Returns:

true if successful.

Parameters:

resource to send to (such as url).
msg well formed XMLRPC request message.

void ost::XMLRPC::response (bool fault)
Create XMLRPC ’reply’ to a method call. Parameters:

fault set true for fault message.

bool ost::XMLRPC::send (const char * resource)
Complete buffer and send well formed XMLRPC request thru post. Returns:

true if successful.

Parameters:

resource to send to.
