# # XML-RPC CLIENT LIBRARY # $Id: xmlrpclib.py,v 1.1.2.3 2000/11/22 15:10:35 hathawsh Exp $ # # an XML-RPC client interface for Python. # # the marshalling and response parser code can also be used to # implement XML-RPC servers. # # Notes: # this version uses the sgmlop XML parser, if installed. this is # typically 10-15x faster than using Python's standard XML parser. # # you can get the sgmlop distribution from: # # http://www.pythonware.com/madscientist # # also note that this version is designed to work with Python 1.5.1 # or newer. it doesn't use any 1.5.2-specific features. # # History: # 1999-01-14 fl Created # 1999-01-15 fl Changed dateTime to use localtime # 1999-01-16 fl Added Binary/base64 element, default to RPC2 service # 1999-01-19 fl Fixed array data element (from Skip Montanaro) # 1999-01-21 fl Fixed dateTime constructor, etc. # 1999-02-02 fl Added fault handling, handle empty sequences, etc. # 1999-02-10 fl Fixed problem with empty responses (from Skip Montanaro) # 1999-06-20 fl Speed improvements, pluggable XML parsers and HTTP transports # # Copyright (c) 1999 by Secret Labs AB. # Copyright (c) 1999 by Fredrik Lundh. # # fredrik@pythonware.com # http://www.pythonware.com # # -------------------------------------------------------------------- # The XML-RPC client interface is # # Copyright (c) 1999 by Secret Labs AB # Copyright (c) 1999 by Fredrik Lundh # # By obtaining, using, and/or copying this software and/or its # associated documentation, you agree that you have read, understood, # and will comply with the following terms and conditions: # # Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software and # its associated documentation for any purpose and without fee is # hereby granted, provided that the above copyright notice appears in # all copies, and that both that copyright notice and this permission # notice appear in supporting documentation, and that the name of # Secret Labs AB or the author not be used in advertising or publicity # pertaining to distribution of the software without specific, written # prior permission. # # SECRET LABS AB AND THE AUTHOR DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES WITH REGARD # TO THIS SOFTWARE, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANT- # ABILITY AND FITNESS.
