XML-RPC

[Chris]

Hi all,

I'm trying to build a sample XML-RPC using PHP, but can't get the
sample working.
Can experienced users tell me why?


//--------------------------------------------- server.php
---------------------------------------

<?php
include 'xmlrpc.inc';
include 'xmlrpcs.inc';

function sumAndDifferenc e ($params) {

// Parse our parameters.
$xval = $params->getParam(0);
$x = $xval->scalarval();
$yval = $params->getParam(1);
$y = $yval->scalarval();

// Build our response.
$struct = array('sum' =new xmlrpcval($x + $y, 'int'),
'difference' =new xmlrpcval($x - $y, 'int'));
return new xmlrpcresp(new xmlrpcval($stru ct, 'struct'));
}

while(1) {
new xmlrpc_server(a rray("sumAndDif ference" =array("functio n" =>
"sumAndDifferen ce")));
}
?>

//--------------------------------------------- client.php
---------------------------------------


<?php
include 'xmlrpc.inc';

// Make an object to represent our server.
$server = new xmlrpc_client("/xmlrpc/server.php", "localhost" , 80);
// Send a message to the server.
$message = new xmlrpcmsg("samp le.sumAndDiffer ence",array(new
xmlrpcval(5, 'int'),new xmlrpcval(3, 'int')));
$result = $server->send($message) ;

// Process the response.
if (!$result) {
print "Could not connect to server\n";
} elseif ($result->faultCode()) {
print "XML-RPC Fault #" . $result->faultCode() . ": " .
$result->faultString( );
} else {
$struct = $result->value();
$sumval = $struct->structmem('sum ');
$sum = $sumval->scalarval();
$differenceval = $struct->structmem('dif ference');
$difference = $differenceval->scalarval();
print "Sum: " . $sum .
", Difference: " . $difference;
}
?>

I have to run this code on Linux. Please tell me how to run the client
and server. I am using php client/server.php to run my programs.

Kindly let me know the solution.


Thanks,
Chris

You didn't post what error messages you are getting.

<?php
include 'xmlrpc.inc';
include 'xmlrpcs.inc';

These aren't the names of the XML_RPC include files for starters, so go back
to the manual and copy out the examples again:
