Class virtual XmlRpcServer.base

class virtual base : object .. end

Abstract base class for XmlRpc servers.

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