I agree that my initial use of the colon is probably not that great.  Still, it
seems that we could put the namespace in the <member> element, thus:

    POST /xmlrpc/ HTTP/1.0
    Host: www.openweblog.com
    Content-Type: text/xml

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <methodCall>
     <methodName>metaWeblog.newPost</methodName>
      <params>
       <param>
        <struct>
    ....
         <member>
          <namespace>

Release: XML-RPC library for Erlang

Hi,
I have concluded an XML-RPC library for the Erlang programming language
Read more about Erlang here: http://www.erlang.org/.

The library has passed the validator service at
http://validator.xmlrpc.org/.

The library can be downloaded from here:
http://www.gleipnir.com/xmlrpc/xmlrpc-1.0.tgz

An unpacked version of it can be found here:
http://www.gleipnir.com/xmlrpc/unpacked/xmlrpc-1.0/

Read the man page and examples for a quick understanding of what the
library provides:
http://www.gleipnir.com/xmlrpc/unpacked/xmlrpc-1.0/doc/
http://www.gleipnir.com/xmlrpc/unpacked/xmlrpc-1.0/examples/

The Erlang validator1 XML-RPC server looks like this:
http://www.gleipnir.com/xmlrpc/unpacked/xmlrpc-1.0/examples/validator.erl

Cheers

Re: Release: XML-RPC library for Erlang

Btw, I have a validator1 server running on 217.208.210.61:4567
if someone care to test it using http://validator.xmlrpc.org.

Cheers

Ahh... Nevermind. I forgot that the XML-RPC spec was frozen.

New Message: RFC: Support for other namespaces in MetaWeblog API

A new message was posted:

Address: http://www.xmlrpc.com/discuss/msgReader$2391

By: Mark A. Hershberger (mah <at> everybody.org)

The MetaWeblog API states that the members of the struct in newPost, editPost, etc, "are the elements of
&lt;item> in RSS 2.0, providing a rich variety of item-level metadata, with well-understood applications."

This is a great and wonderful thing. But while RSS 2.0 supports multiple namespaces, the MW API has no way to
communicate that information to the server.

Adding the capability to communicate these other RSS 2.0 elements to the server would be very beneficial.
For instance, the trackback namespace: I would like to tell my weblog server which trackbacks have
already been pinged and (perhaps) request it to ping additional trackbacks on my behalf. In the current
API, I cannot do that.

The following is my proposal (which I've been changing in response to input from Dave Winer) for including
this information into the MW API.

To tell the server that you are using a new namespace for these elements, you should have a new &lt;member>.
The member's &lt;name> should be "otherNamespace" and its &lt;value> should be a &lt;struct>.

The struct should have two members. The first member should be named "namespace" and should give the URI of
the namespace (e.g. http://madskills.com/public/xml/rss/module/trackback/ for the "trackback"
namespace). The second member of the struct should be named "elements" and its value should be a new struct
containing all the elements of that namespace and their values.

An example is posted at &lt;http://www.openweblog.info/archive/80614093>.

New Message: New C++ XML-RPC client/server implementation

A new message was posted:

Address: http://www.xmlrpc.com/discuss/msgReader$2392

By: Chris Morley (cmorley <at> vermontel.net)

I suppose XML-RPC implementations are bit passe nowadays, but I had a need for a portable C++
implementation of XML-RPC client and server that would easily integrate with C++ applications without
requiring other libraries.

I based the design on Shilad Sen's excellent py-xmlrpc library, and I expect that performance should be
comparable (but haven't measured it yet).

The code is available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/xmlrpcpp [1]
Although there are a few more items on the to-do list, it is working and usable as is.

Check it out and let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Chris

Exactly what my users want is to be able to select a picture, have it get uploaded automatically, and then
have NetNewsWire automatically generate the img tag (or whatever) to link to the object.

This method enables that. I can't think of anything I'd change.

Of course, one might in the future consider additional methods -- it would be nice, for instance, to get a
list of media files already on the server. But one thing at a time is best. This is the important first step.
