#
# XML-RPC CLIENT LIBRARY
# $Id$
#
# 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 is designed to work with Python 1.5.2 or newer.
# unicode encoding support requires at least Python 1.6.
# experimental HTTPS requires Python 2.0 built with SSL sockets.
# expat parser support requires Python 2.0 with pyexpat support.
#
# 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 parsers/transports (0.9.8)
# 2000-11-28 fl Changed boolean to check the truth value of its argument
# 2001-02-24 fl Added encoding/Unicode/SafeTransport patches
# 2001-02-26 fl Added compare support to wrappers (0.9.9/1.0b1)
# 2001-03-28 fl Make sure response tuple is a singleton
# 2001-03-29 fl Don't require empty params element (from Nicholas Riley)
# 2001-06-10 fl Folded in _xmlrpclib accelerator support (1.0b2)
# 2001-08-20 fl Base xmlrpclib.Error on built-in Exception (from Paul Prescod)
# 2001-09-03 fl Allow Transport subclass to override getparser
# 2001-09-10 fl Lazy import of urllib, cgi, xmllib (20x import speedup)
# 2001-10-01 fl Remove containers from memo cache when done with them
# 2001-10-01 fl Use faster escape method (80% dumps speedup)
# 2001-10-10 sm Allow long ints to be passed as ints if they don't overflow
# 2001-10-17 sm test for int and long overflow (allows use on 64-bit systems)
# 2001-11-12 fl Use repr() to marshal doubles (from Paul Felix)

An XML-RPC client interface for Python.
The marshalling and response parser code can also be used to
implement XML-RPC servers.
Exported exceptions:
Error Base class for client errors
ProtocolError Indicates an HTTP protocol error
ResponseError Indicates a broken response package
Fault Indicates an XML-RPC fault package
Exported classes:
ServerProxy Represents a logical connection to an XML-RPC server
Boolean boolean wrapper to generate a "boolean" XML-RPC value
DateTime dateTime wrapper for an ISO 8601 string or time tuple or
localtime integer value to generate a "dateTime.iso8601"
XML-RPC value
Binary binary data wrapper
SlowParser Slow but safe standard parser (based on xmllib)
Marshaller Generate an XML-RPC params chunk from a Python data structure
Unmarshaller Unmarshal an XML-RPC response from incoming XML event message
Transport Handles an HTTP transaction to an XML-RPC server
SafeTransport Handles an HTTPS transaction to an XML-RPC server
Exported constants:
True
False
Exported functions:
boolean Convert any Python value to an XML-RPC boolean
getparser Create instance of the fastest available parser & attach
to an unmarshalling object
dumps Convert an argument tuple or a Fault instance to an XML-RPC
request (or response, if the methodresponse option is used).
loads Convert an XML-RPC packet to unmarshalled data plus a method
name (None if not present).
