XML-RPC is a quick-and-easy way to make procedure calls over the Internet. It converts the procedure call into XML document, sends it to a remote server using HTTP, and gets back the response as XML. Due to the complexity of XML, this invariably leads to buggy code. XML-RPC should never be used without total trust on both sides of the connection. XML-RPC should never be used on non-authentified channels. This library provides a modular implementation of XML-RPC for C and C++. XML-RPC For C and C++ is designed for Unix and is most tested on unix. The authors of the software thinks it works on any standard unix, but the code is rather sloppy and needs quite a few patches to run correctly on OpenBSD. Do not trust it for anything important. This package mostly exist to facilitate running code that occasionally wants xmlrpc, such as cmake.
