# Provides remote procedure calls to a XML-RPC server.

# After setting the connection-parameters with XMLRPC::Client.new which
# creates a new XMLRPC::Client instance, you can execute a remote procedure
# by sending the XMLRPC::Client#call or XMLRPC::Client#call2
# message to this new instance.
#
# The given parameters indicate which method to call on the remote-side and
# of course the parameters for the remote procedure.

# given +host+. If the server is CGI-based, +path+ is the
# path to the CGI-script, which will be called, otherwise (in the
# case of a standalone server) +path+ should be "/RPC2".
# +port+ is the port on which the XML-RPC server listens.
#
# If +proxy_host+ is given, then a proxy server listening at
# +proxy_host+ is used. +proxy_port+ is the port of the
# proxy server.

# Default values for +host+, +path+ and +port+ are 'localhost', '/RPC2' and
# '80' respectively using SSL '443'.
#
# If +user+ and +password+ are given, each time a request is sent,
# an Authorization header is sent. Currently only Basic Authentication is
# implemented, no Digest.
#
# If +use_ssl+ is set to +true+, communication over SSL is enabled.
#
# Parameter +timeout+ is the time to wait for a XML-RPC response, defaults to 30.

# Invokes the method named +method+ with the parameters given by
# +args+ on the XML-RPC server.
#
# The +method+ parameter is converted into a String and should
# be a valid XML-RPC method-name.
#
# Each parameter of +args+ must be of one of the following types,
# where Hash, Struct and Array can contain any of these listed _types_:
#
# * Fixnum, Bignum
# * TrueClass, FalseClass, +true+, +false+
# * String, Symbol
# * Float
# * Hash, Struct
# * Array
# * Date, Time, XMLRPC::DateTime
# * XMLRPC::Base64
# * A Ruby object which class includes XMLRPC::Marshallable
# (only if Config::ENABLE_MARSHALLABLE is +true+).
# That object is converted into a hash, with one additional key/value
# pair ___class___
which contains the class name
# for restoring that object later.
#
# The method returns the return-value from the Remote Procedure Call.
#
# The type of the return-value is one of the types shown above.
#
# A Bignum is only allowed when it fits in 32-bit. A XML-RPC
# +dateTime.iso8601+ type is always returned as a XMLRPC::DateTime object.
# Struct is never returned, only a Hash, the same for a Symbol, where as a
# String is always returned. XMLRPC::Base64 is returned as a String from
# xmlrpc4r version 1.6.1 on.
#
# If the remote procedure returned a fault-structure, then a
# XMLRPC::FaultException exception is raised, which has two accessor-methods
# +faultCode+ an Integer, and +faultString+ a String.
