[Fofredux-devel] fofr web service

[Kevin <ke...@dr...>]

Team,
    XML-RPC and JSON-RPC support is in place.  I added phpxmlrpc for the 
server side and jsolait for the javascript client.

I added a temporary link to the top menu to demonstrate it working.  
"Send a ping to web service".

To add more methods you just need edit the files in lib/api/.
* rpc_map.php defines the method signature.
* rpc_methods.php defines the method/function implementation.


The javascript generator is fairly limited.  It doesn't like periods in 
the names of rpc methods  Also, it defaults to do synchronous method 
calls.  For event handling, I know this is not good.   In order to do an 
async json-rpc call, you have to pass a function as the last argument to 
the method.  It will automatically switch to async mode and use that 
function argument as the callback for the response.

Cheers,
    Kevin
