#6 Some much needed documentation

[Jakob Eriksson]

Specifically:

http://phpxmlrpc.sourceforge.net/doc-2/ch11s02.html

Multicall calls. I am guessing you can get several answers in one request and one socket opening.

This is probably a very nice optimisation sometimes.

Also:
docxmlrpcs.inc and some other files are missing in my
installation? Why?

I downloaded xmlrpc-2.2.1.tar.gz from sourceforge, and these files are not in there.

Please advice or update documentation.

It seems you can do a lot of stuff, but when you download the archive, you really can not.

regards,
Jakob

"Multicall calls. I am guessing you can get several answers in one request and one socket opening."

Sure enough. Please take a look at the doc page for xmlrpc_client methods: http://phpxmlrpc.sourceforge.net/doc-2/ch07s03.html#id528668
Also see the example provided in demo/client/introspect.php

"docxmlrpcs.inc and some other files are missing in my installation. Why?"

Because they are part of the "extras" package, that you have to download separately.
Sorry if that is not clear enough, but I could not find reference to that specific file neither in the online doc nor in the demo files that ship with the std distribution.

All in all, I strive to provide the best documentation possible (and the fact that it is available online, in the std distribution and both as html and pdf should attest to that), but my time is limited, and I am currently the only active developer. Any contribution is welcome - after all, the xml source to the documentation is available to everybody via cvs...
