#25 Optimize for big xml messages

[Gaetano Giunta]

In xmlrpc.inc:

• serializedata: avoid emitting <string> tags for
  string vals, as per the spec it's optional:

                  case $xmlrpcBoolean:
                      $rs.="<${typ}>" . ($val ? '1' : '0') . "</${typ}>";
                      break;
                  case $xmlrpcString:
                      // G. Giunta 2004/076/18: strings do not need
  

  an xml tag:
  // Go for reduced size of serialized objects
  //$rs.="<${typ}>" . htmlspecialchars($val).
  "";
  $rs.=htmlspecialchars($val);
  break;
  default:
  $rs.="<${typ}>${val}";

• xmlrpc_ee: build a shorter string to be later eval'd
  to rebuild the xmlrpcval objects from parsed xml: use
  the default property of the second parameter for the
  xmlrpcval constructor

      case 'VALUE':
          // deal with a string value
          if (strlen($_xh[$parser]['ac'])>0 &&
              $_xh[$parser]['vt']==$xmlrpcString)
          {
              $_xh[$parser]['st'].='"'. $_xh[$parser]['ac'] . '"'; 
          }
          // This if() detects if no scalar was inside
  

  <VALUE></VALUE>
  // and pads an empty ''.

if($_xh[$parser]['st'][strlen($_xh[$parser]['st'])-1]
== '(')
{
$_xh[$parser]['st'].= '""';
}
// G. Giunta 2004/06/17 save some chars
in the reconstruction string...
if ($_xh[$parser]['vt'] != 'string')
$_xh[$parser]['st'].=", '" .
$_xh[$parser]['vt'] . "')";
else
$_xh[$parser]['st'].=")";

            if ($_xh[$parser]['cm'])
            {
                $_xh[$parser]['st'].=',';
            }

Partly implemented in CVS.
For changing the XML text created for xmlrpc values it is
advisable to wait for the next version (bigger bump in the
version number)
