Can we send and recieve a float?

[Nelson A. Cysneros]

Can we send and recieve floats with XML-RPC?

My XML-RPC server is trying to recieve a flot but my code won't even compile.
at this line:

float value           = (float) params[0]["VALUE"];

Thanks for your help

Entire method code:

class passFloat : public XmlRpcServerMethod
{
public:
  passFloat(XmlRpcServer* s) : XmlRpcServerMethod("passFloat", s) {}

  void execute(XmlRpcValue& params, XmlRpcValue& result)
  {
    float value =0;
    //Get  Value
    if(params[0].hasMember("VALUE")){
         value           = (float) params[0]["VALUE"];
         std::cout<<"passFloat recieved this from client: "<<value<<"\n"<<std::endl;
    }
    else
        return;
   
    result["VALUE"] = "CPPServer: Thanks we got your Float";
  }
} passFloat(&s);
