Introduction
This package provides a simple XML-RPC client and server for C# applications. It's pure C#, using .Net for networking and XML functionality.
What separates this from XML-RPC.Net? This is much lower tech, no required attributes, no proxies, no IIS.
Features
- full xmlrpc.org spec implementation basic client (XmlRpcRequest)
- Embedded server (XmlRpcServer)
- Introspection System object (XmlRpcSystemObject) optional XML-RPC specific method access attribute over and above C#'s "public" (XmlRpcExposedAttribute)
Prerequisites To build
- Have a new .NET SDK loaded Have csc and friends in your PATH.
- Put nant/bin into your PATH. nant is an OpenSource C# build tool, binaries included in ./nant, or see http://nant.sourceforge.net
To Build
In a command shell:nant
Basic Test
Open two command shells, in one:server
In the other:client
Sample Code
Under src/samples there are examples. There is a simple server, a simple client, an example using the system object remotely and a server using the optional XmlRpcExposed attribute.
To Do
- Standard Fault codes
- Better exception handling
- Support the rest of XML-RPC "system" Object
- boxcaring
- capabilities
- Documentation
- Threading/performance
- optimize
- Test with Mono

I've tried to install this, and followed the instructions and it just doesn't work. Firstly the instruction don't reflect the folder structure, so I'm really unsure what to do next, there's not an obvious why to find any solution.
