NAME

XML::RPC::Enc::LibXML - Encode/decode XML-RPC using LibXML

SYNOPSIS

use XML::RPC::Fast;
use XML::RPC::Enc::LibXML;

my $rpc = XML::RPC::Fast->new(
    $uri,
    encoder => XML::RPC::Enc::LibXML->new(
        # internal_encoding currently not implemented, always want wide chars
        internal_encoding => undef,
        external_encoding => 'windows-1251',
    )
);

$rpc->registerType( base64 => sub {
    my $node = shift;
    return MIME::Base64::decode($node->textContent);
});

$rpc->registerType( 'dateTime.iso8601' => sub {
    my $node = shift;
    return DateTime::Format::ISO8601->parse_datetime($node->textContent);
});

$rpc->registerClass( DateTime => sub {
    return ( 'dateTime.iso8601' => $_[0]->strftime('%Y%m%dT%H%M%S.%3N%z') );
});

$rpc->registerClass( DateTime => sub {
    my $node = XML::LibXML::Element->new('dateTime.iso8601');
    $node->appendText($_[0]->strftime('%Y%m%dT%H%M%S.%3N%z'));
    return $node;
});

DESCRIPTION

Default encoder/decoder for XML::RPC::Fast

If MIME::Base64 is installed, decoder for XML-RPC type base64 will be setup

If DateTime::Format::ISO8601 is installed, decoder for XML-RPC type dateTime.iso8601 will be setup

Also will be setup by default encoders for Class::Date and DateTime (will be encoded as dateTime.iso8601)

Ty avoid default decoders setup:

BEGIN {
    $XML::RPC::Enc::LibXML::TYPES{base64} = 0;
    $XML::RPC::Enc::LibXML::TYPES{'dateTime.iso8601'} = 0;
}
use XML::RPC::Enc::LibXML;

Q: What is the legal syntax (and range) for integers? How to deal with leading zeros? Is a leading plus sign allowed? How to deal with whitespace?

A: An integer is a 32-bit signed number. You can include a plus or minus at the beginning of a string of numeric characters. Leading zeros are collapsed. Whitespace is not permitted. Just numeric characters preceeded by a plus or minus.

Q: What is the legal syntax (and range) for floating point values (doubles)? How is the exponent represented? How to deal with whitespace? Can infinity and "not a number" be represented?

A: There is no representation for infinity or negative infinity or "not a number". At this time, only decimal point notation is allowed, a plus or a minus, followed by any number of numeric characters, followed by a period and any number of numeric characters. Whitespace is not allowed. The range of allowable values is implementation-dependent, is not specified.

# int

'-0' => 0
