Apache XML-RPC

Apache XML-RPC is a Java implementation of XML-RPC , a popular protocol that uses XML over HTTP to implement remote procedure calls.

Version 3 of Apache XML-RPC is still compliant to the XML-RPC specification . However, the user may enable several vendor extensions are available, that greatly extend the power of XML-RPC:

   * All primitive Java types are supported, including long, byte, short, and double.
   * Calendar objects are supported. In particular, timezone settings, and milliseconds may be sent.
   * DOM nodes, or JAXB objects, can be transmitted. So are objects implementing the java.io.Serializable interface.
   * Both server and client can operate in a streaming mode, which preserves resources much better than the default mode, which is based on large internal byte arrays.
