Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-02 21:07:51] giunta dot gaetano at gmail dot com Description: ------------ "Sets xmlrpc type, base64 or datetime, for a PHP string value" is fine, but a couple more details would be better off in the official docs than in the comments: + only valid values for $type are 'datetime' and 'base64' + when setting type to base64, the encoding process is carried out by the function, the user does not need to do the base64 encoding on its own + the type-setting process changes the string variable upon which it acts, converting it in fact (when successful) in an anonymous object + if conversion process fails, the function returns false, so it is easy to check if it worked before calling xmlrpc_encode() on the data ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42190&edit=1
