Jochen Wiedmann commented on XMLRPC-75:
---------------------------------------

>From your comment, I conclude that

a) there are implementations in other languages, which do similar things and 
that
b) it is based on introspection

As for a), I still do miss a description what does happen. The links you 
mention above are much more generic and no specifications or something similar. 
As for b), the existing DefaultHandler is based on reflection itself.

In other words, I do not have the feeling to know more.

> I've taken Aaron Hamid's Introspection patch (which was in turn derived from 
> the one here: 
> http://xmlrpc-c.sourceforge.net/hacks/helma-xmlrpc-introspection.diff ) and 
> basically rewritten it to work with the current XML-RPC library.
> I tried to set it up so that it followed the existing coding style as much as 
> possible, and would not break any existing applications.  For example, when I 
> needed a list of handlers supported by a particular mapping, I added a new 
> interface XmlRpcListableHandlerMapping that provides this information, made 
> the default handler implement it, and designed my code so that if it were not 
> implemented by a handler in use, everything  would work except the 
> system.listMethods functionality that relies on it.
> I hope you will be able to integrate this code into the next version of the 
> library; please contact me with any questions or issues.  I will be attaching 
> the patch to this issue if I can so that the problem with his previous patch 
> will not occur.
