Bug #14521 Updated: XMLRPC extension: wrong results?

If he wishes to pass the array as the first argument (as the receiving method seems to want) then he should create a wrapper array, eg: $params = array(array('bob', 'kim')); Note also that if the receiving function simply prints params instead of the first param, then it will print the array as passed.$data array he is passing in is actually the xmlrpc top level params list.

It works when I send an integer, or a string, or an associative array. However, it fails on a non-indexed array. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug in the extension? I hope it's me, because this extension is pretty damn cool. :) - Colin The script: <?php function method_echo($method, $params) { $foo = array_pop($params); return $foo; } /* this is the test data to send */ $data = array('bob','kim'); echo "<h1>Request</h1>"; echo "<xmp>"; var_dump($data); echo "</xmp>"; $server = xmlrpc_server_create(); xmlrpc_server_register_method($server, 'method_echo', 'method_echo'); $request_xml = xmlrpc_encode_request('method_echo', $data ); $response = xmlrpc_server_call_method($server, $request_xml, NULL, array( 'output_type' => 'php' ) ); echo "<h1>Result</h1>"; echo "<xmp>"; var_dump($response); echo "</xmp>"; xmlrpc_server_destroy($server); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=14521&edit=1
