Re: Implementating Multithreading or Forking with XMLRPC C server

Bryan thanks 
I have my client.c written as below where im passing an array of 
string 

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

#include <xmlrpc-c/base.h>
#include <xmlrpc-c/client.h>

#include "config.h"  /* information about this build environment */

#define NAME "Xmlrpc-c Test Client"
#define VERSION "1.0"

static void 
die_if_fault_occurred (xmlrpc_env *env) {
    if (env->fault_occurred) {
        fprintf(stderr, "XML-RPC Fault: %s (%d)\n",
                env->fault_string, env->fault_code);
        exit(1);
    }
}



int 
main(int           const argc, 
     const char ** const argv ATTR_UNUSED) {

    xmlrpc_env env;
    xmlrpc_value *result;
   // xmlrpc_int32 sum;
    char * const serverUrl = "http://localhost:12000/RPC2";
    char * const methodName = "count.entities";
    xmlrpc_value * array;
    size_t len=12, i;


    /* added by Amit */
	const char * employeeName[5] = {"Amit"};
    if (argc-1 > 0) {
        fprintf(stderr, "This program has no arguments\n");
        exit(1);
    }

    /* Initialize our error-handling environment. */
    xmlrpc_env_init(&env);

    /* Start up our XML-RPC client library. */
    xmlrpc_client_init2(&env, XMLRPC_CLIENT_NO_FLAGS, NAME, VERSION, 
NULL, 0);
    die_if_fault_occurred(&env);

    printf("Making XMLRPC call to server url '%s' method '%s' "
           "to request the array "
           "of strings...\n", serverUrl, methodName);

    /* Make the remote procedure call */
    result = xmlrpc_client_call(&env, serverUrl, methodName,"(A)", 
&array );
    die_if_fault_occurred(&env);
    
    /* Get our array and print it out. */
    xmlrpc_read_int(&env, result, &array);
    die_if_fault_occurred(&env);

    printf("The array  is %s\n, %s\n , %s\n ", result);
    
    /* Dispose of our result value. */
    xmlrpc_DECREF(result);

    /* Clean up our error-handling environment. */
    xmlrpc_env_clean(&env);
    
    /* Shutdown our XML-RPC client library. */
    xmlrpc_client_cleanup();

    return 0;
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------
also in the server side Im not sure how to modify the code for the 
server side , What I got so far is 
static xmlrpc_value *
easy_struct(xmlrpc_env *   const env,
            xmlrpc_value * const param_array,
            void *         const user_data ATTR_UNUSED) {

    xmlrpc_int32 larry, moe, curly;
fprintf(stderr,"I-flex - easy struct suresh\n");

    /* Parse our argument array and get the stooges. */
    xmlrpc_decompose_value(env, param_array, "({s:i,s:i,s:i,*})",
                           "larry", &larry,
                           "moe", &moe,
                           "curly", &curly);
    //RETURN_IF_FAULT(env);

    /* Return our result. */
    return xmlrpc_build_value(env, "i", larry + moe + curly);
}

------------------------------------------------------------------

Bryan can you please guide me in the right direction
Thanks for time and help
Amit
