module ActionWebService # :nodoc:
  module Client # :nodoc:

    # Implements XML-RPC client support
    #
    # ==== Example Usage
    #
    #   class BloggerAPI < ActionWebService::API::Base
    #     inflect_names false
    #     api_method :getRecentPosts, :returns => [[Blog::Post]]
    #   end
    #
    #   blog = ActionWebService::Client::XmlRpc.new(BloggerAPI, "http://.../RPC", :handler_name => "blogger")
    #   posts = blog.getRecentPosts
    class XmlRpc < Base

      # Creates a new web service client using the XML-RPC protocol.
      #
      # +api+ must be an ActionWebService::API::Base derivative, and
      # +endpoint_uri+ must point at the relevant URL to which protocol requests
      # will be sent with HTTP POST.
      #
      # Valid options:
      # [<tt>:handler_name</tt>]    If the remote server defines its services inside special
      #                             handler (the Blogger API uses a <tt>"blogger"</tt> handler name for example),
      #                             provide it here, or your method calls will fail
      def initialize(api, endpoint_uri, options={})
        @api = api

        @client = XMLRPC::Client.new2(endpoint_uri, options[:proxy], options[:timeout])
