Class Details

[line 70]
XML_RPC Backend class. The backend is responsible for the actual execution of a request, as well as payload encoding and decoding.

The only external usage of this class is when explicitely setting the backend, as in

  XML_RPC2_Backend::setBackend('php');

  // or
  XML_RPC2_Backend::setBackend('xmlrpcext');

Note that if you do not explicitely set the backend, it will be selected automatically.

Internally, this class provides methods to obtain the relevant backend classes:

The server class
The client class
The value class

setBackend [line 98]

void setBackend(
string
$backend)

Backend setter.

Currently, two backends exist: 'php' and 'XMLRPCext'. The PHP backend has no external dependencies, while the xmlrpcext requires the xmlrpc extension.

The XMLRPCext backend is quite faster, and will be automatically selected when no explicit backend has been set and the extension is available.

Access: public

Parameters:

string $backend — The backend to select. Either 'php' or 'XMLRPCext'.
