<h2>Overview</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>LuaXMLRPC is a library to make remote procedure calls using <a
|
|
|
|
href="http://www.xmlrpc.com">XML-RPC</a>. It also offers facilities
|
|
|
|
to develop server-side software.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>LuaXMLRPC provides a simple API and an abstraction layer over
|
|
|
|
XML avoiding manipulation of string representation of data
|
|
|
|
structures. It also offers ways to express everything when
|
|
|
|
needed.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
2004-12-02 15:50:39 +00:00
|
|
|
<p>LuaXMLRPC is free software and uses the same
|
|
|
|
<a href="license.html">license</a> as Lua 5.0.</p>

<p>Version 1.0 beta follows the
|
|
|
|
<a href="http://www.keplerproject.org/compat">package proposal</a>
|
|
|
|
for Lua 5.1 (see section <a href="#installation">Installation</a>

|

for more details).</p>

<h2>Installation</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
2004-12-02 15:50:39 +00:00
|
|
|
<p>LuaXMLRPC is composed by three Lua files.
|
|
|
|
These files should be
|
2004-11-22 18:35:55 +00:00
|
|
|
copied to a directory named <code>xmlrpc</code> created in your
|
|
|
|
<code>LUA_PATH</code>.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
2004-12-02 15:50:39 +00:00
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
LuaXMLRPC follows the
|
|
|
|
<a href="http://www.keplerproject.org/compat">package proposal</a>
|
|
|
|
for Lua 5.1, therefore this package should be "installed".
|
|
|
|
In other words,
|
|
|
|
if you are using Lua 5.0, the files <tt>compat-5.1.c</tt> and
|
|
|
|
<tt>compat-5.1.h</tt> must be used in the compilation and the file
|
|
|
|
<tt>compat-5.1.lua</tt> must be installed in the <tt>LUA_PATH</tt>.
|
|
|
|
If you are using Lua 5.1, nothing should be done.
