[phpxmlrpc] Read the XML File

[Gaetano Giunta]

Sorry, but I think you should really start by reading the manual (it is ver=
y complete and informative) and take a look at all the code examples that a=
re part of the download.

As a php developer, the php error message you receive would tell me that th=
e $data_to_be_saved variable is not what you expect it to be (namely an xml=
rpcval object), so, in order to debug the code I would just add this line:
var_dump($data_to_be_saved);
to find out what is going on.

To spare you the trouble of doing it, I can tell you that $resp->serialize(=
) returns a string (the xml representation of the response), while $resp->v=
alue() returns the value received as xmlrpcval object.

Bye
Gaetano

  hi

        Thank u very much.

  $data_to_be_saved =3D $resp->serialize();

  It is show the full result.

  But I try to get some particular value like

   $struct =3D $data_to_be_saved->value();
   $sumval =3D $struct->structmem('sum');
   $sum =3D $sumval->scalarval();

   I got following error

    Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in  "$struct =3D=
 $data_to_be_saved->value()";

  How i receive  the particular value.

  Thanks in advance.

    If what you need is to save the responses received from the server as x=
ml, you have two options:

    1- use the serialize() method on the response object.

    $resp =3D $client->send($msg);
    if (!$resp->faultCode())
      $data_to_be_saved =3D $resp->serialize();
      etc...

    Note that this will not be 100% accurate, since the xml generated by th=
e response object can be different from the xml received, especially if the=
re is some character set conversion involved, or such (eg. if you receive a=
n empty string tag as <string/>, serialize() will output <string></string>)=
, or if the server sent back as response something invalid (in which case t=
he xml generated client side using serialize() wil correspond to the error =
response generated internally by the lib)


    2 - set the client object to return the raw xml received instead of the=
 decoded objects:

    $client =3D new xmlrpc_client($whatever);
    $client->return_type =3D 'xml'
    $resp =3D $client->send($msg);
    if (!$resp->faultCode())
      $data_to_be_saved =3D $resp->value();
      etc...

    Note that using this method the xml response response will not be parse=
d at all by the library, only the http commuincation will be checked. This =
means that xmlrpc responses sent by the server that would have generated an=
 error response on the client (eg. malformed xml, responses that have fault=
code/faultmsg set, etc...) now.

    Hope this helps
    Gaetano
