Raymond Hettinger <rhettin...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:
>>> x = decimal.Decimal('9999999999999.11111111111111')
>>> c.dumps(x,), 'whatever')
"<?xml
version='1.0'?>\n<methodCall>\n<methodName>whatever</methodName>\n<params>\n<param>\n<value><double>9999999999999.11111111111111</double></value>\n</param>\n</params>\n</methodCall>\n"
That's what I though you meant and I don't think it is wise. The RPC spec is
all about interoperability. The <double> tag means "double-precision signed
floating point number" so what you're proposing an implicit type conversion
(i.e. the client sends a decimal and the server receives a float).
