The server example in the docs works for me with one correction: ## cgi-bin/xmlrpc.py from SimpleXMLRPCServer import CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler class MyFuncs: def div(self, x, y) : return x // y handler = CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler() handler.register_function(pow) handler.register_function(lambda x,y: x+y, 'add') handler.register_introspection_functions() handler.register_instance(MyFuncs()) handler.handle_request() ## Run a simple CGI server by opening a command line to the parent dir of cgi-bin and running python -c "import CGIHTTPServer; CGIHTTPServer.test()" ## >From the command line: >>> import xmlrpclib >>> server = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://localhost:8000/cgi-bin/xmlrpc.py") >>> server.system.listMethods() ['add', 'div', 'pow', 'system.listMethods', 'system.methodHelp', 'system.methodSignature'] >>> server.add(1, 2) 3 >>> server.pow(2, 10) 1024 Using Python 2.4.1 on Windows 2000 Kent _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
