I am trying to implement Xen API (server side) and test it using Citrix
Java Bindings (version 5.5). I have a question regarding API fields of
type 'int' such as host.API_version_minor and host.API_version_major.
Using Citrix Java Bindings when I request host.get_API_version_major, I
think my server response comes back ok, but the SDK Java client is not
able to parse it.
Below is the XML request/response.
Request using Citrix Java client :
<methodCall>
<methodName>host.get_API_version_major
</methodName>
<params>
<param>
<value>trjp19gne05edqnajbgmpc6me5</value>
</param>
<param>
<value>host:023</value>
</param>
</params>
</methodCall>
My server's response:
<methodResponse>
<params>
<param>
<value>
<struct>
<member>
<name>Status</name>
<value>Success</value>
</member>
<member>
<name>Value</name>
<value>
<i4>1</i4>
</value>
</member>
</struct>
</value>
</param>
</params>
</methodResponse>
But Citrix Java client is not able to parse this response. I get the
error
[java] java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Integer cannot be
cast to java.lang.String
[java] at com.xensource.xenapi.Types.toLong(Types.java:6559)

[java] at RunTests.main(RunTests.java:114)
Also looking at the SDK Java client code, it treats these 'int' fields
as Long.
Interestingly if I implement those 'int' type fields as String in my
server, then the SDK Java client is happy. However that's not the
correct implementation for fields of type 'int'.
Any help would be much appreciated.
