The missing docs
2nd September 2002
Yet more XML-RPC goodness. The documentation for the suggested introspection methods throws a 404, but Google’s cache doesn’t:
- system.listMethods
- system.methodSignature
- system.methodHelp
- Introspection: Discovering Server APIs (thanks Mark)
I’ll be adding these to my library as soon as I get a chance. Tonight though I’ll be working on IncDirectory.
