I have a XMLPRC client that works well under TCP and I am now trying to get it to work under Multicast conditions.
Here is the "TCP" code I used:
class StorageService(internet.TCPServer): def __init__(self,tcpPort,configInfo): r = StoragePeer(configInfo) xmlrpc.addIntrospection(r) internet.TCPServer.__init__(self,tcpPort,server.Site(r))
I changed the call to TCPServer to:
class StorageService(internet.TCPServer): def __init__(self,tcpPort,configInfo): r = StoragePeer(configInfo) xmlrpc.addIntrospection(r) internet.MulticastServer.__init__(self,tcpPort,server.Site(r))
I thought this would work since, but it doesn't. What I get returned is the following error message:
Failed to load application: unbound method __init__() must be called with MulticastServer instance as first argument (got StorageService instance instead)
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
The immediate mistake you are making is trying to call an unbound method from one class with a self argument which is an instance of an unrelated class. This is not allowed in Python. The overall mistake you are making is trying to use XML-RPC over multicast. This does not work. Perhaps something like XML-RPC could be made to run over multicast, but it would be a much larger undertaking than just using MulticastServer in place of TCPServer. Jean-Paul
