Hi all
I spotted a minor bug in the documentation to SimpleXMLRPCServer. It
does not seem worth getting a login to the bugtracker just to enter
this, so if it is confirmed as a bug perhaps someone would be so kind
as to enter it for me.
Background:
xmlrpclib.py has the following -
# This class is available as ServerProxy and Server. New code
should
# use ServerProxy, to avoid confusion.
#
...
class ServerProxy:
...
Server = ServerProxy
The bug:
Section 18.25.1 SimpleXMLRPCServer Objects
...
Example:
...
The following client code will call the methods made available by
the preceding server:
import xmlrpclib
s = xmlrpclib.Server('http://localhost:8000')
It should say:
s = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:8000')
As I said, it is minor, but it had me confused for a couple of
minutes, as there is no class called Server in the documentation for
xmlrpclib itself.
It present in the 2.5 and the 2.6 docs.
Thanks
Frank Millman
