What is the best Javascript XML-RPC client library in your opinion and why?
I'am making a JQuery app and I need to communicate with my xmlrpc server with it.
Found following libraries, but I have no idea what are their pros and cons:
http://www.zentus.com/js/xmlrpc.js.html
http://www.scottandrew.com/xml-rpc/
http://phpxmlrpc.sourceforge.net/jsxmlrpc/
http://www.vcdn.org/Public/XMLRPC/
http://mimic-xmlrpc.sourceforge.net/

There is a Google-hosted library here: http://code.google.com/p/json-xml-rpc/.
ReplyDeleteIt supports both XML-RPC and JSON-RPC for JavaScript, and asynchronous as well as synchronous requests. I'm about to try out the XML-RPC for JavaScript myself with a JQuery UI and will update this based on my findings.
I have tried http://www.zentus.com/js/xmlrpc.js.html myself. It has problems parsing the result in FireFox and Chrome, parsing the result in IE worked fine.
ReplyDeleteI have not tried the others, but 'mimic' looks great (if it works).
For my own problem, I've switched to JSON instead of XMLRPC.
The protocol is rather easy, are you sure you need a library at all? Maybe just send the XML the protocol requires?
ReplyDeleteAdding a library to the list. I found this one quite easy to use, although I haven't tried all of the others that are mentioned.
