[phpxmlrpc] Producing a struct with XML_RPC_Value?

[Jonas Petersson]

Dear phpxmlrpc gurus,

May I ask for you advice? I'm trying to produce a request like this one:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<methodCall>
<methodName>help</methodName>
<params>
<param><value><struct>
<member><name>HELP</name><value><string></string></value></member>
<member><name>rpc_key</name><value><string>MYSECRETKEY</string></value></member>

</struct></value>
</param>
</params>
</methodCall>


...from php (the above comes from a perl script). However, I can't
figure out how to massage my params variable to produce this. Here is
one of my recent tries...


$params = array(new XML_RPC_Value("HELP", "string"),
array(new XML_RPC_VALUE("rpc_key") =>
new XML_RPC_Value("MYSECRETKEY", "string")));
$msg = new XML_RPC_Message('help', $params);
$cli = new XML_RPC_Client('/xmlrpc','http://www.upcdatabase.com');
$cli->setDebug(1);
$resp = $cli->send($msg);

As you can guess, this fails miserably. Presumably I'm doing something
very stupid, being a novice on this.

Many thanks in advance / Jonas

PS. Yes I'm using the upc database and they just adjusted their API to
require this rpc_key - previously it worked fine being open to the world.

array(new XML_RPC_VALUE("rpc_key") =>
new XML_RPC_Value("MYSECRETKEY", "string"))), 'struct' ) );


or something to that effect: an array containing 1 single param, of type struct
