[jira] [Created] (XMLRPC-195) StringSerializer does not create tag

Gokulakrishnan created XMLRPC-195:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: StringSerializer does not create <string> tag
                 Key: XMLRPC-195
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLRPC-195
             Project: XML-RPC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Releases
    Affects Versions: 3.1.3
         Environment: Windows 7
            Reporter: Gokulakrishnan
            Priority: Critical


Consider a method call (API) named 'login' that takes in 4 parameters major version (integer), minor version (integer), user name (string) and password (string). Below code snippet explains how I invoke this remote API.

XmlRpcClient client = new XmlRpcClient();
Object[] loginParams = {new Integer(2), new Integer(0), new String("user@sample.com"), new String("password")};
client.execute("login", loginParams);

The four parameters are wrapped as Object array to method call named 'login'. Below is the XML generated and passed to server hosting login API:

<methodCall>
  <methodName>login</methodName>
  <params>
    <param>
      <value>
        <i4>2</i4>
      </value>
    </param>
    <param>
      <value>
        <i4>0</i4>
      </value>
    </param>
    <param>
      <value>
        user@sample.com
      </value>
    </param>
    <param>
      <value>
        password
      </value>
    </param>
  </params>
</methodCall>

As you notice the user name - user@sample.com and password - password are serialized without '<string>' tag. Is this intentional. I referred the code StringSerializer and noticed that '<string>' tag is not passed to write method. By XML-RPC specification http://xmlrpc.scripting.com/spec it should have been:
:
<value>
 <string>
  user@sample.com
 </string>
</value>
:

Any specific reason for this change in behavior ?

[jira] [Commented] (XMLRPC-195) StringSerializer does not create tag

Posted by "Jochen Wiedmann (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLRPC-195?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13501116#comment-13501116 ] 

Jochen Wiedmann commented on XMLRPC-195:
----------------------------------------

Quoting from the XML-RPC specification that you have referenced yourself below:

    If no type is indicated, the type is string.

In other words: What Apache XML-RPC does, is a perfectly valid behaviour and the error (if any) is on the side of the software which doesn't deal with that properly.

 A Google search for "Apache XML RPC string tag" quickly reveals possibly workarounds, as detailed in the Apache XML RPC FAQ:

http://www.google.de/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&cad=rja&ved=0CC8QFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fapache-xml.6118.n7.nabble.com%2FAdding-lt-string-gt-tag-in-XML-RPC-3-1-td29255.html&ei=hmmrUIWSB4nHswaqr4HoCg&usg=AFQjCNFaJwfP155CYYU4xzFrtweumv_V1Q

Closing this as "not a bug".
