\title{Create an instance of an XMLRPCServer object}
\description{
The \code{XMLRPCServer} class is a means to
identify a string as the URL of an XML-RPC server.
We can then use this to invoke a method provided
by the server either via a call to \code{\link{xml.rpc}}
or via an expression of the form
\code{server$methodName(arg1, arg2, ...)}.
The \code{XMLRPCServerConnection} class allows us to
associate a \code{CURLHandle} object with an XML-RPC
server. This connection is then used in each of the
calls to that server. This allows us to reuse a single
curl connection to the server and also slightly simplifies
passing it to each call.
}
\usage{
XMLRPCServer(url, curl = NULL, class = if (!is.null(curl)) "XMLRPCServerConnection" else "XMLRPCServer", ..., .opts = list(...))
}
\arguments{
\item{url}{the URL for the XML-RPC server.}
\item{curl}{either a logical value indicating whether to create
a new \code{CURLHandle} object, or
an instance of a \code{CURLHandle} or alternatively
\code{NULL}. If CURL options are specified
via the \code{\dots} or \code{.opts} parameters,
then a CURL handle is automatically created using these.
}
\item{class}{the name of the class to create.}
\item{\dots}{name=value pairs of CURL options that are used to create a
new \code{CURLHandle} object.}
\item{.opts}{an alternative way to specify the CURL options for the
handle to be created.}
}
\value{
An object of class given by the value of \code{class}.
