1 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.3.1 - 2018/1/20
3 * fixed: error when using https in non-curl mode
5 * fixed: compatibility of tests with php 7.2
7 * fixed: html injection in sample code
9 * fixed: warnings emitted by the *legacy* server in xmlrpcs.inc
11 * fixed: encoding of php variables of type 'resource' when using xmlrpc_encode in php-compatibility mode
13 * fixed: bad html tag in sample code
15 * improved: text of error messages
18 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.3.0 - 2017/11/6
20 * fixed: compatibility with Basic/Digest/NTLM auth when using client in cURL mode (issue #58)
22 * improved: added unit tests for Basic and Digest http auth. Also improved tests suite
24 * new: allow to force usage of curl for http 1.0 calls, as well as plain socket for https calls, via the method
25 `Client::setUseCurl()`
28 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.2.2 - 2017/10/15
30 * fixed: compatibility with Lighttpd target servers when using client in cURL mode and request body size > 1024 bytes (issue #56)
33 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.2.1 - 2017/9/3
35 * fixed: compatibility with php 7.2 (issue #55)
38 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.2.0 - 2017/6/30
40 * improved: allow also DateTimeImmutable objects to be detected as a date when encoding
43 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.1.1 - 2016/10/1
45 * fixed: error in server class: undefined function php_xmlrpc_encode (only triggered when not using the compatibility
46 shim with old versions)
49 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.1.0 - 2016/6/26
51 * improved: Added support for receiving <I8> and <EX:I8> integers, sending <I8>
53 If php is compiled in 32 bit mode, and an i8 int is received from a 3rd party, and error will be emitted.
54 Integers sent from the library to 3rd parties can be encoded using the i8 tag, but default to using 'int' by default;
55 the developer will have to create values as i8 explicitly if needed.
56 The library does *not* check if an outgoing integer is too big to fit in 4 bytes and convert it to an i8 automatically.
59 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.0.1 - 2016/3/27
61 * improved: all of the API documentation has been moved out of the manual and into the source code phpdoc comments
63 * fixed: when the internal character set is set to UTF-8 and the client sends requests (or the server responses), too
64 many characters were encoded as numeric entities, whereas some, like åäö, needed not not be
66 * fixed: the 'valtyp' property of Response was not present in all cases; the ValType property had been added by error
70 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.0.0 - 2016/1/20
72 This release does away with the past and starts a transition to modern-world php.
74 Code has been heavily refactored, taking care to preserve backwards compatibility as much as possible,
75 but some breackage is to be expected.
77 The minimum required php version has been increased to 5.3, even though we strongly urge you to use
80 PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THE NOTES BELOW to insure a smooth upgrade.
82 * new: introduction of namespaces and full OOP.
84 All php classes have been renamed and moved to separate files.
85 Class autoloading can now be done in accord with the PSR-4 standard.
86 All global variables and global functions have been removed.
87 Iterating over xmlrpc value objects is now easier thank to support for ArrayAccess and Traversable interfaces.
89 Backward compatibility is maintained via lib/xmlrpc.inc, lib/xmlrpcs.inc and lib/xmlrpc_wrappers.inc.
90 For more details, head on to doc/api_changes_v4.md
92 * changed: the default character encoding delivered from the library to your code is now utf8.
93 It can be changed at any time setting a value to PhpXmlRpc\PhpXmlRpc::$xmlrpc_internalencoding
95 * improved: the library now accepts requests/responses sent using other character sets than UTF-8/ISO-8859-1/ASCII.
96 This only works when the mbstring php extension is enabled.
98 * improved: no need to call anymore $client->setSSLVerifyHost(2) to silence a curl warning when using https
99 with recent curl builds
101 * improved: the xmlrpcval class now supports the interfaces Countable and IteratorAggregate
103 * improved: a specific option allows users to decide the version of SSL to use for https calls.
104 This is useful f.e. for the testing suite, when the server target of calls has no proper ssl certificate,
105 and the cURL extension has been compiled with GnuTLS (such as on Travis VMs)
107 * improved: the function wrap_php_function() now can be used to wrap closures (it is now a method btw)
109 * improved: all wrap_something() functions now return a closure by default instead of a function name
111 * improved: debug messages are not html-escaped any more when executing from the command line
113 * improved: the library is now tested using Travis ( https://travis-ci.org/ ).
114 Tests are executed using all php versions from 5.3 to 7.2; code-coverage information
115 is generated using php 5.6 and uploaded to both Code Coverage and Scrutinizer online services
117 * improved: phpunit is now installed via composer, not bundled anymore
119 * improved: when phpunit is used to generate code-coverage data, the code executed server-side is accounted for
121 * improved: the test suite has basic checks for the debugger and demo files
123 * improved: more tests in the test suite
125 * fixed: the server would not reset the user-set debug messages between subsequent service() calls
127 * fixed: the server would not reset previous php error handlers when an exception was thrown by user code and
128 exception_handling set to 2
130 * fixed: the server would fail to decode a request with ISO-8859-1 payload and character set declaration in the xml
133 * fixed: the client would fail to decode a response with ISO-8859-1 payload and character set declaration in the xml
136 * fixed: the function decode_xml() would not decode an xml with character set declaration in the xml prolog
138 * fixed: the client can now successfully call methods using ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8 characters in their name
140 * fixed: the debugger would fail sending a request with ISO-8859-1 payload (it missed the character set declaration).
141 It would have a hard time coping with ISO-8859-1 in other fields, such as e.g. the remote method name
143 * fixed: the debugger would generate a bad payload via the 'load method synopsis' button for signatures containing NULL
144 or undefined parameters
146 * fixed: the debugger would generate a bad payload via the 'load method synopsis' button for methods with multiple
149 * improved: the debugger is displayed using UTF-8, making it more useful to debug any kind of service
151 * improved: echo all debug messages even when there are characters in them which php deems to be in a wrong encoding;
152 previously those messages would just disappear (this is visible e.g. in the debugger)
154 * changed: debug info handling
155 - at debug level 1, the rebuilt php objects are not dumped to screen (server-side already did that)
156 - at debug level 1, curl communication info are not dumped to screen
157 - at debug level 1, the tests echo payloads of failures; at debug level 2 all payloads
159 * improved: makefiles have been replaced with a php_based pakefile
161 * improved: the source for the manual is stored in asciidoc format, which can be displayed natively by GitHub
162 with nice html formatting. Also the HTML version generated by hand and bundled in tarballs is much nicer
163 to look at than previous versions
165 * improved: all php code is now formatted according to the PSR-2 standard
168 XML-RPC for PHP version 3.0.0 - 2014/6/15
170 This release corrects all bugs that have been reported and successfully reproduced since
173 The requirements have increased to php 5.1.0 - which is still way older than what you should be running for any serious
176 It also is the first release to be installable via composer.
178 See the Changelog file or the pdf docs for a complete list of changes.
181 XML-RPC for PHP version 3.0.0 beta - 2009/09/05
183 This is the first release of the library to only support PHP 5.
184 Some legacy code has been removed, and support for features such as exceptions
185 and dateTime objects introduced.
187 The "beta" tag is meant to indicate the fact that the refactoring has been more widespread
188 than in precedent releases and that more changes are likely to be introduced with time -
189 the library is still considered to be production quality.
191 * improved: removed all usage of php functions deprecated in php 5.3, usage of assign-by-ref when creating new objects
193 * improved: add support for the <ex:nil/> tag used by the apache library, both in input and output
194 * improved: add support for dateTime objects in both in php_xmlrpc_encode and as parameter for constructor of xmlrpcval
195 * improved: add support for timestamps as parameter for constructor of xmlrpcval
196 * improved: add option 'dates_as_objects' to php_xmlrpc_decode to return dateTime objects for xmlrpc datetimes
197 * improved: add new method SetCurlOptions to xmrlpc_client to allow extra flexibility in tweaking http config, such as
198 explicitly binding to an ip address
199 * improved: add new method SetUserAgent to xmrlpc_client to to allow having different user-agent http headers
200 * improved: add a new member variable in server class to allow fine-tuning of the encoding of returned values when the
201 server is in 'phpvals' mode
202 * improved: allow servers in 'xmlrpcvals' mode to also register plain php functions by defining them in the dispatch map
204 * improved: catch exceptions thrown during execution of php functions exposed as methods by the server
205 * fixed: bad encoding if same object is encoded twice using php_xmlrpc_encode
208 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.2.2 - 2009/03/16
210 This release corrects all bugs that have been reported and sucesfully reproduced since
212 Regardless of the intimidating message about dropping PHP 4 support, it still does
213 support that ancient, broken and insecure platform.
216 * fixed: php warning when receiving 'false' in a bool value
217 * fixed: improve robustness of the debugger when parsing weird results from non-compliant servers
218 * fixed: format floating point values using the correct decimal separator even when php locale is set to one that uses
220 * fixed: use feof() to test if socket connections are to be closed instead of the number of bytes read (rare bug when
221 communicating with some servers)
222 * fixed: be more tolerant in detection of charset in http headers
223 * fixed: fix encoding of UTF8 chars outside of the BMP plane
224 * fixed: fix detection of zlib.output_compression
225 * improved: allow the add_to_map server method to add docs for single params too
226 * improved: added the possibility to wrap for exposure as xmlrpc methods plain php class methods, object methods and
230 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.2.1 - 2008/03/06
232 This release corrects all bugs that have been reported and sucesfully reproduced.
233 It is the last release of the library that will support PHP 4.
235 * fixed: work around bug in php 5.2.2 which broke support of HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA
236 * fixed: is_dir parameter of setCaCertificate() method is reversed
237 * fixed: a php warning in xmlrpc_client creator method
238 * fixed: parsing of '1e+1' as valid float
239 * fixed: allow errorlevel 3 to work when prev. error handler was a static method
240 * fixed: usage of client::setcookie() for multiple cookies in non-ssl mode
241 * improved: support for CP1252 charset is not part or the library but almost possible
242 * improved: more info when curl is enabled and debug mode is on
245 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.2 - 2007/02/25
247 This release corrects a couple of bugs and adds a few minor features.
249 * fixed: debugger errors on php installs with magic_quotes_gpc on
250 * fixed: support for https connections via proxy
251 * fixed: wrap_xmlrpc_method() generated code failed to properly encode php objects
252 * improved: slightly faster encoding of data which is internally UTF-8
253 * improved: debugger always generates a 'null' id for jsonrpc if user omits it
254 * new: debugger can take advantage of a graphical value builder
255 (it has to be downloaded separately, as part of jsxmlrpc package)
256 * new: support for the <NIL/> xmlrpc extension
257 * new: server support for the system.getCapabilities xmlrpc extension
258 * new: wrap_xmlrpc_method() accepts two new options: debug and return_on_fault
261 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.1 - 2006/08/28
263 This release corrects quite a few bugs and adds some interesting new features.
264 There is a minor security enhancement and overall speedup too.
266 It has been tested with PHP 4.0.5 up to 4.4.4 and 5.1.5.
267 Please note that 404pl1 is NOT supported, and has not been since 2.0.
269 *** PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BELOW ***
271 CHANGES THAT MIGHT AFFECT DEPLOYED APPLICATIONS:
273 The wrap_php_function and wrap_xmlrpc_method functions have been moved out of
274 the base library file xmlrpc.inc into a file of their own: xmlrpc_wrappers.inc.
275 You will have to include() / require() it in your scripts if you have been using
278 For increased security, the automatic rebuilding of php object instances out of
279 received xmlrpc structs in wrap_xmlrpc_method() has been disabled (but it can be
280 optionally reenabled).
282 The constructor of xmlrpcval() values has seen major changes, and it will not
283 throw a php warning anymore when invoked using an unknown xmlrpc type: the
284 error will only be written to php error log. Also new xmlrpcval('true', 'boolean')
285 is not supported anymore.
289 The new function php_xmlrpc_decode_xml() will take the xml representation of
290 either an xmlrpc request, response or single value and return the corresponding
291 php-xmlrpc object instance.
293 Both wrap_php_function() and wrap_xmlrpc_method() functions accept many more
294 options to fine tune their behaviour, including one to return the php code to
295 be saved and later used as standalone php script.
297 A new function wrap_xmlrpc_server() has been added, to wrap all (or some) of the
298 methods exposed by a remote xmlrpc server into a php class.
300 Lib internals have been modified to provide better support for grafting extra
301 functionality on top of it. Stay tuned for future releases of the EXTRAS package.
303 Last but not least a new file has been added: verify_compat.php, to help users
304 diagnose the level of compliance of the current php install with the library.
308 * fixed bug 1311927: client not playing nice with some proxy/firewall on ports != 80
309 * fixed bug 1334340: all ereg_ functions have been replaced with corresponding preg_
310 * fixed bug: wrong handling of 'deflate' http encoding, both server and client side
311 * fixed bug: sending compressed responses when php output compression is enabled was not working
312 * fixed bug: addarray() and addstruct() where not returning 1 when adding data to already initialized values
313 * fixed bug: non-ascii chars used in struct element names where not being encoded correctly
314 * restored compatibility with php 4.0.5 (for those poor souls still stuck on it)
315 * server->service() now returns either the payload or xmlrpcresp instance
316 * server->add_to_map() now accepts methods with no param definitions
317 * added new function: php_xmlrpc_decode_xml()
318 * added new function: wrap_xmlrpc_server()
319 * major improvements and security enhancements to wrap_php_function() and wrap_xmlrpc_method()
320 * documentation for single parameters of exposed methods can be added to the dispatch map
321 (and turned into html docs in conjunction with a future release of the extras package)
322 * full response payload is saved into xmlrpcresp object for further debugging
323 * stricter parsing of incoming xmlrpc messages: two more invalid cases are now detected
324 (double data element inside array and struct/array after scalar inside value element)
325 * debugger can now generate code that wraps a remote method into php function (works for jsonrpc, too)
326 * debugger has better support for being activated via a single GET call (for integration into other tools?)
327 * more logging of errors in a lot of situations
328 * javadoc documentation of lib files almost complete
329 * the usual amount of new testcases in the testsuite
330 * many performance tweaks and code cleanups
331 * added foundation for emulating the API of the xmlrpc extension (extras package needed)
334 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0 - 2006/04/24
336 I'm pleased to announce XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0, final.
338 With respect to the last release candidate, this release corrects a few small
339 bugs and adds a couple of new features: more authentication options (digest and
340 ntlm for servers, ntlm for proxies, and some https custom certificates stuff);
341 all the examples have been reviewed and some demo files added,
342 including a ready-made xmlrpc proxy (useful e.g. for ajax calls, when the xmlrpc
343 client is a browser); the server logs more warning messages for incorrect situations;
344 both client and server are more tolerant of commonly-found mistakes.
345 The debugger has been upgraded to reflect the new client capabilities.
349 * fixed bug: method xmlrpcval::structmemexists($value) would not work
350 * fixed bug: wrap_xmlrpc_method would fail if invoked with a client object that
351 has return_type=phpvals
352 * fixed bug: in case of call to client::multicall without fallback and server error
353 * fixed bug: recursive serialization of xmlrpcvals loosing specified UTF8 charset
354 * fixed bug: serializing to ISO-8859-1 with php 5 would raise an error if non-ascii
355 chars where found when decoding
356 * new: client can use NTLM and Digest authentication methods for https and http 1.1
357 connections; authentication to proxy can be set to NTLM, too
358 * new: server tolerates user functions returning a single xmlrpcval object instead
360 * new: server does more checks for presence and correct return type of user
361 coded method handling functions, and logs inconsistencies to php error log
362 * new: client method SetCaCertificate($cert, $is_dir) to validate server against
363 * new: both server and client tolerate receiving 'true' and 'false' for bool values
364 (which btw are not valid according to the xmlrpc spec)
367 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0RC3 - 2006/01/22
369 This release corrects a few bugs and adds some interesting new features.
370 It has been tested with PHP up to 4.4.2 and 5.1.2.
372 * fixed bug: server not recognizing clients that declare support for http compression
373 * fixed bug: serialization of new xmlrpcval (8, 'string') when internal encoding
375 * fixed bug: serialization of new xmlrpcval ('hello', 'int') would produce
377 * new: let the server accept 'class::method' syntax in the dispatch map
378 * new: php_xmlrpc_decode() can decode xmlrpcmessage objects
379 * new: both client and server can specify a charset to be used for serializing
380 values instead of the default 'US-ASCII+xml-entities-for-other-characters'.
381 Values allowed: ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8
382 * new: the server object can register 'plain' php functions instead of functions
383 that accept a single parameter of type xmlrpcmsg. Faster, uses less memory
384 (but comes with minor drawbacks as well, read the manual for more details)
385 * new: client::setDebug(2) can be used to have the request payload printed to
386 screen before being sent
387 * new: server::service($data) lets user parse data other than POST body, for
388 easier testing / subclassing
389 * changed: framework-generated debug messages are sent back by the server base64
390 encoded, to avoid any charset/xml compatibility problem
393 The usual refactoring of a lot of (private) methods has taken place, with new
394 parameters added to some functions.
395 Javadoc documentation has been improved a lot.
396 The HTML documentation has been shuffled around a bit, hoping to give it a more
397 logical organization.
399 The experimental support for the JSON protocol has been removed, and will be
400 packaged as a separate download with some extra very interesting stuff (human
401 readable auto-generated documentation, anyone?).
404 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0RC2 - 2005/11/22
406 This release corrects a few bugs and adds basically one new method for better
409 * fixed two bugs that prevented xmlrpc calls to take place over https
410 * fixed two bugs that prevented proper recognition of xml character set
411 when it was declared inside the xml prologue
412 * added xmlrpc_client::setKey($key, $keypass) method, to allow using client
413 side certificates for https connections
414 * fixed bug that prevented proper serialization of string xmlrpcvals when
415 $xmlrpc_internalencoding was set to UTF-8
416 * fixed bug in xmlrpc_server::echoInput() (and marked method as deprecated)
417 * correctly set cookies/http headers into xmlrpcresp objects even when the
418 send() method call fails for some reason
419 * added a benchmark file in the testsuite directory
421 A couple of (private/protected) methods have been refactored, as well as a
422 couple of extra parameters added to some (private) functions - this has no
423 impact on the public API and should be of interest primarily to people extending
424 / subclassing the lib.
426 There is also new, PARTIAL support for the JSON-RPC protocol, implemented in
427 two files in the extras dir (more info about json-rpc at http://json-rpc.org)
430 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0RC1 - 2005/10/03
432 I'm pleased to announce XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0, release candidate 1.
434 This release introduces so many new features it is almost impossible to list them
435 here, making the library finally on pair with, if not more advanced than, any other
436 similar offer (e.g. the PEAR XMLRPC package or the Incutio IXR library).
437 No, really, trust me.
439 The minimum supported PHP version is now 4.2 - natively - or 4.0.4pl1 - by usage of
440 a couple of compatibility classes (code taken from PEAR php_compat package).
442 The placement of files and directories in the distribution has been deeply modified,
443 in the hope of making it more clear, now that the file count has increased.
444 I hope you find it easy.
446 Support for "advanced" HTTP features such as cookies, proxies and keep-alives has
449 It is now much easier to convert between xmlrpcval objects and php values, and
450 in fact php_xmlrpc_encode and php_xmlrpc_decode are now the recommended methods
451 for all cases, except when encoding base64 data.
453 Two new (experimental) functions have been added, allowing automagic conversion
454 of a php function into an xmlrpc method to be exposed and vice-versa.
456 PHP objects can be now automatically serialized as xmlrpc struct values and
457 correctly deserialized on the other end of the transmission, provided that the
458 same class definition is present on both sides and no object members are of
461 A lot of the existing class methods have been overloaded with extra parameters
462 or new functionality, and a few added ex-novo, making usage easier than ever.
464 A complete debugger solution is included in the distribution. It needs a web server
465 to run (a freely available version of the same debugger is accessible online, it
466 can be found at http://phpxmlrpc.sourceforge.net).
468 For a more detailed list of changes, please read carefully chapter 2 of the
469 included documentation, or, even better, take a look at the source code, which
470 is commented in javadoc style quite a bit.
473 XML-RPC for PHP version 1.2 - 2005/08/14
475 This removes all use of eval(), which is a potential security problem.
476 All users are encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible.
477 As of this release we are no longer php3-compatible.
480 XML-RPC for PHP version 1.1.1 - 2005/06/30
482 This is a security vulnerability fix release.
483 All users are invited to upgrade as soon as possible.
486 XML-RPC for PHP version 1.1 - 2005/05/03
488 I'm pleased to announce XML-RPC for PHP version 1.1
489 It's taken two years to get to the this point, but here we are, finally.
491 This is a bugfix and maintenance release. No major new features have been added.
492 All known bugs have been ironed out, unless fixing would have meant breaking
494 The code has been tested with PHP 3, 4 and 5, even tough PHP 4 is the main
495 development platform (and some warnings will be emitted when running PHP5).
497 Noteworthy changes include:
499 * do not clash any more with the EPI xmlrpc extension bundled with PHP 4 and 5
500 * fixed the unicode/charset problems that have been plaguing the lib for years
501 * proper parsing of int and float values prepended with zeroes or the '+' char
502 * accept float values in exponential notation
503 * configurable http user-agent string
504 * use the same timeout on client socket reads as used for connecting
505 * more explicative error messages in xmlrpcresponse in many cases
506 * much more tolerant parsing of malformed http responses from xmlrpc servers
507 * fixed memleak that prevented the client to be used in never-ending scripts
508 * parse bigger xmlrpc messages without crashing (1MB in size or more)
509 * be tolerant to xmlrpc responses generated on public servers that add
510 javascript advertising at the end of hosted content
511 * the lib generates quite a few less PHP warnings during standard operation
513 This is the last release that will support PHP 3.
514 The next release will include better support for PHP 5 and (possibly) a slew of

521 pages at http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpxmlrpc/
524 XML-RPC for PHP version 1.0
526 I'm pleased to announce XML-RPC for PHP version 1.0 (final). It's taken
527 two years to get to the 1.0 point, but here we are, finally. The major change
528 is re-licensing with the BSD open source license, a move from the custom
529 license previously used.
531 After this release I expect to move the project to SourceForge and find
532 another primary maintainer for the code. More details will follow to the

540 Bugfixes in this release include:
542 * Small fixes and tidying up.
544 New features include:
546 * experimental support for SSL via the curl extensions to PHP. Needs
547 PHP 4.0.2 or greater, but not PHP 4.0.6 which has broken SSL support.
