1 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.3.2 - 2019/5/27
3 * fixed: remove one php 7.2 warning when using the v3 compatibility layer
5 * improved: the Travis tests are now run with all php versions from 5.6 to 7.3. We dropped tests with php 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5
8 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.3.1 - 2018/1/20
10 * fixed: error when using https in non-curl mode
12 * fixed: compatibility of tests with php 7.2
14 * fixed: html injection in sample code
16 * fixed: warnings emitted by the *legacy* server in xmlrpcs.inc
18 * fixed: encoding of php variables of type 'resource' when using xmlrpc_encode in php-compatibility mode
20 * fixed: bad html tag in sample code
22 * improved: text of error messages
25 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.3.0 - 2017/11/6
27 * fixed: compatibility with Basic/Digest/NTLM auth when using client in cURL mode (issue #58)
29 * improved: added unit tests for Basic and Digest http auth. Also improved tests suite
31 * new: allow to force usage of curl for http 1.0 calls, as well as plain socket for https calls, via the method
32 `Client::setUseCurl()`
35 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.2.2 - 2017/10/15
37 * fixed: compatibility with Lighttpd target servers when using client in cURL mode and request body size > 1024 bytes (issue #56)
40 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.2.1 - 2017/9/3
42 * fixed: compatibility with php 7.2 (issue #55)
45 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.2.0 - 2017/6/30
47 * improved: allow also DateTimeImmutable objects to be detected as a date when encoding
50 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.1.1 - 2016/10/1
52 * fixed: error in server class: undefined function php_xmlrpc_encode (only triggered when not using the compatibility
53 shim with old versions)
56 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.1.0 - 2016/6/26
58 * improved: Added support for receiving <I8> and <EX:I8> integers, sending <I8>
60 If php is compiled in 32 bit mode, and an i8 int is received from a 3rd party, and error will be emitted.
61 Integers sent from the library to 3rd parties can be encoded using the i8 tag, but default to using 'int' by default;
62 the developer will have to create values as i8 explicitly if needed.
63 The library does *not* check if an outgoing integer is too big to fit in 4 bytes and convert it to an i8 automatically.
66 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.0.1 - 2016/3/27
68 * improved: all of the API documentation has been moved out of the manual and into the source code phpdoc comments
70 * fixed: when the internal character set is set to UTF-8 and the client sends requests (or the server responses), too
71 many characters were encoded as numeric entities, whereas some, like åäö, needed not not be
73 * fixed: the 'valtyp' property of Response was not present in all cases; the ValType property had been added by error
77 XML-RPC for PHP version 4.0.0 - 2016/1/20
79 This release does away with the past and starts a transition to modern-world php.
81 Code has been heavily refactored, taking care to preserve backwards compatibility as much as possible,
82 but some breackage is to be expected.
84 The minimum required php version has been increased to 5.3, even though we strongly urge you to use
87 PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THE NOTES BELOW to insure a smooth upgrade.
89 * new: introduction of namespaces and full OOP.
91 All php classes have been renamed and moved to separate files.
92 Class autoloading can now be done in accord with the PSR-4 standard.
93 All global variables and global functions have been removed.
94 Iterating over xmlrpc value objects is now easier thank to support for ArrayAccess and Traversable interfaces.
96 Backward compatibility is maintained via lib/xmlrpc.inc, lib/xmlrpcs.inc and lib/xmlrpc_wrappers.inc.
97 For more details, head on to doc/api_changes_v4.md
99 * changed: the default character encoding delivered from the library to your code is now utf8.
100 It can be changed at any time setting a value to PhpXmlRpc\PhpXmlRpc::$xmlrpc_internalencoding
102 * improved: the library now accepts requests/responses sent using other character sets than UTF-8/ISO-8859-1/ASCII.
103 This only works when the mbstring php extension is enabled.
105 * improved: no need to call anymore $client->setSSLVerifyHost(2) to silence a curl warning when using https
106 with recent curl builds
108 * improved: the xmlrpcval class now supports the interfaces Countable and IteratorAggregate
110 * improved: a specific option allows users to decide the version of SSL to use for https calls.
111 This is useful f.e. for the testing suite, when the server target of calls has no proper ssl certificate,
112 and the cURL extension has been compiled with GnuTLS (such as on Travis VMs)
114 * improved: the function wrap_php_function() now can be used to wrap closures (it is now a method btw)
116 * improved: all wrap_something() functions now return a closure by default instead of a function name
118 * improved: debug messages are not html-escaped any more when executing from the command line
120 * improved: the library is now tested using Travis ( https://travis-ci.org/ ).
121 Tests are executed using all php versions from 5.3 to 7.2; code-coverage information
122 is generated using php 5.6 and uploaded to both Code Coverage and Scrutinizer online services
124 * improved: phpunit is now installed via composer, not bundled anymore
126 * improved: when phpunit is used to generate code-coverage data, the code executed server-side is accounted for
128 * improved: the test suite has basic checks for the debugger and demo files
130 * improved: more tests in the test suite
132 * fixed: the server would not reset the user-set debug messages between subsequent service() calls
134 * fixed: the server would not reset previous php error handlers when an exception was thrown by user code and
135 exception_handling set to 2
137 * fixed: the server would fail to decode a request with ISO-8859-1 payload and character set declaration in the xml
140 * fixed: the client would fail to decode a response with ISO-8859-1 payload and character set declaration in the xml
143 * fixed: the function decode_xml() would not decode an xml with character set declaration in the xml prolog
145 * fixed: the client can now successfully call methods using ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8 characters in their name
147 * fixed: the debugger would fail sending a request with ISO-8859-1 payload (it missed the character set declaration).
148 It would have a hard time coping with ISO-8859-1 in other fields, such as e.g. the remote method name
150 * fixed: the debugger would generate a bad payload via the 'load method synopsis' button for signatures containing NULL
151 or undefined parameters
153 * fixed: the debugger would generate a bad payload via the 'load method synopsis' button for methods with multiple
156 * improved: the debugger is displayed using UTF-8, making it more useful to debug any kind of service
158 * improved: echo all debug messages even when there are characters in them which php deems to be in a wrong encoding;
159 previously those messages would just disappear (this is visible e.g. in the debugger)
161 * changed: debug info handling
162 - at debug level 1, the rebuilt php objects are not dumped to screen (server-side already did that)
163 - at debug level 1, curl communication info are not dumped to screen
164 - at debug level 1, the tests echo payloads of failures; at debug level 2 all payloads
166 * improved: makefiles have been replaced with a php_based pakefile
168 * improved: the source for the manual is stored in asciidoc format, which can be displayed natively by GitHub
169 with nice html formatting. Also the HTML version generated by hand and bundled in tarballs is much nicer
170 to look at than previous versions
172 * improved: all php code is now formatted according to the PSR-2 standard
175 XML-RPC for PHP version 3.0.0 - 2014/6/15
177 This release corrects all bugs that have been reported and successfully reproduced since
180 The requirements have increased to php 5.1.0 - which is still way older than what you should be running for any serious
183 It also is the first release to be installable via composer.
185 See the Changelog file or the pdf docs for a complete list of changes.
188 XML-RPC for PHP version 3.0.0 beta - 2009/09/05
190 This is the first release of the library to only support PHP 5.
191 Some legacy code has been removed, and support for features such as exceptions
192 and dateTime objects introduced.
194 The "beta" tag is meant to indicate the fact that the refactoring has been more widespread
195 than in precedent releases and that more changes are likely to be introduced with time -
196 the library is still considered to be production quality.
198 * improved: removed all usage of php functions deprecated in php 5.3, usage of assign-by-ref when creating new objects
200 * improved: add support for the <ex:nil/> tag used by the apache library, both in input and output
201 * improved: add support for dateTime objects in both in php_xmlrpc_encode and as parameter for constructor of xmlrpcval
202 * improved: add support for timestamps as parameter for constructor of xmlrpcval
203 * improved: add option 'dates_as_objects' to php_xmlrpc_decode to return dateTime objects for xmlrpc datetimes
204 * improved: add new method SetCurlOptions to xmrlpc_client to allow extra flexibility in tweaking http config, such as
205 explicitly binding to an ip address
206 * improved: add new method SetUserAgent to xmrlpc_client to to allow having different user-agent http headers
207 * improved: add a new member variable in server class to allow fine-tuning of the encoding of returned values when the
208 server is in 'phpvals' mode
209 * improved: allow servers in 'xmlrpcvals' mode to also register plain php functions by defining them in the dispatch map
211 * improved: catch exceptions thrown during execution of php functions exposed as methods by the server
212 * fixed: bad encoding if same object is encoded twice using php_xmlrpc_encode
215 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.2.2 - 2009/03/16
217 This release corrects all bugs that have been reported and sucesfully reproduced since
219 Regardless of the intimidating message about dropping PHP 4 support, it still does
220 support that ancient, broken and insecure platform.
223 * fixed: php warning when receiving 'false' in a bool value
224 * fixed: improve robustness of the debugger when parsing weird results from non-compliant servers
225 * fixed: format floating point values using the correct decimal separator even when php locale is set to one that uses
227 * fixed: use feof() to test if socket connections are to be closed instead of the number of bytes read (rare bug when
228 communicating with some servers)
229 * fixed: be more tolerant in detection of charset in http headers
230 * fixed: fix encoding of UTF8 chars outside of the BMP plane
231 * fixed: fix detection of zlib.output_compression
232 * improved: allow the add_to_map server method to add docs for single params too
233 * improved: added the possibility to wrap for exposure as xmlrpc methods plain php class methods, object methods and
237 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.2.1 - 2008/03/06
239 This release corrects all bugs that have been reported and sucesfully reproduced.
240 It is the last release of the library that will support PHP 4.
242 * fixed: work around bug in php 5.2.2 which broke support of HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA
243 * fixed: is_dir parameter of setCaCertificate() method is reversed
244 * fixed: a php warning in xmlrpc_client creator method
245 * fixed: parsing of '1e+1' as valid float
246 * fixed: allow errorlevel 3 to work when prev. error handler was a static method
247 * fixed: usage of client::setcookie() for multiple cookies in non-ssl mode
248 * improved: support for CP1252 charset is not part or the library but almost possible
249 * improved: more info when curl is enabled and debug mode is on
252 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.2 - 2007/02/25
254 This release corrects a couple of bugs and adds a few minor features.
256 * fixed: debugger errors on php installs with magic_quotes_gpc on
257 * fixed: support for https connections via proxy
258 * fixed: wrap_xmlrpc_method() generated code failed to properly encode php objects
259 * improved: slightly faster encoding of data which is internally UTF-8
260 * improved: debugger always generates a 'null' id for jsonrpc if user omits it
261 * new: debugger can take advantage of a graphical value builder
262 (it has to be downloaded separately, as part of jsxmlrpc package)
263 * new: support for the <NIL/> xmlrpc extension
264 * new: server support for the system.getCapabilities xmlrpc extension
265 * new: wrap_xmlrpc_method() accepts two new options: debug and return_on_fault
268 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.1 - 2006/08/28
270 This release corrects quite a few bugs and adds some interesting new features.
271 There is a minor security enhancement and overall speedup too.
273 It has been tested with PHP 4.0.5 up to 4.4.4 and 5.1.5.
274 Please note that 404pl1 is NOT supported, and has not been since 2.0.
276 *** PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BELOW ***
278 CHANGES THAT MIGHT AFFECT DEPLOYED APPLICATIONS:
280 The wrap_php_function and wrap_xmlrpc_method functions have been moved out of
281 the base library file xmlrpc.inc into a file of their own: xmlrpc_wrappers.inc.
282 You will have to include() / require() it in your scripts if you have been using
285 For increased security, the automatic rebuilding of php object instances out of
286 received xmlrpc structs in wrap_xmlrpc_method() has been disabled (but it can be
287 optionally reenabled).
289 The constructor of xmlrpcval() values has seen major changes, and it will not
290 throw a php warning anymore when invoked using an unknown xmlrpc type: the
291 error will only be written to php error log. Also new xmlrpcval('true', 'boolean')
292 is not supported anymore.
296 The new function php_xmlrpc_decode_xml() will take the xml representation of
297 either an xmlrpc request, response or single value and return the corresponding
298 php-xmlrpc object instance.
300 Both wrap_php_function() and wrap_xmlrpc_method() functions accept many more
301 options to fine tune their behaviour, including one to return the php code to
302 be saved and later used as standalone php script.
304 A new function wrap_xmlrpc_server() has been added, to wrap all (or some) of the
305 methods exposed by a remote xmlrpc server into a php class.
307 Lib internals have been modified to provide better support for grafting extra
308 functionality on top of it. Stay tuned for future releases of the EXTRAS package.
310 Last but not least a new file has been added: verify_compat.php, to help users
311 diagnose the level of compliance of the current php install with the library.
315 * fixed bug 1311927: client not playing nice with some proxy/firewall on ports != 80
316 * fixed bug 1334340: all ereg_ functions have been replaced with corresponding preg_
317 * fixed bug: wrong handling of 'deflate' http encoding, both server and client side
318 * fixed bug: sending compressed responses when php output compression is enabled was not working
319 * fixed bug: addarray() and addstruct() where not returning 1 when adding data to already initialized values
320 * fixed bug: non-ascii chars used in struct element names where not being encoded correctly
321 * restored compatibility with php 4.0.5 (for those poor souls still stuck on it)
322 * server->service() now returns either the payload or xmlrpcresp instance
323 * server->add_to_map() now accepts methods with no param definitions
324 * added new function: php_xmlrpc_decode_xml()
325 * added new function: wrap_xmlrpc_server()
326 * major improvements and security enhancements to wrap_php_function() and wrap_xmlrpc_method()
327 * documentation for single parameters of exposed methods can be added to the dispatch map
328 (and turned into html docs in conjunction with a future release of the extras package)
329 * full response payload is saved into xmlrpcresp object for further debugging
330 * stricter parsing of incoming xmlrpc messages: two more invalid cases are now detected
331 (double data element inside array and struct/array after scalar inside value element)
332 * debugger can now generate code that wraps a remote method into php function (works for jsonrpc, too)
333 * debugger has better support for being activated via a single GET call (for integration into other tools?)
334 * more logging of errors in a lot of situations
335 * javadoc documentation of lib files almost complete
336 * the usual amount of new testcases in the testsuite
337 * many performance tweaks and code cleanups
338 * added foundation for emulating the API of the xmlrpc extension (extras package needed)
341 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0 - 2006/04/24
343 I'm pleased to announce XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0, final.
345 With respect to the last release candidate, this release corrects a few small
346 bugs and adds a couple of new features: more authentication options (digest and
347 ntlm for servers, ntlm for proxies, and some https custom certificates stuff);
348 all the examples have been reviewed and some demo files added,
349 including a ready-made xmlrpc proxy (useful e.g. for ajax calls, when the xmlrpc
350 client is a browser); the server logs more warning messages for incorrect situations;
351 both client and server are more tolerant of commonly-found mistakes.
352 The debugger has been upgraded to reflect the new client capabilities.
356 * fixed bug: method xmlrpcval::structmemexists($value) would not work
357 * fixed bug: wrap_xmlrpc_method would fail if invoked with a client object that
358 has return_type=phpvals
359 * fixed bug: in case of call to client::multicall without fallback and server error
360 * fixed bug: recursive serialization of xmlrpcvals loosing specified UTF8 charset
361 * fixed bug: serializing to ISO-8859-1 with php 5 would raise an error if non-ascii
362 chars where found when decoding
363 * new: client can use NTLM and Digest authentication methods for https and http 1.1
364 connections; authentication to proxy can be set to NTLM, too
365 * new: server tolerates user functions returning a single xmlrpcval object instead
367 * new: server does more checks for presence and correct return type of user
368 coded method handling functions, and logs inconsistencies to php error log
369 * new: client method SetCaCertificate($cert, $is_dir) to validate server against
370 * new: both server and client tolerate receiving 'true' and 'false' for bool values
371 (which btw are not valid according to the xmlrpc spec)
374 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0RC3 - 2006/01/22
376 This release corrects a few bugs and adds some interesting new features.
377 It has been tested with PHP up to 4.4.2 and 5.1.2.
379 * fixed bug: server not recognizing clients that declare support for http compression
380 * fixed bug: serialization of new xmlrpcval (8, 'string') when internal encoding
382 * fixed bug: serialization of new xmlrpcval ('hello', 'int') would produce
384 * new: let the server accept 'class::method' syntax in the dispatch map
385 * new: php_xmlrpc_decode() can decode xmlrpcmessage objects
386 * new: both client and server can specify a charset to be used for serializing
387 values instead of the default 'US-ASCII+xml-entities-for-other-characters'.
388 Values allowed: ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8
389 * new: the server object can register 'plain' php functions instead of functions
390 that accept a single parameter of type xmlrpcmsg. Faster, uses less memory
391 (but comes with minor drawbacks as well, read the manual for more details)
392 * new: client::setDebug(2) can be used to have the request payload printed to
393 screen before being sent
394 * new: server::service($data) lets user parse data other than POST body, for
395 easier testing / subclassing
396 * changed: framework-generated debug messages are sent back by the server base64
397 encoded, to avoid any charset/xml compatibility problem
400 The usual refactoring of a lot of (private) methods has taken place, with new
401 parameters added to some functions.
402 Javadoc documentation has been improved a lot.
403 The HTML documentation has been shuffled around a bit, hoping to give it a more
404 logical organization.
406 The experimental support for the JSON protocol has been removed, and will be
407 packaged as a separate download with some extra very interesting stuff (human
408 readable auto-generated documentation, anyone?).
411 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0RC2 - 2005/11/22
413 This release corrects a few bugs and adds basically one new method for better
416 * fixed two bugs that prevented xmlrpc calls to take place over https
417 * fixed two bugs that prevented proper recognition of xml character set
418 when it was declared inside the xml prologue
419 * added xmlrpc_client::setKey($key, $keypass) method, to allow using client
420 side certificates for https connections
421 * fixed bug that prevented proper serialization of string xmlrpcvals when
422 $xmlrpc_internalencoding was set to UTF-8
423 * fixed bug in xmlrpc_server::echoInput() (and marked method as deprecated)
424 * correctly set cookies/http headers into xmlrpcresp objects even when the
425 send() method call fails for some reason
426 * added a benchmark file in the testsuite directory
428 A couple of (private/protected) methods have been refactored, as well as a
429 couple of extra parameters added to some (private) functions - this has no
430 impact on the public API and should be of interest primarily to people extending
431 / subclassing the lib.
433 There is also new, PARTIAL support for the JSON-RPC protocol, implemented in
434 two files in the extras dir (more info about json-rpc at http://json-rpc.org)
437 XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0RC1 - 2005/10/03
439 I'm pleased to announce XML-RPC for PHP version 2.0, release candidate 1.
441 This release introduces so many new features it is almost impossible to list them
442 here, making the library finally on pair with, if not more advanced than, any other
443 similar offer (e.g. the PEAR XMLRPC package or the Incutio IXR library).
444 No, really, trust me.
446 The minimum supported PHP version is now 4.2 - natively - or 4.0.4pl1 - by usage of
447 a couple of compatibility classes (code taken from PEAR php_compat package).
449 The placement of files and directories in the distribution has been deeply modified,
450 in the hope of making it more clear, now that the file count has increased.
451 I hope you find it easy.
453 Support for "advanced" HTTP features such as cookies, proxies and keep-alives has
456 It is now much easier to convert between xmlrpcval objects and php values, and
457 in fact php_xmlrpc_encode and php_xmlrpc_decode are now the recommended methods
458 for all cases, except when encoding base64 data.
460 Two new (experimental) functions have been added, allowing automagic conversion
461 of a php function into an xmlrpc method to be exposed and vice-versa.
463 PHP objects can be now automatically serialized as xmlrpc struct values and
464 correctly deserialized on the other end of the transmission, provided that the
465 same class definition is present on both sides and no object members are of
468 A lot of the existing class methods have been overloaded with extra parameters
469 or new functionality, and a few added ex-novo, making usage easier than ever.
471 A complete debugger solution is included in the distribution. It needs a web server
472 to run (a freely available version of the same debugger is accessible online, it
473 can be found at http://phpxmlrpc.sourceforge.net).
475 For a more detailed list of changes, please read carefully chapter 2 of the
476 included documentation, or, even better, take a look at the source code, which
477 is commented in javadoc style quite a bit.
480 XML-RPC for PHP version 1.2 - 2005/08/14
482 This removes all use of eval(), which is a potential security problem.
483 All users are encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible.
484 As of this release we are no longer php3-compatible.
487 XML-RPC for PHP version 1.1.1 - 2005/06/30
489 This is a security vulnerability fix release.
490 All users are invited to upgrade as soon as possible.
493 XML-RPC for PHP version 1.1 - 2005/05/03
495 I'm pleased to announce XML-RPC for PHP version 1.1
496 It's taken two years to get to the this point, but here we are, finally.
498 This is a bugfix and maintenance release. No major new features have been added.
499 All known bugs have been ironed out, unless fixing would have meant breaking
501 The code has been tested with PHP 3, 4 and 5, even tough PHP 4 is the main
502 development platform (and some warnings will be emitted when running PHP5).
504 Noteworthy changes include:
506 * do not clash any more with the EPI xmlrpc extension bundled with PHP 4 and 5
507 * fixed the unicode/charset problems that have been plaguing the lib for years
508 * proper parsing of int and float values prepended with zeroes or the '+' char
509 * accept float values in exponential notation
510 * configurable http user-agent string
511 * use the same timeout on client socket reads as used for connecting
512 * more explicative error messages in xmlrpcresponse in many cases
513 * much more tolerant parsing of malformed http responses from xmlrpc servers
514 * fixed memleak that prevented the client to be used in never-ending scripts
515 * parse bigger xmlrpc messages without crashing (1MB in size or more)
516 * be tolerant to xmlrpc responses generated on public servers that add
517 javascript advertising at the end of hosted content
518 * the lib generates quite a few less PHP warnings during standard operation
520 This is the last release that will support PHP 3.
521 The next release will include better support for PHP 5 and (possibly) a slew of

531 XML-RPC for PHP version 1.0
533 I'm pleased to announce XML-RPC for PHP version 1.0 (final). It's taken
534 two years to get to the 1.0 point, but here we are, finally. The major change
535 is re-licensing with the BSD open source license, a move from the custom
536 license previously used.
538 After this release I expect to move the project to SourceForge and find
539 another primary maintainer for the code. More details will follow to the
542 It can be downloaded from http://xmlrpc.usefulinc.com/php.html
544 Comprehensive documentation is available in the distribution, but you
545 can also browse it at http://xmlrpc.usefulinc.com/doc/
547 Bugfixes in this release include:
549 * Small fixes and tidying up.
551 New features include:
553 * experimental support for SSL via the curl extensions to PHP. Needs
554 PHP 4.0.2 or greater, but not PHP 4.0.6 which has broken SSL support.
556 The changelog is available at: http://xmlrpc.usefulinc.com/ChangeLog.txt
558 Please report bugs to the XML-RPC PHP mailing list, of which more details are
