Programming Web Services with XML–RPC: Creating Web Application Gateways Paperback – 17 July 2001

Having been involved for more a year in a project where we developed a platform based on an XML-RPC like functionality I wish I could have read this book at the time before we begun. Not that we did anything wrong, but this book really gives a concise picture of what XML-RPC is good and what it is not.The book is very well structured, filled with good examples, and even though I primarily is a Perl programmer I feel very confident as a programmer that I know what languages also can use XML-RPC since this book gives examples in a lot of different languages.The book is easily read and sure MUST-HAVE for people working with web-services and need to be able to scale their platform, or make a few things smarter than they normally do - XML-RPC is the way.My only problem with the book is that it is short - I actually read it on a Sunday, but well now I have a magnificent reference book.
