 XML-RPC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is in stark contrast to most RPC systems, where the standards documents often run into the thousands of pages and require considerable software support in order to be used.
It was first created by Dave Winer of UserLand Software in 1995 with Microsoft.

 DaveNet : XML-RPC for Newbies
But RPC is important, no matter what format is used, because it allows choices, you can replace a component with another one; and it opens possibilities, empowering advanced users to develop solutions with packaged software that the developers didn't anticipate.
One possible format is XML, a new language that both humans and computers can read.
That's why Windows machines can be networked with other Windows machines, and Macs can talk to Macs, etc. The value in a standardized cross-platform approach for RPC is that it allows Unix machines to talk to Windows machines and vice versa.

 Cover Pages: XML-RPC
According to the text of the proposal, "There is considerable interest in using XML for 'Remote Procedure Calls', where a procedure call (or method call) on one computer is transmitted over a network as XML and is then delivered as procedure call (or method call) on another computer.
The purpose of this 'forward mapping' is to allow XML RPC interfaces that have been defined in other languages to be mapped into Java.
A skeleton is an analogous piece of code that runs on a server and maps an incoming network call to a language level call on the server.) (2) APIs and conventions for mapping XML RPC call definitions into Java interfaces, classes, and methods.

 Increase Visibility in Blog and RSS Directories: XML-RPC Pings - Robin Good's Latest News
RPC stands for Remote Procedure Call, which means that you are executing a command on one computer that controls the behavior of another computer across the Internet, so that the remote computer properly executes that request.
Using the metaphor of a language, XML is no more than a distinct alphabet [pdf file] used to communicate between two computers connected to the Internet.
A ping is a geeky way of describing the action of one computer sending a signal to another computer, while expecting a response.

The Apache XML Project used to be the home for many XML-related subprojects, many of which have moved to top-level project status recently or are currently in migration.
The idea is that you can take advantage the richness and features of XML and XML Schema and have these features mapped as naturally as possible to the equivalent Java language and typing constructs.
The formatting object tree, can be in the form of an XML document (output by an XSLT engine like Xalan) or can be passed in memory as a DOM Document or (in the case of Xalan) SAX events.

There is considerable interest in using XML for "Remote Procedure Calls", where a procedure call (or method call) on one computer is transmitted over a network as XML and is then delivered as procedure call (or method call) on another computer.
The purpose of this "forward mapping" is to allow XML based RPC interfaces that have been defined in other languages to be mapped into Java.

Meerkat's XML-RPC API is a direct port of its straightforward URL-line recipes to an RPC environment.
Application developers with a little know-how and a sense of adventure may use Meerkat's rich XML feeds and powerful "recipes" (read: queries) as a framework upon which to build their own applications.
Meerkat's API is "URL-line"; similar in concept to the Unix command-line, Meerkat's engine may be queried over the Web using combinations of various arguments.

A data oriented XML file is fully nested (like XML-RPC, RSS, SOAP, WDDX, etc.), while XHTML is an example of a type of XML document which is document oriented.
With this library, the way everything works is that it builds a data structure representing the XML to be sent.

This makes it unfortunately a lot harder for sysadmins to find an easy cure for the problem: there is a great chance that on public hosting servers the aforementioned files will be found in many different directories and in many different versions.

 Programming Web Services with XML-RPC: Chapter 3: Client-Server Communication: XML-RPC in Java
Although XML-RPC goes against the grain of much Java network programming (and even against some of the fundamental principles of object-oriented development), its alternative approach can be useful in many relatively common scenarios.
Although understanding the foundations of XML-RPC is very useful for debugging and for establishing connections between systems in different environments, you can treat XML-RPC much like you do any other Java feature.
The components included in the XML-RPC library include client- and server-specific classes used for creating requests and responses, as well as a more generic core that controls how the library handles HTTP processing and XML parsing.

 XML-RPC Message Builder
Both arrays and structs can contain other arrays and structs as members, so it's possible to take a complex Object and describe it in XML by passing it to addParameter (this recursive feature is still being tested, though).

SOAP does not itself define any application semantics such as a programming model or implementation specific semantics; rather it defines a simple mechanism for expressing application semantics by providing a modular packaging model and encoding mechanisms for encoding data within modules.
SOAP was originally developed for distributed applications to communicate over HTTP and through corporate firewalls.
This allows SOAP to be used in a large variety of systems ranging from messaging systems to RPC.
