XML-RPC

I am trying to communicate with a third party software service that is an XML
RPC. I found a library on xml-rpc.net but I cannot get it to work, at least
not yet. I was wondering if there are any alternatives to working with this
library?

Hello Philip,

Thanks for posting here.

As for the XML-RPC component you mentioned, is it the following one:

http://www.xml-rpc.net/

Haven't quite used this component , however, what's the exact problem you
meet when using this component? Anyway, based on my understanding, since
.net framework has provided well encapsulated classes for XML data
manipulation and network communication, you can consider directly
constructing the XML-RPC message through the XML apis in .net framework
class library, and use the network components( http webrequest or TCP
client ) to transfer XML message to the RPC server. How do you think?

Please feel free to post here if you have any other ideas.

Steven,

Thank you for your quick response.

I am not having vb.net releated problems, but more component related
problems. The component has its own mailinglist so I will ask some questions
there.

I was just wondering what other options I have.

Thanks for the response Philip,

That's fine. So far I haven't got any other managed components for XML-RPC
since .net framework mostly concentrate on XML webservice. Anyway, if you
meet any other managed development issue we can help, please feel free to
post here.

Good Luck!
