/* A simple standalone XML-RPC server based on Abyss that processes a single RPC from an existing TCP connection on Standard Input. A typical example of where this would be useful is with an Inetd "super server." xmlrpc_sample_add_server.c is a server that does the same thing, but you give it a TCP port number and it listens for TCP connecitons and processes RPCs ad infinitum. xmlrpc_socket_server.c is halfway in between those -- you give it an already bound and listening socket, and it lists for TCP connections and processes RPCs ad infinitum. Here is an easy way to test this program: socketexec --accept --local_port=8080 --stdin -- ./xmlrpc_inetd_server Now run the client program 'xmlrpc_sample_add_client'. Socketexec will accept the connection that the client program requests and pass it to this program on Standard Input. This program will perform the RPC, respond to the client, then exit. */ #include #include #include #ifndef WIN32 #include #endif #include #include #include #include #include "config.h" /* information about this build environment */ static void setupSignalHandlers(void) { /* In UNIX, when you try to write to a socket that has been closed from the other end, your write fails, but you also get a SIGPIPE signal.
