Subject: sub decode fails to decode values of type double when using 'use-objects'
Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2012 17:07:12 +0200
To: bug-Frontier-RPC [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Herwin Weststrate <herwin [...] quarantainenet.nl>
When running the method 'decode' on a valid XML-RPC input with the option 'use-objects' on, every entry should be encoded as a Frontier::RPC::<datatype> object. This fails on the type double, the module does have code to convert a float but the float is not defined in the specifications of XML-RPC (http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec). An example input may look like this: <?xml version="1.0"?> <methodCall> <methodName>perform_actions</methodName> <params> <param><name>some_string</name><value><string>X</string></value> </param> <param><name>some_double</name><value><double>1.2</double></value> </param> </params> </methodCall> When running it through this conversion code (shortened version): my $coder = Frontier::RPC2->new('encoding' => 'UTF-8', 'use_objects' => 1); my $test = $coder->decode($data); print Dumper($test); The ouput does look like this (with only relevan fields shown): 'value' => [ bless( do{\(my $o = 'X')}, 'Frontier::RPC2::String' ), '1.2' ] The attached patch fixes this problem -- Herwin Weststrate
