DESCRIPTION

This Apache Perl module provides the ability to add sup
port for XML-RPC protocol with easy configuration (either
in .conf or in .htaccess file). This functionality should
give you lightweight option for hosting SOAP services and
greatly simplify configuration aspects. This module
inherites functionality from XMLRPC::Trans
port::HTTP::Apache component of XMLRPC::Lite module.

CONFIGURATION

The module can be placed in <Location>, <Directory>,
<Files>, <FilesMatch> directives in main server configura
tion areas or directly in .htaccess file.

All parameters should be quoted and can be separated with
commas or spaces for lists ("a, b, c") and with 'wide
arrows' and commas for hash parameters ("key1 => value1,
key2 => value2").

All options that you can find in XMLRPC::Trans
port::HTTP::Apache component are available for configura
tion. Here is the description of most important ones.

dispatch_to (LIST)

Specifies path to directory that contains Perl modules
you'd like to give access to, or just list of modules
(for preloaded modules).

PerlSetVar dispatch_to "/Your/Path/To/Deployed/Mod

ules, Module::Name, Module::method"

options (HASH)

Specifies list of options for your module, for example
threshold for compression. Future versions will sup
port more options. See XMLRPC::Transport::HTTP docu
mentation for other options.

PerlSetVar options "compress_threshold => 10000"
