Re: [xmlblaster] XMLRPC - type information missing ?

[Michele Laghi <laghi at swissinfo.org>]

Hi Benno,
you are right, normally every value is typed, but according to the 
xml-rpc specification (http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec) if no type is 
specified it is implicitly assumed to be a string, so here your value is 
of type string.

Regards
Michele
