In a new post today, Mike Naberezny talks about some updates that have been made to the XML-RPC client included with the Zend Framework, spotlighting three items in particular.

A few weeks ago, I rewrote the Zend XML-RPC client as part of a customer project at Maintainable. After fixing a fair number of bugs and writing a test suite, I made some enhancements and usability improvements. You can learn more about the new XML-RPC client from its documentation.

The three new updates to the package deal with:

• Calling remote methods (a new call() method)
• Server proxy objects have been added
• Faults are thrown as PHP exceptions
