[Helma-user] implementing metaweblogapi using "new-style" xmlrpc

[Stefan Rinner]

Hi

I'm trying to implement the metaWeblogAPI for an app and tried to use  
the "new-style" of xmlrpc in helma (using _action_xmlrpc instead of  
mappings in app.properties).

For the metaWeblogAPI I have to define an xmlrpc endpoint - so I  
created a mountpoint called "metaweblog" and placed my scripts there  
- e.g. getPost_action_xmlrpc() and getRecentPosts_action_xmlrpc().
But when I try to access my app using MarsEdit[0] none of my actions  
get called. If I add "main_action_xmlrpc" in my metaweblog-api  
scripts this action get's called, and when checking the "methodname"  
argument I see MarsEdit is calling several of the API's function.

So, is it not possible to implement something like the metaWeblogAPI  
with a single endpoint and several methods in the new-style?
Currently I added a switch statement to main_action_xmlrpc to route  
my calls, but this isn't that nice.
