SimpleXMLRPCServer

[Maxim Khesin]

Hi,
the typical usage of SimpleXMLRPCServer registers some
class with the server instance and then jumps into a
serve-forever loop, e.g.

server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(('', 8000))
server.register_instance(MyClass())
server.serve_forever()

is there a way to process actions other than XML-RPC
requests using SimpleXMLRPCServer? Is is possible to do
something like

server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(('', 8000))
server.register_instance(MyClass())
while(1)
if(checkSomeCondidion()):
server.serve_once()
else: server.stop()

thanks,
max

You should be able to override the serve_forever() method.

Here is an example of a server which runs as long as self.running
is set:

class SimpleXMLRPCServer_with_stop(SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCServer):

def __init__(self, *args, **kwds):
self.running = True
SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCServer.__init__(self, *args, **kwds)

def serve_while_running_is_set(self):
"""Server while running is set."""
while self.running:
self.handle_request()

class SimpleXMLRPCServer_with_stop(SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCServer):

def __init__(self, *args, **kwds):
self.running = True
SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCServer.__init__(self, *args, **kwds)

def serve_while_running_is_set(self):
"""Server while running is set."""
while self.running:
self.handle_request()

So putting it in my original terms this would be:

server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(('', 8000))
server.register_instance(MyClass())
while(1)
if(checkSomeCondidion()):
server.handle_request()
else: server.stop()

?
thanks.
