extract_method_call

Warning: extract_method_call is deprecated.

Parses method_call to get the name and parameters, and puts the parameters into variables of the appropriate types.

The parameters are handled similarly to soup_xmlrpc_build_method_call, with pairs of types and values, terminated by INVALID, except that values are pointers to variables of the indicated type, rather than values of the type.

See also parse_method_call, which can be used if you don't know the types of the parameters.

Parameters:

method_call	the XML-RPC methodCall string
length	the length of method_call, or -1 if it is NUL-terminated
method_name	on return, the methodName from method_call
...	return types and locations for parameters

Returns:

success or failure.
