XML-RPC dateTime.iso8601 case sensitive

[xacom]

Hi,

I am using RTC (2010 Q2) as a client to an already existing XML-RPC server.
When a datetime is added as a parameter and sent to the server its type is "datetime.iso8601". The server appears to be case sensitive and refuses to accept this as a valid parameter.

My understanding is that XML is case sensitive, and XML-RPC defines the type as "dateTime.iso8601", therefore at this point I cannot criticize the server and am wondering if there is a reason why RTC uses "datetime.iso8601".

The associated code is at line 9706 in RTCinfo.pas.

Simply changing the code and recompiling the components works for me in the short term, however I would prefer the output of RTC to match the XML-RPC specification if possible.

Thanks,
Daniel

You are correct, the XML-RPC type name for date/time should be <dateTime.iso8601>. I have fixed this in my local copy now and will release it as an official update later today (RTC SDK Build 395).
