POX-RPC

Tue, 28 Mar 2006 01:56:07 -0800

Name of the RPC protocol integrated within XINS, previously called “REST-RPC”. Since the name “REST-RPC” is considered confusing, it has been changed. The XINS-internal name for this protocol used to be “the XINS standard calling convention.” POX-RPC intends to offer the simplicity of XML-RPC, combined with improved features, including browser-compatibility.

“POX” stands for “Plain Old XML” while “RPC” stands for “Remote Procedure Calls.”

Recently, a SourceForge project has been created to host the POX-RPC definition formats and documentation: SourceForge project.
