Description Johann Schmitz (ercpe) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-08-30 13:41:02 UTC
Even the latest code in SVN (http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/commons/proper/jcs/trunk/src/experimental/org/apache/commons/jcs/auxiliary/lateral/xmlrpc/LateralXMLRPCReceiver.java?view=markup) uses the pre-3 implementation of org.apache.xmlrpc.WebServer.

In dev-java/xmlrpc-3.x the WebServer was moved to org.apache.xmlrpc.webserver and it's public API has changed. Don't know if we can safely drop the "experimental" part from jcs.

Reproducible: Always
