This tutorial begins with an inside look at how Fredrik Lundh's xmlrpclib Python module uses the "dumps" and "loads" methods to convert native Python objects into XML and back.

The author demonstrates utilizing xmlrpclib to build an XML-RPC server and ends with a discussion of some interesting current uses of XML-RPC that includes why the maturation of SOAP does not necessarily mean the end of XML-RPC.
