The function xmlrpc_set_type() returns true but fails to change type.

Using like;

<?php
$params = date("Ymd\TH:i:s", time());

xmlrpc_set_type ( $params, datetime );

$response = xmlrpc_encode ( $params );
?>

Produces;

<?xml version='1.0' encoding="utf-8" ?>
<params>
<param>
 <value>
  <string>20020815T14:45:29</string>
 </value>
</param>
</params>

This should be;

<?xml version='1.0' encoding="utf-8" ?>
<params>
<param>
 <value>
  <dateTime.iso8601>20020815T14:45:29</dateTime.iso8601>
 </value>
</param>
</params>

Same applies for type "base64".

Using xmlrpc-epi v. 0.50

Active Windows extensions are;

What if you change:
xmlrpc_set_type ( $params, datetime ); 
to
xmlrpc_set_type ( $params, "datetime" );

As there aren't such constants defined. Anyways, your example worked fine for me with latest CVS.

Strange. Still not working with;

xmlrpc_set_type ( $params, "datetime" );

either. Perhaps an issue specific only to my install. Will try some other environments. And get back here.

Please note he stated the version that worked was the current CVS version.  So it may still not work on your PHP 4.2.2, but will be fixed in the next release (probably PHP 4.3)... try out an non-Stable snapshot and see if you can.  http://snaps.php.net.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at
http://snaps.php.net/.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Fixed in 5.2.7, 5.3, HEAD.
