DESCRIPTION

       This Apache Perl module provides the ability to add support for XML-RPC protocol with easy
       configuration (either in .conf or in .htaccess file).  This functionality should give you
       lightweight option for hosting SOAP services and greatly simplify configuration aspects.
       This module inherites functionality from XMLRPC::Transport::HTTP::Apache component of
       XMLRPC::Lite module.

CONFIGURATION

       The module can be placed in <Location>, <Directory>, <Files>, <FilesMatch> directives in
       main server configuration areas or directly in .htaccess file.

       All parameters should be quoted and can be separated with commas or spaces for lists ("a,
       b, c") and with 'wide arrows' and commas for hash parameters ("key1 => value1, key2 =>
       value2").

       All options that you can find in XMLRPC::Transport::HTTP::Apache component are available
       for configuration. Here is the description of most important ones.

       dispatch_to (LIST)
           Specifies path to directory that contains Perl modules you'd like to give access to,
           or just list of modules (for preloaded modules).

             PerlSetVar dispatch_to "/Your/Path/To/Deployed/Modules, Module::Name, Module::method"

       options (HASH)
           Specifies list of options for your module, for example threshold for compression.
           Future versions will support more options. See XMLRPC::Transport::HTTP documentation
           for other options.

             PerlSetVar options "compress_threshold => 10000"
