XmlRpc for the Scala programming language

This work is to enable the use of Scala in multi-language applications, taking advantage of every framework strengths and libraries through web-services communication.

Implementation

Server-side as a Servlet in a Tomcat or compatible environment, following Burak Emir's example servlets and with apache.org Commons libraries.

Client-Side will use apache.org Commons HttpClient library.

Protocols

The XmlRpc has been chosen first as a simple and widely supported protocol.

The Hessian binary web-services protocol is on the work plan because of the lesser overhead.
