In C you can define a function to take a variable argument list like -
xmlrpc_client_call_server (xmlrpc_env *env,
xmlrpc_server_info *server,
char *method_name,
char *args_format,
...);
- which in essence means there are as many "char *args_format"s as there
needs to be; and the function iterates through them.
I'm curious how you can 'pass on' a variable argument list; say have a
function that takes one and then passws it it another, like -
char* foobar(char* param1, char* param2, char* moreparams, ....) {
...blah...blah
xmlrpc_client_call_server (xmlrpc_env *env,
xmlrpc_server_info *server,
param2,
moreparams);
...blah...blah
return ...
}
Would that work? Would xmlrpc_client_call_server accept "moreparams"
as a bunch of arguments or would the ellipses-ness have been lost?
