40  * This header files provides basic support for an RPC server and client.
41  *
42  * To support RPCs in a server, every supported RPC command needs to be
43  * defined and registered.
44  *
45  * EVRPC_HEADER(SendCommand, Request, Reply);
46  *
47  *  SendCommand is the name of the RPC command.
48  *  Request is the name of a structure generated by event_rpcgen.py.
49  *    It contains all parameters relating to the SendCommand RPC.  The
50  *    server needs to fill in the Reply structure.
51  *  Reply is the name of a structure generated by event_rpcgen.py.  It
52  *    contains the answer to the RPC.
53  *
54  * To register an RPC with an HTTP server, you need to first create an RPC
55  * base with:
56  *
57  *   struct evrpc_base *base = evrpc_init(http);
58  *
59  * A specific RPC can then be registered with
60  *
61  * EVRPC_REGISTER(base, SendCommand, Request, Reply,  FunctionCB, arg);
62  *
63  * when the server receives an appropriately formatted RPC, the user callback
64  * is invoked.   The callback needs to fill in the reply structure.
65  *
66  * void FunctionCB(EVRPC_STRUCT(SendCommand)* rpc, void *arg);
67  *
68  * To send the reply, call EVRPC_REQUEST_DONE(rpc);
69  *
70  * See the regression test for an example.
