xmlrpc_annotations
    by Alex Young
    http://github.com/regularfry/xmlrpc_annotations

== DESCRIPTION:

A library for adding annotations to XMLRPC server classes that allows
autogeneration of C# interface files for use with the XMLRPC.NET library.

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

* Structs, array types and void types are supported
* C# is currently hard-coded. The next revision will factor templating
  out into a separate class to allow document generation.

== SYNOPSIS:

Mixing XMLRPC::Annotations in like this:

  require 'xmlrpc/annotations'

  class Foo
    extend XMLRPC::Annotations

    def bar(a,b,opts)
      puts opts[:name]
      return [1.0, 2.0]
    end  

    xmlrpc_method :foo,
      :expects => [:string, any_of(:string, :int), struct_with([{:name => :string}])], 
      :returns => list_of(:double)
  end

  puts Foo.to_csharp

outputs:

  using System;
  using CookComputing.XmlRpc;

  namespace Rodents
  {
    namespace Bar
    {
      [XmlRpcMissingMapping(MappingAction.Ignore)]
      public struct FooStruct
      {
        public string name;
      }
    }

    public interface IBar : IXmlRpcProxy
    {
      [XmlRpcMethod("bar.foo")]
      double[] Foo(string a, System.Object b, Bar.FooStruct c);

    }
  }
