+r"""XML-RPC Servers.
+
+This module can be used to create simple XML-RPC servers
+by creating a server and either installing functions, a
+class instance, or by extending the SimpleXMLRPCServer
+class.
+
+It can also be used to handle XML-RPC requests in a CGI
+environment using CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.
+
+The Doc* classes can be used to create XML-RPC servers that
+serve pydoc-style documentation in response to HTTP
+GET requests. This documentation is dynamically generated
+based on the functions and methods registered with the
+server.
+
+A list of possible usage patterns follows:
+
+1. Install functions:
+
+server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
+server.register_function(pow)
+server.register_function(lambda x,y: x+y, 'add')
+server.serve_forever()
+
+2. Install an instance:
+
+class MyFuncs:
+    def __init__(self):
+        # make all of the sys functions available through sys.func_name
+        import sys
+        self.sys = sys
+    def _listMethods(self):
+        # implement this method so that system.listMethods
+        # knows to advertise the sys methods
+        return list_public_methods(self) + \
+                ['sys.' + method for method in list_public_methods(self.sys)]
+    def pow(self, x, y): return pow(x, y)
+    def add(self, x, y) : return x + y
+
+server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
+server.register_introspection_functions()
+server.register_instance(MyFuncs())
+server.serve_forever()
+
+3. Install an instance with custom dispatch method:
+
+class Math:
+    def _listMethods(self):
+        # this method must be present for system.listMethods
+        # to work
+        return ['add', 'pow']
+    def _methodHelp(self, method):
+        # this method must be present for system.methodHelp
+        # to work
+        if method == 'add':
+            return "add(2,3) => 5"
+        elif method == 'pow':
+            return "pow(x, y[, z]) => number"
+        else:
+            # By convention, return empty
+            # string if no help is available
+            return ""
+    def _dispatch(self, method, params):
+        if method == 'pow':
+            return pow(*params)
+        elif method == 'add':
+            return params[0] + params[1]
+        else:
+            raise ValueError('bad method')
+
+server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
+server.register_introspection_functions()
+server.register_instance(Math())
+server.serve_forever()
+
+4. Subclass SimpleXMLRPCServer:
+
+class MathServer(SimpleXMLRPCServer):
+    def _dispatch(self, method, params):
+        try:
+            # We are forcing the 'export_' prefix on methods that are
+            # callable through XML-RPC to prevent potential security
+            # problems
+            func = getattr(self, 'export_' + method)
+        except AttributeError:
+            raise Exception('method "%s" is not supported' % method)
+        else:
+            return func(*params)
+
+    def export_add(self, x, y):
+        return x + y
+
+server = MathServer(("localhost", 8000))
+server.serve_forever()
+
+5. CGI script:
+
+server = CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler()
+server.register_function(pow)
+server.handle_request()
