Heh. See http://drupal.org/node/28464
while trying to post to Drupal via blogapi/ecto 1.8.2, i discovered a bug in xmlrpc_value_calculate_type() that makes posting impossible. it happens here:
case 'array': return range(0, count($xmlrpc_value->data) - 1) === array_keys($xmlrpc_value->data) ? 'array' : 'struct';
for empty arrays, this returns 'struct' while it should return 'array'. because:
$xmlrpc_value->data: array () range(0, count($xmlrpc_value->data) - 1): array (0, -1) array_keys($xmlrpc_value->data): array ()
latter 2 apparently aren't identical. i'm a little uninspired at the moment, especially regarding this range() construct, and thought i post this here before i post a bug report and give it a try myself. maybe someone else (who wrote this? :)) is faster than me.
a nice weekend everyone!
