Feature #3090: xml-rpc support for i8 data type

• Status: Closed
• Assignee: -
• Target version: 2.0.0

[stancon (Stas Kelvich)]

=begin
Some XML-RPC libraries (for example xmlrpc-c) use 8-byte integer data type .... In existing version lib/xmlrpc just erase this variables. Support for this data type can be painlessly added to ruby core xmlrpc library. Patch is attached.
=end

is there a reason why this patch was postponed to 2.0.0 and not included in one of the releases this year?
