Why would you want to make a non-swig version of the ESL lib? The whole point is to make sure you get a reliable client. Everyone who tries to make their own runs into one of many challenges that are hard to overcome in a script lang. This is why you have the benefit of the wrapped C lib. xml_rpc has a bit less capability and is for sure less stable and scalable when put head to head with ESL. I wrote both of them myself so I'm not driven by affinity to one or the other. AFAIK xml_rpc is stable but the lib used is not so hot and I always wanted to use something better.

I sort of figured someone would say that. Actually mod_xml_rpc seems to be similar to mod_xml_curl. Since I already have that mod_xml_curl fetches from my app working well I don’t think I will switch that. Also just read that fs_cli uses ESL so that has sold me on sticking with it. I just want to make sure I am not using features that are a bit on the fringe where it’s not very active, well tested, and fixes don’t come along very often.

They are completely different tools for different jobs, not a one or the other situation.

I am trying to update an old abandoned app (WikiPBX) which is written using Django Python and uses mod_event_socket and mod_xml_curl to talk with Freeswitch.
I’ve got most things working except the most important part which is mod_event_socket. Now I found mod_xml_rpc which seems like a better way to go.
Just wanted to get some opinions which is the better api interface before I get too far into trying to get mod_even_socket working properly. So far it’s been quite the headache. I am currently looking at fusionpbx and bluebox code to see what they are doing.
