It is designed to be as simple as possible, whilst allowing complex data structures to be transmitted, processed and returned. XML-RPC has no platfor

3. If there is an enumerateID, the client should call the enumerate method again, with any parameters that are required or desired, and an enumerateID parameter containing the ID returned by the device from the previous call. This should be repeated while the device continues to provide new enumerateID values in responses. 4. After all data is returned, the device will reply with all remaining results, but no enumerateID. This method should only be called using enumerateID values as pro
