#12559 closed defect (bug) (fixed)

IXR Class strips newlines from posts

Description

Using the IXR class to fetch the latest posts using XML-RPC and 'metaWeblog.getRecentPosts', newlines are being completely stripped from the response.

This seems to be a bug in the parsing, where the response is broken down into 4096 byte chunks and stitched back together. The issue is with the trim() call on each chunk, stripping the line breaks.

Josephscott worked out a fix, and I have confirmed this to work, but I'm unsure if there are any adverse effects. Patch attached.

Probably needs some testing.. But need to check it out to see if its caused by something else in the request process..

This looks sane.

Only affects usage of IXR on outgoing requests not incoming requests.

That trim just looks bogus removing.

(In [14677]) Don't trim whitespace from sections of the response in IXR_Client. Fixes #12559 props apeatling.
