--------------

XML-RPC is a Remote Procedure Call method that uses XML passed via HTTP(S) as a
transport. With it, a client can call methods with parameters on a remote
transport. With it, a client can call methods with arguments on a remote
server (the server is named by a URI) and get back structured data. This module
supports writing XML-RPC client code; it handles all the details of translating
between conformable Python objects and XML on the wire.

This method takes one argument, the name of a method implemented by the XML-RPC
server. It returns an array of possible signatures for this method. A signature
is an array of types. The first of these types is the return type of the method,
the rest are parameters.

Signatures themselves are restricted to the top level parameters expected by a
method. For instance if a method expects one array of structs as a parameter,
method. For instance if a method expects one array of structs as a argument,
and it returns a string, its signature is simply "string, array". If it expects
three integers and returns a string, its signature is "string, int, int, int".
