/** @file evrpc.h
 *
 * This header files provides basic support for an RPC server and client.
 *
 * To support RPCs in a server, every supported RPC command needs to be
 * defined and registered.
 *
 * EVRPC_HEADER(SendCommand, Request, Reply);
 *
 *  SendCommand is the name of the RPC command.
 *  Request is the name of a structure generated by event_rpcgen.py.
 *    It contains all parameters relating to the SendCommand RPC.  The
 *    server needs to fill in the Reply structure.
 *  Reply is the name of a structure generated by event_rpcgen.py.  It
 *    contains the answer to the RPC.
 *
 * To register an RPC with an HTTP server, you need to first create an RPC
 * base with:
 *
 *   struct evrpc_base *base = evrpc_init(http);
 *
 * A specific RPC can then be registered with
 *
 * EVRPC_REGISTER(base, SendCommand, Request, Reply,  FunctionCB, arg);
 *
 * when the server receives an appropriately formatted RPC, the user callback
 * is invokved.   The callback needs to fill in the reply structure.
 *
 * void FunctionCB(EVRPC_STRUCT(SendCommand)* rpc, void *arg);
 *
 * To send the reply, call EVRPC_REQUEST_DONE(rpc);
 *
 * See the regression test for an example.
