+ * 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 invoked. 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.
