ExtensionElement is now a marker interface that requires all
implementation non-abstract classes to carry a static final QNAME
field (of type QName). This is verified by a new unit test.
Also FullyQualifiedElement is renamed to simply XmlElement. XmlElement
is used over ExtensionElement when implementing classes do not
statically know the qualified name of the XML elements they
represent. In general, XmlElement should be used sparingly, and every
XML element should be modeled by its own Java class (implementing
ExtensionElement).
This commit adds
- SmackReactor / NIO
- a framework for finite state machine connections
- support for Java 8
- pretty printed XML debug output
It also
- reworks the integration test framework
- raises the minimum Android API level to 19
- introduces XmppNioTcpConnection
Furthermore fixes SMACK-801 (at least partly). Java 8 language
features are available, but not all runtime library methods. For that
we would need to raise the Android API level to 24 or higher.
