This is actually only part one, i.e. with this commit if the user adds a
PacketExtension to an IQ it will be included in IQ.toXml(). Which was
previously only the case if the IQ subclass explicitly included packet
extensions.
The second part of the change is to change the IQ provider, so that
packet extensions are automatically parsed.
Cases where PacketExtensions are used for Message and IQ are slightly
changed. The IQ sublcass now only has a field with this
PacketExtension (see for example
bytestreams.ibb.packet.DataPacketExtension).
Also changed hoxt API: Removed unnecessary indirection and made the
API more Smack idiomatic.
apply the Manager pattern to 'muc'. This prevents the user creating
multiple MultiUserChat instances for the same MUC.
Move the static method from MultiUserChat to MultiUserChatManager.
Also add AbstractNodeInformationProvider.
Using
createPacketCollector(filter);
sendPacket(packet);
was error prone, i.e. the PacketCollector could leak if sendPacket()
would throw an exception and the user forgot to call
PacketCollector.cancel(). For cases where
createPacketCollectorAndSend(IQ) is not sufficient (because we don't
send IQs), createPacketCollectorAndSend(PacketFilter, Packet) is now
used, which does take care that the PacketCollector does not leak if
sendPacket() throws an Exception.
this is the first stop towards fixing "SMACK-65: parsing should look for
depth", by providing the initial parsing depth to the provider. Some
methods (.e.g parseMessage) now use the depth as abort condition,
instead of a unclean String equals check.
parseIQ() and parseExtension() where both renamed to parse.
This also restricts the Exceptions thrown by the parse method, to just
XmlPullParserException, IOException and SmackException (not really a big
victory, but nevertheless a slight improvement).
StreamFeatureProvider is now gone, we simply use PacketExtensionProvider
for stream features.
This will help to get rid of repetitive class casts, and make
PacketCollector api more inline with itself (since some methods
are already generic return methods).
Because of OSGi, no subproject of Smack (which is the same as a OSGi
bundle) must export a package that is already exported by another
subproject.
Therefore it was necessary to move the TCP and BOSH code into their own
packages: org.jivesoftware.smack.(tcp|bosh).
OSGi classloader restrictions also made it necessary to create a
Declarative Service for smack-extensions, smack-experimental and
smack-lagacy (i.e. smack subprojects which should be initialized), in
order to initialize them accordingly, as smack-core is, when used in a
OSGi environment, unable to load and initialize classes from other smack
bundles. OSGi's "Service Component Runtime" (SCR) will now take care of
running the initialization code of the particular Smack bundle by
activating its Declarative Service.
That is also the reason why most initialization related method now have an
additional classloader argument.
Note that due the refactoring, some ugly changes in XMPPTCPConnection
and its PacketReader and PacketWriter where necessary.
instead of using the old baseName=smack appendix=project.name approach,
we are now going convention over configuration and renaming the
subprojects directories to the proper name.
Having a prefix is actually very helpful, because the resulting
libraries will be named like the subproject. And a core-4.0.0-rc1.jar is
not as explicit about what it actually *is* as a
smack-core-4.0.0-rc1.jar.
