Apply builder pattern to form fields and replace getVariable() with
getFieldName(). Refer to the field name as "field name" instead of
"variable" everyone, just as XEP-0004 does.
Improve the high-level form API: introduce FilledForm and FillableForm
which perform stronger validation and consistency checks.
Also add FormFieldRegistry to enable processing of 'submit' forms
where the form field types are omitted.
Smack also now does omit the form field type declaration on 'submit'
type forms, as it is allowed by XEP-0004.
- Reduce the amount of types that are subtypes of NamedElement. See
javadoc of NamedElement for rationale.
- Work more with XmlEnvironment in XmlStringBuilder.
- Some minor changes to XmlStringBuilder API.
b71039660b made FormField.setType(Type)
throw an illegal argument exception if type is fixed, but the
DataFormProvider was not changed, so it still would call
setType(Type.fixed).
Change DataFormProvider so that the non-argument constructer of
FormField is used when type == fixed.
Data Forms Validation are a part of Data Fields and implemented as
extensions, added to a Datafield.
Data validation extensions are validated before adding to the message,
using the consistency rules as described in the XEP.
Fixes SMACK-621.
Minor modifications done by Florian Schmaus <flo@geekplace.eu>
by using XmlStringBuilder. Fixes SMACK-577
Also extend LazyStringBuilder with a cache. And extend XmlStringBuilder
with some more convenience methods.
Move the ELEMENT and NAMESPACE definition from Form to DataForm, where
it belongs.
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.
