[Patch] CallMethodRule/CallParamRule 

           Summary: [Patch] CallMethodRule/CallParamRule
           Product: Commons
           Version: 1.3 Final
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Digester
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I have a use case which can't be done with the Digester's standard rules. (I
hope I haven't overlooked Digester's API.) After some experiment, I realized
with some enhancement I could make CallMethodRule/CallParamRule work. I think
the use case is pretty common and generic.

The use case is like this: I need to call a 3rd party API

  Parent.add(Child child, Condition condition)

with the XML data:


  <parent>
    <child .../>
    <condition .../>
  </parent>


I can't use SetNextRule as it takes only one object from the stack.
CallMethodRule/CallParamRule comes close, but it allows only parameters coming
from body texts or attributes, not generic objects from the stack.

So, I made the following changes to CallMethodRule/CallParamRule:

   * Changed the param stack frame datatype from String[] to Object[]
   * Overloaded CallParamRule to allow configuration to get the parameter from
the stack
   * Made CallParamRule stateless so that it works probably in nesting
