Jochen Wiedmann commented on XMLRPC-116:
----------------------------------------

Jimisola, as you may have noted, I have applied a modified version of your 
patch for XMLRPC-117. In other words, this patch is no longer valid. Please be 
so kind to submit an updated version.

Additionally, you might consider to configure the new servlet properties (as 
introduced with XMLRPC-117) via the reflection utilities.


> XmlRpcServlet.init(...) should support init params using reflection and not 
> only hardcoded support for the init param "enabledForExtensions"

> XmlRpcServlet currently doesn't support any other init param other than 
> "enabledForExtension" which means that people will have to subclass 
> XmlRpcServlet if they want to set e.g. contentLengthOptional.
> After a discussion in xmlrpc-dev the following solution was decided upon:
> 1. iterate over ServletConfig.getInitParameterNames
> 2. foreach init param name check if there is a corresponding setter method 
> (setter can only have one argument)
> 3. convert init param value to the data type that the setters argument has
> Q: In step 3) what data types should be supported? byte, short, int, long, 
> float, double and String?
> A: Should simply reuse code from the ReflectionUtils. (Don't remember the 
> class name right now, but there is existing functionality, which is used by 
> the AbstractReflectiveXmlRpcHandlerMapping.
> Q: What exception should be thrown (ServletException?) if no matching method 
> can be found in step 2) or data type conversion fails in step 3)? 
> A: A ServletException mapping the actual exception (for example
> IllegalArgumentException).
