Changing connection parameters or XML Parser

You could change the Webservice implementation, that means mainly the HTTP client parameters and XML parser, this way:

• make a new Class implementing the org.musicbrainz.webservice.WebService interface. maybe extending org.musicbrainz.webservice.DefaultWebService. (i.e. call it MyWebServiceImplementation).

• set RUNTIME controllers to use it:

Controller controller = new Controller();
controller.setQueryWs(new MyWebServiceImplementation());
...

remember that annotations reside in a different host domain, so if you change the webservice implementation you should do the same for annotations.

Example

(see: org.muscibrainz.junit.unitTests.synopsisUseCase10)


String name = "pink floyd";
        
MyWebServiceImplementation myQueryWs = new MyWebServiceImplementation();

MyWebServiceImplementation myAnnotationsWs = new MyWebServiceImplementation();
        
((DefaultWebServiceWs2)myAnnotationsWs).setHost("search.musicbrainz.org");
        
Artist artist = new Artist();
artist.setQueryWs(myQueryWs);
artist.setAnnotationWs(myAnnotationsWs);
artist.search(name);
...
artist = new Artist();
artist.setQueryWs(myQueryWs);
artist.setAnnotationWs(myAnnotationsWs);
artist.getComplete(pinkFloyd);
