[jira] Created: (MIME4J-155) MimeEntity should receive a new MutableBodyDescriptor for its body, and not receive the optional parent.

MimeEntity should receive a new MutableBodyDescriptor for its body, and not receive the optional parent.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MIME4J-155
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MIME4J-155
             Project: JAMES Mime4j
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.6
            Reporter: Stefano Bagnara
            Assignee: Stefano Bagnara
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.8


If we change MimeEntity to receive the MutableBodyDescriptor to be used in that entity instead of passing the parent (or null for the first one) then we can later give people more flexibility providing their own BodyDescriptor implementation.

In order to allow MimeEntity to create child instances of itself we also have to add to the MutableBodyDescript a newChild() method that creates a new child instance of itself.

This remove the knowledge of MutableBodyDescriptor implementations (Default/Maximal) from all parser classes but the MImeTokenStream and later we can try to also remove the class knowledge from there and leave it only in a default parser facility.

This will make it much more simple to let parser and field be not dependant on each other.
