I was looking at adding support to the XPathEntityProcessor for a
DeltaImport by adding a new parameter, deltaUrl, in order to support
harvesting from an OAI-PMH server into SOLR. I wasn't planning on
bothering with getting commit access to the repository so I was
looking to extend the XPathEntityProcessor in my own package. I ran
into a problem because most of the methods on the class are private
instead of protected. I only want to override a methods and not all of
them.
Should I just modify the XPathEntityProcessor to add the functionality
and submit a patch instead of trying to write my own class that
extends the XPathEntityProcessor?
Was there a reason for making the methods be private?
