Rename XMLWriter (and XMLResponseWriter) to SolrXmlResponseWriter
-----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-1648
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1648
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Response Writers
    Affects Versions: 1.4, 1.3, 1.2
         Environment: My local MacBook pro over the Christmas Break.
            Reporter: Chris A. Mattmann
             Fix For: 1.5


The current XMLWriter class is kind of a misnomer. It's not a generic XMLWriter 
by any means, and that's not its intention. Its intention is to write instances 
(as responses) of a particular XML schema that SOLR clients (written in Java, 
Python, pick-your-favorite-programming-language) that speak its XML protocol 
can understand. So, we should rename it to SolrXmlResponseWriter to indicate 
its unique XML speak.

Morever, as part of the next issue I'm going to report (refactoring all 
ResponseWriters to be a bit more friendly), we should probably do away with the 
current XmlResponseWriter (which simply delegates to XmlWriter -- eeep) and 
just stick with SolrXmlResponseWriter. Patch forthcoming.
