Re: OGOJOGI XmlRpcPerson.updateJob

Hi murphee,

your objection with the nonexistance of a updateJob method made me 
reflective. I looked up the XML-RPC manual and found that in the manual 
there is a updateJob method for jobs and person object. BUT: 
person.updateJob isn't explained. There is something about person.get. 
job.updateJob isn't explained correctly. There is something about 
person.updateJob, but it is in the job section.

In order to eliminate the obscurities I added a updateJob method in 
XmlRpcJob. The updateJob method already existed in XmlRpcPerson but with 
a big TODO above in the sourcecode. The result is the 
NullPointerException disappeared and I get in both cases 
"org.opengroupware.jogi.ogo.OgoException: NoSuchAction: action not 
implemented"

It seems I have to create an own jobUpdate functionality based on delete 
and insert because there is no adequate XML-RPC method.

Thanks a lot for your help @ murphee and Helge
