[vfs] howto resolveFile an utf-8 url encoded uri

[Irune Prado <ip...@zylk.net>]

Hi there!

It's the first time I use vfs so maybe it's just a common mistake but I've not been able to make it work appropriately.
I need to fetch a webdav file so my code it's something like this:

<pre>
URI inputFileUri = normalizarURI(inputFile);
FileSystemManager fsManager = VFS.getManager();
FileObject sourceFile = fsManager.resolveFile(inputFileUri.toString());
return sourceFile.getContent().getInputStream();
</pre>

To the point of the third line inputFileUri's value is something like
<pre>
webdav://ipa001:****@alf.zylk.net:8080/alfresco/webdav/webdav/Zylk/Guest/irune/sinadura%20webdav%20 [^]
test%20%c3%a1%c3%a9i%c3%b3%c3%ba%c3%b1_%c3%b1/pdf%20con%20espacios.pdf
</pre>

which stands for
<pre>
/irune/sinadura webdav test áéióúñ_ñ/pdf con espacios.pdf
</pre>

The problem is that I get the following exception
<pre>
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.commons.vfs2.FileSystemException: GET method failed 
for "webdav://alf.zylk.net:8080/alfresco/webdav/webdav/Zylk/Guest/irune/sinadura webdav test Ã
¡Ã©ióúñ_ñ/pdf con espacios.pdf".
</pre>

This is due to the url being decoded with ISO-8859-1 instead of UTF-8.

I lack the proper knowledge to understand low level programing but I've reached the point in which this URI is decoded in the file
'org.apache.commons.vfs2.provider.URIParser' method 'canonicalizePath' and it seems as if the canonicalization doesn't do it in the utf-8 way (variable lenght).

__

I've fixed my problem with a normalization of the inputFileURI, making a utf-8 url decode and then an iso-8859-1 url encode and this way vfs fetch the file correctly.

I think there may be another way of doing it but I've not been able to find it.... any tips?

Thx in advance,
