MalformedURLException when using relative paths

Hi!

 

We're just upgrading from fop_0.92 to fop_0.95beta. In our Fop
Configuration File we defined a base and a font-base like this:

 

<base>./pdf_test</base>

<font-base>./pdf_test/pdf_fonts</font-base>

 

With 0.92 everything works fine but with the newer version we get the
following exception:

 

java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: ./pdf_test/

                at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:567)

                at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:464)

                at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:413)

gurator.java:203)

Are relative paths not allowed anymore? What can we do to solve this?
Are there any suggestions available?

Jacqueline.

AW: MalformedURLException when using relative paths

Posted by "Preuss, Jacqueline - ENCOWAY" <Pr...@encoway.de>.
Hi, 

thanks for your replies. I tried: file:pdf_test, file://pdf_test Works both for me, because we have our own URI Resolver Implementation. Now, we have to check whether the case path starts with file:// and remove this.

Regards,
Jacqueline.

I know it works with FOP .94 since I am doing exactly this right now.  :-)

Everything starting with file: (or anything else which looks like
an URI scheme) is by specification an absolute URL. The string
file:pdf_test is not a valid URL at all, although some libraries
will try to interpret it the way you do. I'm not sure whether FOP
does it, and I'm too tired to check the URI resolver class right
now.

Everything starting with file: (or anything else which looks like
an URI scheme) is by specification an absolute URL. The string
file:pdf_test is not a valid URL at all, although some libraries
will try to interpret it the way you do. I'm not sure whether FOP
does it, and I'm too tired to check the URI resolver class right
now.

Yes, it supports relative, but relative URLs not relative file paths.  So,
what you want it:

 

file:pdf_test

 

and

 

file:pdf_test/pdf_fonts

 

Good Luck,

 

Ted
