[scxml] src and relative url

[Fabrizio Morbini <fm...@gmail.com>]

Hi, i'm using the src attribute to include external content (i haven't
yet spent time in figuring our how to use xinclude).
I load the initial scxml file using a url like "file:C:/path/file.scxml".
Inside file.scxml some node uses the src attribute set to (for
example) src="include1.scxml#node34".
When it gets parsed the urlResolver.resolvePath has as baseURL the
complete "file:C:/path/file.scxml" and as ctxPath the string
"include1.scxml", the merging results in an absolute url:
"file:/include1.scxml" instead of the desired
"file:C:/path/include1.scxml".

is there a better alternative than modify the urlResolver (by removing
the file.scxml part from the baseURL) to get the desired merged path
when using the method resolvePath?

thanks,
fabrizio.

OK, as long as you're aware its deprecated usage.

The portable way is to put the SCXML files as resources on application
classpath and use the getResource() method of the appropriate
ClassLoader to get the URL (this will also resolve src attributes
correctly).
