API for obtaining absolute URL of the page?
Just curious, if there is an API that could create absolute URL of the given
page?
Looking at Link interface, there IS a method createAbsoluteURI(), but it
creates only URI, not URL meaningful for outside world. Still this kind of
API would be very useful, for example for RSS feeds, mail notifications and
any other sort of content that is not viewed on the website itself.
I know that it's possible to @Inject HttpServletRequest and obtain all
necessary data from it, but maybe I'm missing some easier way to do that?

Hi Ilya,
IMHO I don't think this should be a Tapestry function, constructing an absolute URL is not always perfectly generic... i.e.: detecting SSL, port and hostname reliably to construct the URL from. Sometimes people configure SSL on non-standard ports, and browser headers are at best inconsistent. Since the servlet API provides what you need, (and only requires you to write a small block of code), it should suffice. But what I am getting at is that this code tends to be tied to your applications runtime environment.
Kind regards,
Peter

Probably you've misunderstood my question.
My goal was not to create absolute URI (which is absolute only within a
single website), but full external URL that may appear, for example, in RSS
feed or mail notification.
toAbsoluteURI () method creates exactly what it says:
"Converts the link to an absolute URI, a complete path, starting with a
leading slash."

hi
just inject the LinkSource service and create a Link
object which can generate the absolute URL of a page:
@Inject
private LinkSource linkSource;
@Inject
private ComponentResources resources;
public void create() {
String absolute =
linkSource.createPageRenderLink(resources.getPageName(),
false).toAbsoluteURI();
}
g,
kris
