---------------------------------

Joerg,

I am not asking you to support invalid URIs. 
I am trying to give properly formatter URI as per the instructions on the following page:

http://commons.apache.org/vfs/filesystems.html

The documentation says, that the correct format is 
zip:// arch-file-uri[! absolute-path]     Where arch-file-uri refers to a file of any supported type,

Now following the instructions from the same page, I construct the arch-file-uri   as follows:

file:///C:/Temp/source/test.zip 

and then construct the zip URI as follows:

zip://file:///C:/Temp/source/test.zip  

But that results into following exception:

org.apache.commons.vfs.FileSystemException: Invalid absolute URI "zip://file:///C:/Temp/source/test.zip".
	at org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.AbstractOriginatingFileProvider.findFile(AbstractOriginatingFileProvider.java:58)
	at org.apache.commons.vfs.impl.DefaultFileSystemManager.resolveFile(DefaultFileSystemManager.java:641)
	at org.apache.commons.vfs.impl.DefaultFileSystemManager.resolveFile(DefaultFileSystemManager.java:582)

After that I tried a number of different formats but nothing worked.

Thanks,
Rajiv
