public class SystemIDResolver
extends java.lang.Object

This class is used to resolve relative URIs and SystemID strings into absolute URIs.

This is a generic utility for resolving URIs, other than the fact that it's declared to throw TransformerException. Please see code comments for details on how resolution is performed.

Usage:
**For internal use only**

Method Detail

getAbsoluteURIFromRelative

public static java.lang.String getAbsoluteURIFromRelative(java.lang.String localPath)
Get an absolute URI from a given relative URI (local path).

The relative URI is a local filesystem path. The path can be absolute or relative. If it is a relative path, it is resolved relative to the system property "user.dir" if it is available; if not (i.e. in an Applet perhaps which throws SecurityException) then we just return the relative path. The space and backslash characters are also replaced to generate a good absolute URI.

Parameters:
localPath - The relative URI to resolve
Returns:
Resolved absolute URI

isAbsoluteURI

public static boolean isAbsoluteURI(java.lang.String systemId)
Return true if the systemId denotes an absolute URI .
Parameters:
systemId - The systemId string
Returns:
true if the systemId is an an absolute URI

isAbsolutePath

public static boolean isAbsolutePath(java.lang.String systemId)
Return true if the local path is an absolute path.
Parameters:
systemId - The path string
Returns:
true if the path is absolute

getAbsoluteURI

public static java.lang.String getAbsoluteURI(java.lang.String systemId)
Take a SystemID string and try to turn it into a good absolute URI.
Parameters:
systemId - A URI string, which may be absolute or relative.
Returns:
The resolved absolute URI

getAbsoluteURI

public static java.lang.String getAbsoluteURI(java.lang.String urlString,
                                              java.lang.String base)
                                       throws TransformerException
Take a SystemID string and try to turn it into a good absolute URI.
Parameters:
urlString - SystemID string
base - The URI string used as the base for resolving the systemID
Returns:
The resolved absolute URI
Throws:
TransformerException - thrown if the string can't be turned into a URI.
