Hi Ariel, Oliver,
well i didn't remember this UCB API when i have written my last comment
on Olivers posting.
But Ariel pointed out that we have this API and that of course this API
can be used to convert an URL into a system path. Advantage is that it
can be used from Basic and other languages as well.
Thanks
Ariel

Hi,
i noticed
PackageInformationProvider.get(xContext).getPackageLocation("MyExtension")
returns a string url, for example:
file:///c:/programs/soffice/OOo-dev%203/program/../share/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/61.tmp_/myextension.oxt
How can one convert the url to an external one (for example replace
the %20 with a space) ?
Is there a helper service ?
Hi Oliver
you can convert that URL to a system path:
/**
* Converts a (file) URL to a file path in system dependent notation.
* @param sFileURL
* @return
*/
public static String convertFromURL(
XComponentContext xContext,
String sFileURL) {
String sSystemPath = null;
try {
com.sun.star.ucb.XFileIdentifierConverter xFileConverter =
(com.sun.star.ucb.XFileIdentifierConverter)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
com.sun.star.ucb.XFileIdentifierConverter.class,
xContext.getServiceManager().createInstanceWithContext(
"com.sun.star.ucb.FileContentProvider", xContext));
sSystemPath =
xFileConverter.getSystemPathFromFileURL(sFileURL);
} catch (java.lang.Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
return sSystemPath;
}
}
//*********************************************************************
/**
* Converts a system path into an URL using OOo API
* @param sBase
* @param sSystemPath
* @return
*/
public static String convertToURL(
XComponentContext xContext,
String sBase,
String sSystemPath) {
String sURL = null;
try {
com.sun.star.ucb.XFileIdentifierConverter xFileConverter =
(com.sun.star.ucb.XFileIdentifierConverter)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
com.sun.star.ucb.XFileIdentifierConverter.class,
xContext.getServiceManager().createInstanceWithContext(
"com.sun.star.ucb.FileContentProvider", xContext));
sURL = xFileConverter.getFileURLFromSystemPath(
sBase, sSystemPath);
} catch (java.lang.Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
return sURL;
}
}

In Linux, if I try with the following path with non ASCII chars
/home/ariel/Música/Mozart/Die Zauberflöte, the results are
path /home/ariel/Música/Mozart/Die Zauberflöte
to URL file:///home/ariel/M%C3%BAsica/Mozart/Die%20Zauberfl%C3%B6te
from URL /home/ariel/Música/Mozart/Die Zauberflöte
Of course there is a Java-API way to achieve the same (you will find it
in [old/most/all] SKD examples), but let's use OOo API ;-)
Regards
Ariel.
