RG>You can see that the mapping file is located in relative path
..\properties\mapping.xml. How can one put the file mapping.xml in a jar file and
have castor be able to access it. I saw some mail about this in the archive along
with a modification to the Castor source, has this been implemented into a released
version of the castor source? Any help is appreciated.
Ross,
I've done this in the past, but not with Castor's descriptor files. Here's
how I grabbed an XML file out of jar file:
URL url = null;
...
url = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getSystemResource( XML );
System.out.println( "URL = " + url );
The println above then outputs the following URL:
URL = jar:file:/home/bsnyder/java/cptest/dist/cptest.jar!/user.xml
Mapping#loadMapping() is overloaded to accept a java.net.URL as a
parameter, but I'm not sure that it can handle the syntax above (where
the XML descriptor is inside the jar file - notice the bang(!)). It's
still a valid java.net.URL...
Keith, Aranud, can one of you guys answer this?
