Hello,
even if i wasn't expecting the constructor "File(URI)", it is existant.
But then again
new File(new
URI("jar:file:/Z:/some/where.jar!/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF"))
says:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: URI is not hierarchical
I am a bit irritated about that. It looks like it looks behind the first
":", doesn't find
a "/" there, and concludes, that the file is not absolute :-(
Then I found your VFS project, but aren't much more happy yet:
In the docu it says for jar file systems:
URI Format
[...]
jar:// arch-file-uri[! absolute-path]
So, after a "jar" there must directly follow a "://".
But the example a few lines below says:
jar:../lib/classes.jar!/META-INF/manifest.mf
This is a dissarcord, isn't it?
But o.k., skip the docu and look into the API:
There is a JarFileSystem, but only with the constructor
JarFileSystem(FileName rootName, FileObject file, FileSystemOptions
fileSystemOptions)
Well, this is a bit to complicated for what I am looking for.
I would expect something I can instantiate just by giving a URI (or
actually by a URL!)
and get a InputStream. (And of course actually I would expect it in the
basic java language.)
Am I am wanting too much?
Hopefully I am just looking in the wrong corners.
Thanks for any answers,
Thomas
