base dir problem - a example solution

[Holger Prause]

Hello,

All ppl who know what a basedir is and how to use it, pls ignore that
posting.


I needed some time to understand how i can use relative paths with fop
u need to set the baseDir: this allows u to configure FOP to start all
relative paths at a certain directory

for all ppl which have to set the baseDir

Heres an example method how to set the basedir:

public void setBaseDirUrl(File baseDir) {
        try {
              String baseDirPath = baseDir.toURL().toString();
              org.apache.fop.configuration.Configuration.put("baseDir",
baseDirPath);
        }
        catch(MalformedURLException mue) {
              mue.printStackTrace();
        }
}
