Seems to me FopFactory.setFontBaseURL(String s) is broken?
Forgive the reflection calls (long story).
File fontsdir = new File(bundlePath + fopHome + "/fonts");
URL fontsURL = fontsdir.toURI().toURL();
setFontBaseURLMethod.invoke(fopFactory, fontsURL.toExternalForm());
works fine when the directory is, shall we say, normal, but if the
directory has a space the method appears to eat the "%20".
Caused by: java.net.MalformedURLException: Illegal character in path at
index 23: file:///d1/rework/acres
install/ac47/eclipse/plugins/com.amirsys.console_4.6.0/fop/fop100/fop/fonts/
bundlePath=/d1/rework/acres install/ac47/eclipe/plugins
fopHome=com.amirsys.console_4.6.0/fop/fop100/fop
I've written a test jig to see what File.toURI().toURL() does:
import java.net.URL;
import java.io.File;
public class FileURL {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
File f = new File(args[0]);
URL furl = f.toURI().toURL();
System.out.println(furl.toString());
System.out.println(furl.toExternalForm());
}
catch (java.net.MalformedURLException mue) {
mue.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
And that reports what I expected, an encoded path:
java -cp . FileURL /d1/rework/acres\ install/ac47
file:/d1/rework/acres%20install/ac47/
file:/d1/rework/acres%20install/ac47/
I hope someone has a better plan.
I do think that the FOP api should be changed to take a URL rather than
a string, but that's for another day.
