I was asked to deploy an application to Weblogic and iText started blowing up
because it didn't understand the URL's I was giving it. The reason is that on
weblogic, ClassLoader.getResource() is typically going to to return a "zip:"
URL instead of "file:" or "jar:". I downloaded the source for version 2.17 &
found this line of code in com.lowagie.text.pdf. RandomAccessFileOrArray (line
91):
if (filename.startsWith("file:/") || filename.startsWith("http://";)
|| filename.startsWith("https://";) || filename.startsWith("jar:")) {
When that evaluates to true, iText treats filename as a URL. I added a
|| filename.startsWith("zip:")
to this, and now everything works fine on Weblogic. So: Could I get somebody
to add this to the next version of iText?
