I have a little OBA Flowchart utility that I am trying to turn into a
VASL extension. For someone who knew what they were doing, this would
probably be a 30 minute job, but I've spent a few hours on it and not
been able to get it to work.
Is there someone who has created a VASL extension who would be willing
to hold my hand through it the first time so I can figure out off of
the things I am doing wrong?
A couple of initial questions....
The .mdx extension file is supposed to be a zip archive. Will a jar
work? I already have an ant script that builds me a jar with my code
in it and I just had it include the buildFile at the root. It seems to
work but just want to make sure there's no catch.
My code when run from the jar file loads up an xml data file that is
also included in the jar. It uses the following code to load the XML
file from the jar:
OBAFlowchart.class.getResourceAsStream("OBAFlowchart.xml")
Any idea if this would work when running as an extension? If not, is
there another way to load a data file like this without converting it
into some big java static structure?
Thanks for any help. I think this would be a handy addition to VASL,
and would really like to get it off the ground.
