[Xswt-developer] handling uris for locating styles

[<ha...@id...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to integrate XSWT with a GMF (EMF+GEF++)-based tool, and one =
of
the problems I've come across is that of resolving URIs of styles. This =
is
currently done using either full URLs or URLs relative to a class (in =
the
project). This may work well for pure Java projects, but not necessarily =
for
others, e.g. I would like to refer to plugins and projects in the =
workspace.

What I would like to propose is a uri mapping interface, that handles =
two
things: 1) the mapping from an uri to an input stream: InputStream
getInputStream(String uri), and 2) resolving a relative uri in the =
context
of a base uri: String resolve(String uri, String base). A default
implementation would support the current mechanism (URLs and class =
names),
while I would be able to write a different one, e.g. utilizing EMFs URI.
