[Yanel-dev] Proposal to introduce the webapp protocol

[Michael Wechner]

Hi

Currently various global file locations are hard-coded (like for example 
the login-screen XSLT)

src/webapp/src/java/org/wyona/yanel/servlet/security/impl/DefaultWebAuthenticatorImpl.java

File xsltLoginScreen = 
org.wyona.commons.io.FileUtil.file(realmDir.getAbsolutePath(), "src" + 
File.separator + "webapp" + File.separator + xsltLoginScreenDefault);
                if (!xsltLoginScreen.isFile()) xsltLoginScreen = 
org.wyona.commons.io.FileUtil.file(servletContextRealPath, 
xsltLoginScreenDefault);

I would suggest that we introduce a "webapp" protocol, whoch would then 
allow something like

href="webapp:/xslt/login-screen.xsl"

(which would be resolved to 
..../local/apache-tomcat-5.5.20/webapps/yanel/xslt/login-screen.xsl)


WDYT?

Cheers

Michi
