how to get path to local file

2005-06-06 22:22:38

Hi,
        I was trying to parse my xml file using catalogs when I got the
following exception:

java.net.MalformedURLException: unknown protocol: e

The problem appeared to be in the following function:

 URL newURL = new URL(testURL, spec);
(variable names changed).

The scenario is as follows:
I have a xml file that has a DOCTYPE with a public identifier. In my
catalog, I map this to a file in the local filesystem. So far so good. Now
I need to
retrieve the path to the local file by inquiring the DOM doctype object. It
returns me a string such as

'file:/e:/xslt/example.dtd'

which IMO is not a valid URL even for a local file.

How do I get path to the local file minus the file:/ stuff.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
