File-Serializer Directory problems

Ryan Puddephatt

Hi all,

            I’m having problems with the File-Serializer. I managed to get it working locally because I know the directory structure and on our UNIX development server, again because I know and have access to the directory. The problem is when I move it to our other servers, I don’t have access to these apart from web-based, although I could find out the directory structure, I can’t change it! Is there any way to make the file-serializer run off oxf: or be in relation to the XPL calling it?

 

Thanks

Ryan,

Currently, this is not possible. If you use a relative path, it is going
to be relative to the Java VM's current working directory, which is
likely to make no sense at all.

You can try the URL serializer, and see if the oxf: protocol works. It
should work, but we haven't used this in a long time!

Also, the URL serializer doesn't have the new functionality of the File
serializer, which allows it to write binary and text documents.
Currently, the URL serializer only works like the old File serializer
did, which means you can only write XML documents.

We have been thinking for a while about merging File serializer and URL
serializer. That wouldn't be too difficult. In the end, we wouldn't even
need the File serializer, really, as the URL serializer would address
writing to oxf: as well as file:.
