[jsword-devel] NullPointer in JSword, at runtime using the maven dependency

Ok, so here's an answer to this weird problem... As DM said, it seemed to be
a classpath issue, but then since NetUtils is being executed, at least part
of the jar file is being found. And the maven output shows it's on the path.
But here's what is happening:
- My Maven repository is located on Windows under c:\Documents and
Settings\username\.m2
The following method in NetUtils returns a null because a URISyntaxException
is being caught
public static URI toURI(URL url) {
try {
return new URI(url.toExternalForm());
} catch (URISyntaxException e) {
return null;
}
}
Now the reason for that is "Illegal character in opaque part at index 22:
jar:file:/C:/Documents and"
That character is a space character. It seems the toExternalForm() method
doesn't like the space. Perhaps because the space should probably be a %20?
(haven't tried that).
My quick workaround is to do as suggested on this post:
http://www.mail-archive.com/users@maven.apache.org/msg84160.html and rewrite
my Maven settings.xml so that the local repository is at
c:\Docume~1\username\.m2
A better solution would be to do the following to test whether we can pass a
URL encoded form to the URL object above (I assume that will have quite a
lot of impact so we'd need to test this quite a bit)
Also perhaps some logging of the exception would be nice.
I assume people will have the same problem if they happen to install Bible
Desktop at c:\bible desktop\ because of the space (but again haven't tested)
Happy to try and create a patch for it, or not.
Cheers
Chris :)
