encapsulates access to the current office installation directory and
office user data directory, provides functionality to create URLs
containing relocatable (not absolute) references to the current office
installation directory and user data directory and vice versa.
This functionality is useful when data containing references to the
current office installation directory must be made persistent and re-read
later. In many cases, storing the reference directly would destroy the
relocatability of an office installation.
returns the absolute URL containing the directory where the current
office installation expects its user data (e.g.
"file:///home/kso/.openoffice.org".)
returns the absolute URL containing the directory where the current
office installation expects its user data (e.g.
"file:///home/kso/.openoffice.org".)
Returns
the absolute URL containing the directory of the current office
user data.
If the given URL contains an absolute reference to the current office
installation directory or office user data directory, this method will
replace the absolute reference by an opaque placeholder string.
makeRelocatableURL must be used in order to re-replace the
placeholder by an absolute reference.
Parameter URL
The URL for that a relocatable URL is requested. In case the URL does
not contain a reference to the current office installation or to the office
user data directory, the input URL will be returned unchanged.
If the given URL contains a placeholder for an absolute reference to
the current office installation directory or for the office user data
directory, that was created using makeRelocatableURL, the
respective placeholder will be replaced by an absolute reference to the
current office installation directory or office user data directory.
Parameter URL
The URL for that an absolaute URL is requested. In case the URL does
not contain the opaque relocation placholder used by
makeRelocatableURL, the input URL will be returned
unchanged.
