Resolve a relative URI with respect to the base URI of the application. The resolved URI returned by this method is normalized. If the supplied URI is already resolved, it is just returned.
Params:
  • uri – URI to resolve against the base URI of the application.
Returns:newly resolved URI or supplied URI if already resolved.
Since:2.0
/** * Resolve a relative URI with respect to the base URI of the application. The resolved URI returned by this method is * normalized. If the supplied URI is already resolved, it is just returned. * * @param uri URI to resolve against the base URI of the application. * @return newly resolved URI or supplied URI if already resolved. * @since 2.0 */
public URI resolve(URI uri);
Relativize a URI with respect to the current request URI. Relativization works as follows:
  1. If the URI to relativize is already relative, it is first resolved using resolve(URI).
  2. The resulting URI is relativized with respect to the current request URI. If the two URIs do not share a prefix, the URI computed in step 1 is returned.

Examples (for base URI http://example.com:8080/app/root/):

Request URI: http://example.com:8080/app/root/a/b/c/resource.html
Supplied URI: a/b/c/d/file.txt
Returned URI: d/file.txt

Request URI: http://example.com:8080/app/root/a/b/c/resource.html
Supplied URI: http://example2.com:9090/app2/root2/a/d/file.txt
Returned URI: http://example2.com:9090/app2/root2/a/d/file.txt

In the second example, the supplied URI is returned given that it is absolute and there is no common prefix between it and the request URI.

Params:
  • uri – URI to relativize against the request URI.
Throws:
Returns:newly relativized URI.
