Get codebase from JNLP files (Web Start)
----------------------------------------
Key: PIVOT-822
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-822
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Sandro Martini
Assignee: Sandro Martini
Fix For: 2.1
Like Applets (that read codebase from the html page), read the codebase from
the related JNLP file (using Web Start) for deploy.
So in DesktopApplicationContext, make a private static method that tries to get
the codebase from Web Start BasicService, and if successful, set the
webStartEnabled flag (to be put in ApplicationContext) ... and if possible set
the origin property with the retrieved codebase (maybe only when origin is
null).
Verify (with other Pivot Developers) if it's right to require Web Start jar
even at compile time (like was some time ago), because some casts are even
required in this new code (so all dynamic doesnt' makes sense).
Then, revert changes to build.properties and build.xml just committed as
PIVOT-733 (and maybe even demo.jnlp.xsl to remove the root tag), and maybe make
a little change even in LargeData.java (if needed).
