Hi Edwin,
I committed support for a WEBAPP_CONTEXT_PATH configuration
parameter. Can you please check if this works as needed. I don't have
a suitable software stack installed for this. I actually needed the
configuration parameter, because besides generating the URLs, RIFE
needs to detect which part of the URL is intended for the engine (and
the elements). It needs the webapp context path to be available so
that it can be stripped away.
Hope this works.
Best regards,
Geert

Hi Geert,
I can see what you mean, absolute paths are fine, as long as there
is a possiblility to generate correct urls without to much fuss...;-)

(note, RIFE really generates absolute paths, not absolute URLs since
the protocol and the domain name are not included)
I think that generating relative paths would actually create more
problems and be more confusing. It doesn't mean that absolute paths
will not be needed anymore. For example, you should use still be able
to easily generate absolute URLs inside REST responses, emails, ...
This means that there has to also be a second set of methods to
obtain relative paths as opposed to the current absolute ones
(getSubmissionQueryUrlRelative or so) and you'll have to still
introduce that configuration parameter to have the absolute URLs
being generated correctly.
I think it's much clearer to generate them with just one approach,
ie. absolute paths.
