There is a URL constructor that accepts a URL and a "spec" (which is, in
fact, the URL you want to parse). I didn't try it myself, yet, but it
appears you could give the constructor an unrelated URL and it will
ignore it. Something like this:
static URL bogus = new URL("http://www.google.com/";);
static URLStreamHandler nullHandler = new URLStreamHandler() {
~ public URLConnection openConnection()
~ {
~ return null;
~ }
};
URL myURL = new URL(bogus, "notes://whatever", nullHandler);

Fantastic. Hmm... I think you might have to start messing around with
the Tomcat source... maybe look at how their URLStreamHandler works (the
one Filip mentioned registers the jndi:// protocol. Perhaps there's a
way to hook into that StreamHandler without too much trouble. Otherwise,
you may have to hack the class to register your protocol as well (at
least you don't have to /handle/ the protocol, too.

That's your best bet so far, I think. I have one last trick up my sleeve
if that doesn't work.
