Hi Alex, thank you for the tip. Unfortunately, while good suggestion, it is not feasible on my case because: - the data file is compressed (and it is large), I use only ~10% of the data, searching in such a file is cumbersome (export to XML is precisely the point). - the data file from which I extract may be gone/updated by the time the extracted blobs are used.
I solved the problem by using a global variable that contains the URI. This way I don't need to change the parameter passing across hundreds of classes that don't even use it; I can use the 'extern' var directly where needed. Thanks again!
