Description Jesse Glick 2001-06-30 17:50:30 UTC 
The attached patch (applies to java and javadoc modules, very similar in both)
sets the system name of any automatically mounted archives according to the
location (resource path) of the XML file defining them. This is useful because
then the system name is statically deterministic. For example, when mounting a
Javadoc ZIP this way, it is possible to create a static URL (nbfs: and based on
XML location) that will refer to some page in the Javadoc no matter where the
ZIP is physically mounted from.

#13337 makes it occasionally treat the contents of the archive (considered as a
JarFileSystem) be invalid in the FileObject sense, but not reproducibly.

Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2001-07-01 22:35:53 UTC 
More news: now [dev jul 1] seems that sometimes the javadoc ZIP
appears as a regular mount, i.e. visible and with the standard rather
than javadoc capabilities. No idea why this would happen.
Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2001-07-13 17:33:49 UTC 
Now that #13337 is fixed, I verified that this patch works in the
