Branding with RAP 1.5 [message #992379]

Hi

we wanted to migrate a RAP 1.4 application and planned to go to RAP 1.5.

But we did not manage to register the FAVICON resource in the configuration application.

So we tried with RAP 2.0 M3 and managed to register the ICON with the code shown below.

But how to we do that with RAP 1.5?
Particularly, i do not know how to create the IRESOURCE that must be passed to application.addResource().

Thanks
Andrej

public class KabeMainConfiguration implements ApplicationConfiguration {
private INIFileHandler iniFileHandler = new INIFileHandler(RAPConstants.rapIniFileName); // INI-Filehandler-Object

@Override
public void configure( Application application ) {
try
{
String favIcon = "file://localhost"+iniFileHandler.getEntry("imagePath") + "favIcon.ico";
Map<String, String> properties = new HashMap<String, String>();
properties.put(WebClient.PAGE_TITLE, "Produktecenter");
properties.put( WebClient.FAVICON, favIcon);
ResourceLoader rl = createResourceLoader(favIcon);
application.addResource(favIcon, rl);
application.addEntryPoint("/kabe", KabeMain.class, properties);
} catch (Exception ex)
{
System.out.println(ex.getMessage());
}
}

private ResourceLoader createResourceLoader(final String resourceName)
{
return new ResourceLoader()
{
@Override
public InputStream getResourceAsStream(String resourceName) throws IOException{
URL url = new URL(resourceName);
return (InputStream) url.getContent();
}
};
}

}

You shouldn't use a file:// URL, because a client browser won't find the
image in its local filesystem. It should be an http URL to the favicon
that the browser can access. Instead of the entire URL, you can also use
a relative or absolute path.

You can find an example in the 1.5 branch of the examples demo [1].

HTH, Ralf
