Hi,
 
I didn't find a way to specify the drive in an URI for XT.
 
Where Xalan accepts URI like D:/my-dir/my-file.xml, XT seems to expect an URI like file:/my-dir/my-file.xml.
How can I include the drive to use?
 
In large scale applications where mutable data should be put apart from the code for saving purposes, it's a real problem.
Aren't there any standard URI syntax supporting Windows file system?
 
Thanks by advance,
 
Tangi Vass
