The URI Resolver is an HTTP URI resolver implemented as an HTTP servlet which gives access trough HTTP to different protocols URIs.

SMP Resolver

The first version of the component is able to give HTTP resolution to SM protocol URIs [1].

Once deployed in a servlet container as Tomcat, the servlet can be used to resolve SMP URI as follows:

URL url = new URL("http://<hostname>:<port>/uri-resolver/smp?smp-uri=smp://Wikipedia_logo_silver.png?5ezvFfBOLqaqBlwCEtAvz4ch5B/td9QSDXSZj5VSl9kdN9SN0/LRYaWUZuP4Q1J7");

The http URI can be also use to retrieve files using wget or trough a Web Browser.. just clicking the link :

Runtime Resource

The address and the configuration information of the servlet are registered on the gCube Information System as Runtime Resource. This in an example of the Runtime Resource to configure:
