public class Handler

extends URLStreamHandler

Handler for the pseudo URL protocol tx. This URLStreamHandler wraps other URLStream so that the context can be buffered and potentially transformed. For example, the URL "tx:file:/etc/passwd" will wrap the URL "file:/etc/passwd" and the contents loaded into a byte array. The current thread and it's parents will then be inspected looking for a loader that implements the Transformer interface, which if found is used to transform the bytes of the content before streaming them as the content of the URL.
