android get URL path

Question

I've got a string:

public://imageifarm/3600.jpg

How can I extract the

imageifarm/3600.jpg

Part out using android?

What I've tried so far:

URL drupalQuestionNodeImageURI = new URL("public://imageifarm/3600.jpg");
Log.d("TAG", drupalQuestionNodeImageURI.getPath());

but it throws this exception:

09-16 17:24:39.992: W/System.err(3763): java.net.MalformedURLException: Unknown protocol: public

How can I solve this?

I know I can use regular expressions but that seems to defeat the purpose of URL(URI) in this case.

Answer 1

You should use android.net.Uri

Uri mUri = Uri.parse(public://imageifarm/3600.jpg);    
String extract = mUri.getEncodedSchemeSpecificPart();

Answer 2

使用java.net.URI，而不是java.net.URL。

Answer 3

If you want have to use URL class (when you image sits on Internet) you have to provide valid URL (that begins from valid URL prefix, like http://, https:// etc). In you case you should use Uri class. Uri object can point on files in your local file system. For example:

Uri.fromFile(new File("public://imageifarm/3600.jpg"));
