Detailed Description

comp Base class for SBML resolvers.

This class of objects is defined by libSBML only and has no direct equivalent in terms of SBML components. It is a class used in the implementation of extra functionality provided by libSBML.

The SBMLResolver class is the base class for the various SBML resolvers: facilities that take a unique identifier as input and return the document associated with that identifier. In SBML, resolvers come into play with the SBML Level 3 Hierarchical Model Composition package; this package includes features that allow a model to be composed from pieces that are external to a given SBML document, which implies the need to be able to identify and locate those external pieces. The SBMLResolver class and its subclasses provide facilities for software applications to be able to do these tasks.

LibSBML provides a number of built-in resolvers, and applications can create their own by subclassing SBMLResolver and following the examples of the existing resolvers. The following are the built-in resolvers in libSBML 5.18.0:

• SBMLFileResolver

More resolvers may be provided by libSBML in the future. Application authors may also write their own. An example of how to create an HTTP resolver is included with the libSBML distribution in the file SBMLHttpResolverExample.cpp.

Resolves the document for the given URI.

Parameters

uri	the URI to the target document.
baseUri	base URI, in case the URI is a relative one.
