public class Handler
extends URLStreamHandler

URLStreamHandler for reference protocol. A reference URL is used to hold a reference to a local file URL. A reference URL allows bundles to be installed by reference. This means the content of the bundle will not be copied. Instead the content of the bundle will be loaded from the reference location specified by the reference URL. The Framework only supports reference URLs that refer to a local file URL. For example:

     reference:file:/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.myplugin_1.0.0/
     reference:file:/eclispe/plugins/org.eclipse.mybundle_1.0.0.jar
