Sub Tasks

Description
JNLPClassLoader returns illegal URL values from ClassLoader.findResource()
if the base directory for the cache contains characters illegal in URL's.
For example, on Windows the default deployment.userHome is commonly:
C:/XXX/Application Data/Sun/Java/Deployment
this will result of cached resource being returned as:

jar:file:C:/XXX/Application Data/Sun/Data/Deployment/cache/http/YYY/resource.jar

the space in "Application Data" is not a legal character in a url and should 
be encoded as "%20".  the returned url should be:

jar:file:C:/XXX/Application%20Data/Sun/Data/Deployment/cache/http/YYY/resource.jar

EVALUATION

I think we should fix this in mantis, by encoding and decoding in URLUtil

At this time it has been decided to postpone integrating this fix.

Having tested with thius fir for two weeks now, I think we should fix in mantis for beta freeze.
