	URL (const string& url) Constructs this object
	URL (const string& protocol, const string& host, int port, const string& file) Constructs this object
	~URL () Destructor
const string&	getProtocol () const Returns a string containing the protocol of this url object
const string&	getHost () const Returns a string containing the host of this url object
int	getPort () const Returns an integer containing the port of this url object
const string&	getFile () const Returns a string containing the file name of the information to be retrieved from this url
string	toString () const Returns the string representation of this url
URLConnection	getURLConnection () const Returns a URLConnection object associated with the URL
	operator void* () const
bool	operator== (const URL& url) const
string	paramString () const Returns a string representation for URL, which is used debugging purposes
	URLConnection (URLConnectionImpl* impl = NULL) Constructs this object
	~URLConnection () Decrements the ref_cnt and when the count reaches 0 destroys the implementation and this object

Public Methods

ref_ptr & operator=(const ref_ptr& rhs)

T* operator->() const

T* get() const

URL()

Constructs a null URL. Uses the defaults for a null URL:" noprot", "nohost", port=-1,"/nofile" and NullURLHandler.

URL(const string& url)

Constructs this object. Uses the URLHandlerFactory to create a URLHandler for the specified protocol. The default URLHandler for files is FileURLHandlerImpl, for http is HttpURLHandlerImpl and for ldap is LDAPURLHandlerImpl.

Throws:

MalformedURLException if url cannot be parsed.

Parameters:

url - string containing the url.

URL(const string& protocol, const string& host, int port, const string& file)

Constructs this object.

Parameters:

protocol - any one of these protocols - http, file or ldap
host - connect to this host
port - the port to connect to the host for sending requests
file - the information to be retrieved from the url

~URL()

Destructor

const string& getProtocol() const

Returns a string containing the protocol of this url object

Returns:

protocol component of this url

const string& getHost() const

Returns a string containing the host of this url object

Returns:

host component of this url

int getPort() const

Returns an integer containing the port of this url object

Returns:

port component of this url

const string& getFile() const

Returns a string containing the file name of the information to be retrieved from this url.

Returns:

file component of this url

string toString() const

Returns the string representation of this url. See the class description for the possible formats of URLs.

Throws:

URLConnection getURLConnection() const

Returns a URLConnection object associated with the URL. URLConnection objects provide the methods to open and close connections to the URL and read and write data through the connection.

Returns:

a URLConnection object for this URL.

operator void*() const

bool operator==(const URL& url) const

string paramString() const

Returns a string representation for URL, which is used debugging purposes.

Returns:

debugging info

URLConnection(URLConnectionImpl* impl = NULL)

Constructs this object

Parameters:

impl - the URLConnectionImpl object

~URLConnection()

Decrements the ref_cnt and when the count reaches 0 destroys the implementation and this object
