public class URI
extends Object

A class to represent a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). This class is designed to handle the parsing of URIs and provide access to the various components (scheme, host, port, userinfo, path, query string and fragment) that may constitute a URI.

Parsing of a URI specification is done according to the URI syntax described in RFC 2396, and amended by RFC 2732.

Every absolute URI consists of a scheme, followed by a colon (':'), followed by a scheme-specific part. For URIs that follow the "generic URI" syntax, the scheme-specific part begins with two slashes ("//") and may be followed by an authority segment (comprised of user information, host, and port), path segment, query segment and fragment. Note that RFC 2396 no longer specifies the use of the parameters segment and excludes the "user:password" syntax as part of the authority segment. If "user:password" appears in a URI, the entire user/password string is stored as userinfo.

For URIs that do not follow the "generic URI" syntax (e.g. mailto), the entire scheme-specific part is treated as the "path" portion of the URI.

Note that, unlike the java.net.URL class, this class does not provide any built-in network access functionality nor does it provide any scheme-specific functionality (for example, it does not know a default port for a specific scheme). Rather, it only knows the grammar and basic set of operations that can be applied to a URI.

Constructor Detail

URI

public URI()

Construct a new and uninitialized URI.

URI

public URI(URI p_other)

Construct a new URI from another URI. All fields for this URI are set equal to the fields of the URI passed in.

Parameters:

p_other - the URI to copy (cannot be null)

URI

public URI(String p_uriSpec)
    throws URI.MalformedURIException

Construct a new URI from a URI specification string. If the specification follows the "generic URI" syntax, (two slashes following the first colon), the specification will be parsed accordingly - setting the scheme, userinfo, host,port, path, query string and fragment fields as necessary. If the specification does not follow the "generic URI" syntax, the specification is parsed into a scheme and scheme-specific part (stored as the path) only.

Parameters:

p_uriSpec - the URI specification string (cannot be null or empty)

Throws:

URI.MalformedURIException - if p_uriSpec violates any syntax rules

URI

public URI(String p_uriSpec,
           boolean allowNonAbsoluteURI)
    throws URI.MalformedURIException

Construct a new URI from a URI specification string. If the specification follows the "generic URI" syntax, (two slashes following the first colon), the specification will be parsed accordingly - setting the scheme, userinfo, host,port, path, query string and fragment fields as necessary. If the specification does not follow the "generic URI" syntax, the specification is parsed into a scheme and scheme-specific part (stored as the path) only. Construct a relative URI if boolean is assigned to "true" and p_uriSpec is not valid absolute URI, instead of throwing an exception.

Parameters:

p_uriSpec - the URI specification string (cannot be null or empty)

allowNonAbsoluteURI - true to permit non-absolute URIs, false otherwise.

Throws:

URI.MalformedURIException - if p_uriSpec violates any syntax rules

URI

public URI(URI p_base,
           String p_uriSpec)
    throws URI.MalformedURIException

Construct a new URI from a base URI and a URI specification string. The URI specification string may be a relative URI.

Parameters:

p_base - the base URI (cannot be null if p_uriSpec is null or empty)

p_uriSpec - the URI specification string (cannot be null or empty if p_base is null)

Throws:

URI.MalformedURIException - if p_uriSpec violates any syntax rules

URI

public URI(URI p_base,
           String p_uriSpec,
           boolean allowNonAbsoluteURI)
    throws URI.MalformedURIException

Construct a new URI from a base URI and a URI specification string. The URI specification string may be a relative URI. Construct a relative URI if boolean is assigned to "true" and p_uriSpec is not valid absolute URI and p_base is null instead of throwing an exception.

Parameters:

p_base - the base URI (cannot be null if p_uriSpec is null or empty)

p_uriSpec - the URI specification string (cannot be null or empty if p_base is null)

allowNonAbsoluteURI - true to permit non-absolute URIs, false otherwise.

Throws:

URI.MalformedURIException - if p_uriSpec violates any syntax rules

URI

public URI(String p_scheme,
           String p_schemeSpecificPart)
    throws URI.MalformedURIException

Construct a new URI that does not follow the generic URI syntax. Only the scheme and scheme-specific part (stored as the path) are initialized.

Determines if the passed-in Object is equivalent to this URI.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

p_test - the Object to test for equality.

Returns:

the URI string specification

isGenericURI

public boolean isGenericURI()

Get the indicator as to whether this URI uses the "generic URI" syntax.

Returns:

true if this URI uses the "generic URI" syntax, false otherwise

isAbsoluteURI

public boolean isAbsoluteURI()

Returns whether this URI represents an absolute URI.

Returns:

true if this URI represents an absolute URI, false otherwise

isConformantSchemeName

public static boolean isConformantSchemeName(String p_scheme)

Determine whether a scheme conforms to the rules for a scheme name. A scheme is conformant if it starts with an alphanumeric, and contains only alphanumerics, '+','-' and '.'.

Parameters:

p_scheme - the scheme

Returns:

true if the scheme is conformant, false otherwise

isWellFormedAddress

public static boolean isWellFormedAddress(String address)

Determine whether a string is syntactically capable of representing a valid IPv4 address, IPv6 reference or the domain name of a network host. A valid IPv4 address consists of four decimal digit groups separated by a '.'. Each group must consist of one to three digits. See RFC 2732 Section 3, and RFC 2373 Section 2.2, for the definition of IPv6 references. A hostname consists of domain labels (each of which must begin and end with an alphanumeric but may contain '-') separated & by a '.'. See RFC 2396 Section 3.2.2.

Parameters:

address - the address

Returns:

true if the string is a syntactically valid IPv4 address, IPv6 reference or hostname

isWellFormedIPv4Address

public static boolean isWellFormedIPv4Address(String address)

Determines whether a string is an IPv4 address as defined by RFC 2373, and under the further constraint that it must be a 32-bit address. Though not expressed in the grammar, in order to satisfy the 32-bit address constraint, each segment of the address cannot be greater than 255 (8 bits of information).

IPv4address = 1*3DIGIT "." 1*3DIGIT "." 1*3DIGIT "." 1*3DIGIT

Parameters:

address - the address

Returns:

true if the string is a syntactically valid IPv4 address

isWellFormedIPv6Reference

public static boolean isWellFormedIPv6Reference(String address)

Determines whether a string is an IPv6 reference as defined by RFC 2732, where IPv6address is defined in RFC 2373. The IPv6 address is parsed according to Section 2.2 of RFC 2373, with the additional constraint that the address be composed of 128 bits of information.

IPv6reference = "[" IPv6address "]"

Note: The BNF expressed in RFC 2373 Appendix B does not accurately describe section 2.2, and was in fact removed from RFC 3513, the successor of RFC 2373.

Parameters:

address - the address

Returns:

true if the string is a syntactically valid IPv6 reference
