Struct Documentation

struct url : public liberate::cpp::comparison_operators<url>

The URL class provides minimal URL parsing; this is no way specs conforming.

That is, more advanced features of proper URLs are ignored - such as using URL escaping, or quoting, etc. The main goal is to split a URL into:

• scheme

• authority (host)

• path

• query parameters

• fragment

The logic is simple enough that, for example, the first # found is assumed to be the fragment delimiter, etc. It also does not deal with duplicate parameters; the last found always wins.

One thing that it does, however, is lower-case the scheme, all query parameters and their values, and convert all values indicating boolean values to simple “0” and “1” (e.g. “true”, “yes”, etc.).
