NAME
URI::URL - Uniform Resource Locators
SYNOPSIS
$u1 = URI::URL->new($str, $base); $u2 = $u1->abs;
DESCRIPTION
This module is provided for backwards compatibility with modules that
depend on the interface provided by the "URI::URL" class that used to
be distributed with the libwww-perl library.
The following differences exist compared to the "URI" class interface:
- o The URI::URL module exports the url() function as an alternate
- constructor interface.
- o The constructor takes an optional $base argument. The "URI::URL"
- class is a subclass of "URI::WithBase".
- o The URI::URL->newlocal class method is the same as
- URI::file->new_abs.
- o URI::URL::strict(1)
- o $url->print_on method
- o $url->crack method
- o $url->full_path: same as ($uri->abs_path || "/")
- o $url->netloc: same as $uri->authority
- o $url->epath, $url->equery: same as $uri->path, $uri->query
- o $url->path and $url->query pass unescaped strings.
- o $url->path_components: same as $uri->path_segments (if you don't
- consider path segment parameters)
- o $url->params and $url->eparams methods
- o $url->base method. See URI::WithBase.
- o $url->abs and $url->rel have an optional $base argument. See
- URI::WithBase.
- o $url->frag: same as $uri->fragment
- o $url->keywords: same as $uri->query_keywords
- o $url->localpath and friends map to $uri->file.
- o $url->address and $url->encoded822addr: same as $uri->to for mailto
- URI
- o $url->groupart method for news URI
- o $url->article: same as $uri->message
