URI::URL - Uniform Resource Locators

CONTENTS

 $u1 = URI::URL->new($str, $base);
 $u2 = $u1->abs;

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
