protected void parseURL( URL u,
String spec,
int start,
int limit )
Parameters
- u
- the URL to receive the result of parsing
the spec.
- spec
- the String representing the URL that
must be parsed.
- start
- the character index at which to begin parsing. This is
just past the ':' (if there is one) that
specifies the determination of the protocol name.
- limit
- the character position to stop parsing at. This is the
end of the string or the position of the
"#" character, if present. All information
after the sharp sign indicates an anchor.
Description
Parses the string representation of a URL into a
URL object.
If there is any inherited context, then it has already been
copied into the URL argument.
The parseURL method of URLStreamHandler
parses the string representation as if it were an
http specification. Most URL protocol families have a
similar parsing. A stream protocol handler for a protocol that has
a different syntax must override this routine.
