Class URIUtils

java.lang.Object

org.apache.commons.vfs2.util.URIUtils

public class URIUtils
extends Object

The URI escape and character encoding and decoding utility.

This was forked from some needed methods such as #encodePath(...) in org.apache.commons.httpclient.util.URIUtil, in order to not be dependent on HttpClient v3 API, when generating and handling GenericURLFileNames, but it should work with any different HTTP backend provider implementations.
