Re: [jetty-discuss] HttpURI set methods not existent

[Greg W. <gr...@we...>]

Hey Matthew,

yes HttpURI is immutable on purpose.  It's role is to
efficiently break up a URI into it's component pieces from
a string or byte array.

It does not have setters and it would be moderately complicated to
add them.

Perhaps the functionality can be added by supporting a resolve
relative method - which would generate a new URI by adding a
URI to a base URI.

Something like:

   HttpURI  base = new HttpURI("http://host:8888/path/info");
   HttpURI resolved = base.resolve(new HttpURI("https:#target"));

and resolved.toString() would be "https://host:8888/path/info#target"

or we could look at adding some other class to do the assembly....
open to suggestions for the API.

we will need this for the proxy etc.

cheers
