public abstract class URI extends Object
A representation of a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), as specified by RFC 2396, with certain enhancements. A URI instance can be created by specifying values for its components, or by providing a single URI string, which is parsed into its components. Static factory methods whose names begin with "create" are used for both forms of object creation. No public or protected constructors are provided; this class can not be subclassed.

Like String, URI is an immutable class; a URI instance offers several by-value methods that return a new URI object based on its current state. Most useful, a relative URI can be resolved against a base absolute URI -- the latter typically identifies the document in which the former appears. The inverse to this is deresolve, which answers the question, "what relative URI will resolve, against the given base, to this absolute URI?"

In the RFC, much attention is focused on a hierarchical naming system used widely to locate resources via common protocols such as HTTP, FTP, and Gopher, and to identify files on a local file system. Accordingly, most of this class's functionality is for handling such URIs, which can be identified via isHierarchical.

The primary enhancement beyond the RFC description is an optional device component. Instead of treating the device as just another segment in the path, it can be stored as a separate component (almost a sub-authority), with the root below it. For example, resolving /bar against file:///c:/foo would result in file:///c:/bar being returned. Also, you cannot take the parent of a device, so resolving .. against file:///c:/ would not yield file:///, as you might expect. This feature is useful when working with file-scheme URIs, as devices do not typically occur in protocol-based ones. A device-enabled URI is created by parsing a string with createURI; if the first segment of the path ends with the : character, it is stored (including the colon) as the device, instead. Alternately, either the no-path or the absolute-path form of createHierarchicalURI() can be used, in which a non-null device parameter can be specified.

The other enhancement provides support for the almost-hierarchical form used for files within archives, such as the JAR scheme, defined for the Java Platform in the documentation for JarURLConnection. By default, this support is enabled for absolute URIs with scheme equal to "jar", "zip", or "archive" (ignoring case), and is implemented by a hierarchical URI, whose authority includes the entire URI of the archive, up to and including the ! character. The URI of the archive must have no fragment. The whole archive URI must have no device and an absolute path. Special handling is supported for creating, validating, getting the path from, and displaying archive URIs. In all other operations, including resolving and deresolving, they are handled like any ordinary URI. The schemes that identify archive URIs can be changed from their default by setting the org.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI.archiveSchemes system property. Multiple schemes should be space separated, and the test of whether a URI's scheme matches is always case-insensitive.

This implementation does not impose all of the restrictions on character validity that are specified in the RFC. Static methods whose names begin with "valid" are used to test whether a given string is valid value for the various URI components. Presently, these tests place no restrictions beyond what would have been required in order for createURI to have parsed them correctly from a single URI string. If necessary in the future, these tests may be made more strict, to better conform to the RFC.

Another group of static methods, whose names begin with "encode", use percent escaping to encode any characters that are not permitted in the various URI components. Another static method is provided to decode encoded strings. An escaped character is represented as a percent symbol (%), followed by two hex digits that specify the character code. These encoding methods are more strict than the validation methods described above. They ensure validity according to the RFC, with one exception: non-ASCII characters.

The RFC allows only characters that can be mapped to 7-bit US-ASCII representations. Non-ASCII, single-byte characters can be used only via percent escaping, as described above. This implementation uses Java's Unicode char and String representations, and makes no attempt to encode characters 0xA0 and above. Characters in the range 0x80-0x9F are still escaped. In this respect, EMF's notion of a URI is actually more like an IRI (Internationalized Resource Identifier), for which an RFC is now in <href="http://www.w3.org/International/iri-edit/draft-duerst-iri-09.txt">draft form.

Finally, note the difference between a null parameter to the static factory methods and an empty string. The former signifies the absence of a given URI component, while the latter simply makes the component blank. This can have a significant effect when resolving. For example, consider the following two URIs: /bar (with no authority) and ///bar (with a blank authority). Imagine resolving them against a base with an authority, such as http://www.eclipse.org/. The former case will yield http://www.eclipse.org/bar, as the base authority will be preserved. In the latter case, the empty authority will override the base authority, resulting in http:///bar!

      public static URI createGenericURI(String scheme, String opaquePart, String fragment)
      Static factory method for a generic, non-hierarchical URI. There is no concept of a relative non-hierarchical URI; such an object cannot be created.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if scheme is null, if scheme is an archive URI scheme, or if scheme, opaquePart, or fragment is not valid according to validScheme, validOpaquePart, or validFragment, respectively.

    • createHierarchicalURI

      public static URI createHierarchicalURI(String scheme, String authority, String device, String query, String fragment)
      Static factory method for a hierarchical URI with no path. The URI will be relative if scheme is non-null, and absolute otherwise. An absolute URI with no path requires a non-null authority and/or device.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if scheme is non-null while authority and device are null, if scheme is an archive URI scheme, or if scheme, authority, device, query, or fragment is not valid according to validSheme, validAuthority, validDevice, validQuery, or validFragment, respectively.

    • createHierarchicalURI

      public static URI createHierarchicalURI(String scheme, String authority, String device, String[] segments, String query, String fragment)
      Static factory method for a hierarchical URI with absolute path. The URI will be relative if scheme is non-null, and absolute otherwise.
      Parameters:
      segments - an array of non-null strings, each representing one segment of the path. As an absolute path, it is automatically preceded by a / separator. If desired, a trailing separator should be represented by an empty-string segment as the last element of the array.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if scheme is an archive URI scheme and device is non-null, or if scheme, authority, device, segments, query, or fragment is not valid according to validScheme, validAuthority or validArchiveAuthority, validDevice, validSegments, validQuery, or validFragment, as appropriate.

    • createHierarchicalURI

      public static URI createHierarchicalURI(String[] segments, String query, String fragment)
      Static factory method for a relative hierarchical URI with relative path.
      Parameters:
      segments - an array of non-null strings, each representing one segment of the path. A trailing separator is represented by an empty-string segment at the end of the array.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if segments, query, or fragment is not valid according to validSegments, validQuery, or validFragment, respectively.

    • createURI

      public static URI createURI(String uri)
      Static factory method based on parsing a URI string, with explicit device support and handling for archive URIs enabled. The specified string is parsed as described in RFC 2396, and an appropriate URI is created and returned. Note that validity testing is not as strict as in the RFC; essentially, only separator characters are considered. This method also does not perform encoding of invalid characters, so it should only be used when the URI string is known to have already been encoded, so as to avoid double encoding.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if any component parsed from uri is not valid according to validScheme, validOpaquePart, validAuthority, validArchiveAuthority, validDevice, validSegments, validQuery, or validFragment, as appropriate.

    • createURI

      public static URI createURI(String uri, boolean ignoreEscaped)
      Static factory method that encodes and parses the given URI string. Appropriate encoding is performed for each component of the URI. If more than one # is in the string, the last one is assumed to be the fragment's separator, and any others are encoded. This method is the simplest way to safely parse an arbitrary URI string.
      Parameters:
      ignoreEscaped - true to leave % characters unescaped if they already begin a valid three-character escape sequence; false to encode all % characters. This capability is provided to allow partially encoded URIs to be "fixed", while avoiding adding double encoding; however, it is usual just to specify false to perform ordinary encoding.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if any component parsed from uri is not valid according to validScheme, validOpaquePart, validAuthority, validArchiveAuthority, validDevice, validSegments, validQuery, or validFragment, as appropriate.

    • createURI

      public static URI createURI(String uri, boolean ignoreEscaped, int fragmentLocationStyle)
      Static factory method that encodes and parses the given URI string. Appropriate encoding is performed for each component of the URI. Control is provided over which, if any, # should be taken as the fragment separator and which should be encoded. This method is the preferred way to safely parse an arbitrary URI string that is known to contain # characters in the fragment or to have no fragment at all.
      Parameters:
      ignoreEscaped - true to leave % characters unescaped if they already begin a valid three-character escape sequence; false to encode all % characters. This capability is provided to allow partially encoded URIs to be "fixed", while avoiding adding double encoding; however, it is usual just to specify false to perform ordinary encoding.
      fragmentLocationStyle - one of FRAGMENT_NONE, FRAGMENT_FIRST_SEPARATOR, or FRAGMENT_LAST_SEPARATOR, indicating which, if any, of the # characters should be considered the fragment separator. Any others will be encoded.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if any component parsed from uri is not valid according to validScheme, validOpaquePart, validAuthority, validArchiveAuthority, validDevice, validSegments, validQuery, or validFragment, as appropriate.

    • createDeviceURI

      @Deprecated public static URI createDeviceURI(String uri)
      Deprecated.
      Use createURI, which now has explicit device support enabled. The two methods now operate identically.
      Static factory method based on parsing a URI string, with explicit device support enabled. Note that validity testing is not a strict as in the RFC; essentially, only separator characters are considered. So, for example, non-Latin alphabet characters appearing in the scheme would not be considered an error.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if any component parsed from uri is not valid according to validScheme, validOpaquePart, validAuthority, validArchiveAuthority, validDevice, validSegments, validQuery, or validFragment, as appropriate.

    • createURIWithCache

      @Deprecated public static URI createURIWithCache(String uri)
      Deprecated.
      Please use createURI instead.
      This method was included in the public API by mistake.

    • createFileURI

      public static URI createFileURI(String pathName)
      Static factory method based on parsing a File path string. The pathname may be either absolute or relative. A relative path should be avoided and can be converted to an absolute path using new File(pathname).getAbsolutePath().
      • An absolute path is converted into an appropriate form starting with "file:" scheme, followed by a /, if pathname doesn't start with a platform-specific separator, followed by the pathname modified to use / as the separator and modified to encode the segments.
      • A relative path is converted into an appropriate form simply by modifying the pathname to use / as the separator and modifying the segments to encode them.

      The encoding step escapes all spaces, # characters, and other characters disallowed in URIs, as well as ?, which would delimit a path from a query. Decoding is automatically performed by toFileString, and can be applied to the values returned by other accessors via the static decode method.

      Callers are generally recommended to call this method using URI.createFileURI(new File(pathname).getAbsolutePath()) for the following reasons:

      • On Windows, a relative path with a specified device, e.g., C:myfile.txt</code>, cannot be expressed as a valid file URI.
      • On Windows, C:/myfile.text is an absolute path, but on a Unix-style file system, it is a relative path.
      • On Windows, /myfile.text is a relative path, but on a Unix-style file system, it is an absolute path.

      Furthermore, any application that uses a relative URI to locate some associated resource will generally map the relative URI to an absolute URI in some manner, likely depending on the system's state, e.g., the current user directory that can change over time, exactly as is the case for new File(path).getAbsolutePath(). Not only that, when an accessed resource itself contains URIs, the general XML interpretation of any such contained relative URI is to resolve it to an absolute URI based on the absolute URI of the containing resource; that resolution isn't possible (well-defined) unless the base URI of the resource is an absolute URI.

      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if pathName specifies a device and a relative path, or if any component of the path is not valid according to validAuthority, validDevice, or validSegments, validQuery, or validFragment.

    • createPlatformResourceURI

      @Deprecated public static URI createPlatformResourceURI(String pathName)
      Deprecated.
      Use createPlatformResourceURI(String, boolean) instead.
      Static factory method based on parsing a workspace-relative path string.

      The pathName must be of the form: 

         /project-name/path

      Platform-specific path separators will be converted to slashes. If not included, the leading path separator will be added. The result will be of this form, which is parsed using createURI: 

         platform:/resource/project-name/path

      This scheme supports relocatable projects in Eclipse and in stand-alone EMF.

      Path encoding is performed only if the org.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI.encodePlatformResourceURIs system property is set to "true". Decoding can be performed with the static decode method.

      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if any component parsed from the path is not valid according to validDevice, validSegments, validQuery, or validFragment.
      See Also:

    • createPlatformResourceURI

      Static factory method based on parsing a workspace-relative path string, with an option to encode the created URI.

      The pathName must be of the form: 

         /project-name/path

      Platform-specific path separators will be converted to slashes. If not included, the leading path separator will be added. The result will be of this form, which is parsed using createURI: 

         platform:/resource/project-name/path

      This scheme supports relocatable projects in Eclipse and in stand-alone EMF.

      Depending on the encode argument, the path may be automatically encoded to escape all spaces, # characters, and other characters disallowed in URIs, as well as ?, which would delimit a path from a query. Decoding can be performed with the static decode method. It is strongly recommended to specify true to enable encoding, unless the path string has already been encoded.

      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if any component parsed from the path is not valid according to validDevice, validSegments, validQuery, or validFragment.

    • resolve

      public URI resolve(URI base)
      Resolves this URI reference against a base absolute hierarchical URI, returning the resulting absolute URI. If already absolute, the URI itself is returned. URI resolution is described in detail in section 5.2 of RFC 2396, "Resolving Relative References to Absolute Form."

      During resolution, empty segments, self references ("."), and parent references ("..") are interpreted, so that they can be removed from the path. Step 6(g) gives a choice of how to handle the case where parent references point to a path above the root: the offending segments can be preserved or discarded. This method preserves them. To have them discarded, please use the two-parameter form of resolve.

      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if base is non-hierarchical or is relative.

    • resolve

      public URI resolve(URI base, boolean preserveRootParents)
      Resolves this URI reference against a base absolute hierarchical URI, returning the resulting absolute URI. If already absolute, the URI itself is returned. URI resolution is described in detail in section 5.2 of RFC 2396, "Resolving Relative References to Absolute Form."

      During resolution, empty segments, self references ("."), and parent references ("..") are interpreted, so that they can be removed from the path. Step 6(g) gives a choice of how to handle the case where parent references point to a path above the root: the offending segments can be preserved or discarded. This method can do either.

      Parameters:
      preserveRootParents - true if segments referring to the parent of the root path are to be preserved; false if they are to be discarded.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if base is non-hierarchical or is relative.

    • deresolve

      public URI deresolve(URI base)
      Finds the shortest relative or, if necessary, the absolute URI that, when resolved against the given base absolute hierarchical URI using resolve, will yield this absolute URI. If base is non-hierarchical or is relative, or this is non-hierarchical or is relative, this will be returned.

    • deresolve

      public URI deresolve(URI base, boolean preserveRootParents, boolean anyRelPath, boolean shorterRelPath)
      Finds an absolute URI that, when resolved against the given base absolute hierarchical URI using resolve, will yield this absolute URI. If base is non-hierarchical or is relative, or this is non-hierarchical or is relative, this will be returned.
      Parameters:
      preserveRootParents - the boolean argument to resolve(URI, boolean) for which the returned URI should resolve to this URI.
      anyRelPath - if true, the returned URI's path (if any) will be relative, if possible. If false, the form of the result's path will depend upon the next parameter.
      shorterRelPath - if anyRelPath is false and this parameter is true, the returned URI's path (if any) will be relative, if one can be found that is no longer (by number of segments) than the absolute path. If both anyRelPath and this parameter are false, it will be absolute.

    • toFileString

      public String toFileString()
      If this URI may refer directly to a locally accessible file, as determined by isFile, decodes and formats the URI as a pathname to that file; returns null otherwise.

      If there is no authority, the format of this string is: 

         device/pathSegment1/pathSegment2...

      If there is an authority, it is: 

         //authority/device/pathSegment1/pathSegment2...

      However, the character used as a separator is system-dependent and obtained from File.separatorChar.

    • toPlatformString

      public String toPlatformString(boolean decode)

    • appendSegment

      public URI appendSegment(String segment)
      Returns the URI formed by appending the specified segment on to the end of the path of this URI, if hierarchical; this URI unchanged, otherwise. If this URI has an authority and/or device, but no path, the segment becomes the first under the root in an absolute path.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if segment is not a valid segment according to validSegment(java.lang.String).

    • appendSegments

      public URI appendSegments(String[] segments)
      Returns the URI formed by appending the specified segments on to the end of the path of this URI, if hierarchical; this URI unchanged, otherwise. If this URI has an authority and/or device, but no path, the segments are made to form an absolute path.
      Parameters:
      segments - an array of non-null strings, each representing one segment of the path. If desired, a trailing separator should be represented by an empty-string segment as the last element of the array.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if segments is not a valid segment array according to validSegments(java.lang.String[]).

    • trimSegments

      public URI trimSegments(int i)
      Returns the URI formed by trimming the specified number of segments (including empty segments, such as one representing a trailing separator) from the end of the path of this URI, if hierarchical; otherwise, this URI is returned unchanged.

      Note that if all segments are trimmed from an absolute path, the root absolute path remains.

      Parameters:
      i - the number of segments to be trimmed in the returned URI. If less than 1, this URI is returned unchanged; if equal to or greater than the number of segments in this URI's path, all segments are trimmed.

    • hasTrailingPathSeparator

      public boolean hasTrailingPathSeparator()
      Returns true if this is a hierarchical URI that has a path that ends with a trailing separator; false otherwise.

      A trailing separator is represented as an empty segment as the last segment in the path; note that this definition does not include the lone separator in the root absolute path.

    • fileExtension

      public String fileExtension()
      If this is a hierarchical URI whose path includes a file extension, that file extension is returned; null otherwise. We define a file extension as any string following the last period (".") in the final path segment. If there is no path, the path ends in a trailing separator, or the final segment contains no period, then we consider there to be no file extension. If the final segment ends in a period, then the file extension is an empty string.

    • appendFileExtension

      public URI appendFileExtension(String fileExtension)
      Returns the URI formed by appending a period (".") followed by the specified file extension to the last path segment of this URI, if it is hierarchical with a non-empty path ending in a non-empty segment; otherwise, this URI is returned unchanged.

      The extension is appended regardless of whether the segment already contains an extension.

      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if fileExtension is not a valid segment (portion) according to validSegment(java.lang.String).

    • trimFileExtension

      public URI trimFileExtension()
      If this URI has a non-null fileExtension, returns the URI formed by removing it; this URI unchanged, otherwise.

    • isPrefix

      public boolean isPrefix()
      Returns true if this is a hierarchical URI that ends in a slash; that is, it has a trailing path separator or is the root absolute path, and has no query and no fragment; false is returned otherwise.

    • replacePrefix

      public URI replacePrefix(URI oldPrefix, URI newPrefix)
      If this is a hierarchical URI reference and oldPrefix is a prefix of it, this returns the URI formed by replacing it by newPrefix; null otherwise.

      In order to be a prefix, the oldPrefix's isPrefix must return true, and it must match this URI's scheme, authority, and device. Also, the paths must match, up to prefix's end.

      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if either oldPrefix or newPrefix is not a prefix URI according to isPrefix().
