/**

 * Class <code>URL</code> represents a Uniform Resource

 * Locator, a pointer to a "resource" on the World

 * Wide Web. A resource can be something as simple as a file or a

 * directory, or it can be a reference to a more complicated object,

 * such as a query to a database or to a search engine. More

 * information on the types of URLs and their formats can be found at:

 * <blockquote>

 *     <a href="http://www.socs.uts.edu.au/MosaicDocs-old/url-primer.html">

 *    <i>http://www.socs.uts.edu.au/MosaicDocs-old/url-primer.html</i></a>

 * </blockquote>

 * <p>

 * In general, a URL can be broken into several parts. The previous

 * example of a URL indicates that the protocol to use is

 * <code>http</code> (HyperText Transfer Protocol) and that the

 * information resides on a host machine named

 * <code>www.socs.uts.edu.au</code>. The information on that host

 * machine is named <code>/MosaicDocs-old/url-primer.html</code>. The exact

 * meaning of this name on the host machine is both protocol

 * dependent and host dependent. The information normally resides in

 * a file, but it could be generated on the fly. This component of

 * the URL is called the <i>path</i> component.

 * <p>

 * A URL can optionally specify a "port", which is the

 * port number to which the TCP connection is made on the remote host

 * machine. If the port is not specified, the default port for

 * the protocol is used instead. For example, the default port for

 * <code>http</code> is <code>80</code>. An alternative port could be

 * specified as:

 * <blockquote><pre>

 *     http://www.socs.uts.edu.au:80/MosaicDocs-old/url-primer.html

 * </pre></blockquote>

 * <p>

 * The syntax of <code>URL</code> is defined by  <a

 * href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt"><i>RFC&nbsp;2396: Uniform

 * Resource Identifiers (URI): Generic Syntax</i></a>, amended by <a

 * href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2732.txt"><i>RFC&nbsp;2732: Format for

 * Literal IPv6 Addresses in URLs</i></a>. The Literal IPv6 address format

 * also supports scope_ids. The syntax and usage of scope_ids is described

 * <a href="Inet6Address.html#scoped">here</a>.

 * <p>

 * A URL may have appended to it a "fragment", also known

 * as a "ref" or a "reference". The fragment is indicated by the sharp

 * sign character "#" followed by more characters. For example,

 * <blockquote><pre>

 *     http://java.sun.com/index.html#chapter1

 * </pre></blockquote>

 * <p>

 * This fragment is not technically part of the URL. Rather, it

 * indicates that after the specified resource is retrieved, the

 * application is specifically interested in that part of the

 * document that has the tag <code>chapter1</code> attached to it. The

 * meaning of a tag is resource specific.

 * <p>

 * An application can also specify a "relative URL",

 * which contains only enough information to reach the resource

 * relative to another URL. Relative URLs are frequently used within

 * HTML pages. For example, if the contents of the URL:

 * <blockquote><pre>

 *     http://java.sun.com/index.html

 * </pre></blockquote>

 * contained within it the relative URL:

 * <blockquote><pre>

 *     FAQ.html

 * </pre></blockquote>

 * it would be a shorthand for:

 * <blockquote><pre>

 *     http://java.sun.com/FAQ.html

 * </pre></blockquote>

 * <p>

 * The relative URL need not specify all the components of a URL. If

 * the protocol, host name, or port number is missing, the value is

 * inherited from the fully specified URL. The file component must be

 * specified. The optional fragment is not inherited.

 * <p>

 * The URL class does not itself encode or decode any URL components

 * according to the escaping mechanism defined in RFC2396. It is the

 * responsibility of the caller to encode any fields, which need to be

 * escaped prior to calling URL, and also to decode any escaped fields,

 * that are returned from URL. Furthermore, because URL has no knowledge

 * of URL escaping, it does not recognise equivalence between the encoded

 * or decoded form of the same URL. For example, the two URLs:<br>

 * <pre>    http://foo.com/hello world/ and http://foo.com/hello%20world</pre>

 * would be considered not equal to each other.

 * <p>

 * Note, the {@link java.net.URI} class does perform escaping of its

 * component fields in certain circumstances. The recommended way

 * to manage the encoding and decoding of URLs is to use {@link java.net.URI},

 * and to convert between these two classes using {@link #toURI()} and

 * {@link URI#toURL()}.

 * <p>

 * The {@link URLEncoder} and {@link URLDecoder} classes can also be

 * used, but only for HTML form encoding, which is not the same

 * as the encoding scheme defined in RFC2396.

     *     a subclass of <code>URLStreamHandler</code>, then the next package

     *     in the list is tried.

     * <li>If the previous step fails to find a protocol handler, then the
