hexTable

public static final char[] hexTable

hextable used for escape(String, char, boolean)

Method Detail

escape

public static String escape(String string)

Does a URL encoding of the string. The characters that don't need encoding are those defined 'unreserved' in section 2.3 of the 'URI generic syntax' RFC 2396.

Parameters:

string - the string to encode

Returns:

the escaped string

Throws:

NullPointerException - if string is null.

escapePath

public static String escapePath(String path)

Does a URL encoding of the path. The characters that don't need encoding are those defined 'unreserved' in section 2.3 of the 'URI generic syntax' RFC 2396. In contrast to the escape(String) method, not the entire path string is escaped, but every individual part (i.e. the slashes are not escaped).

Parameters:

path - the path to encode

Returns:

the escaped path

Throws:

NullPointerException - if path is null.

unescape

public static String unescape(String string)

Does a URL decoding of the string. Please note that in opposite to the URLDecoder it does not transform the + into spaces.

Parameters:

string - the string to decode

Returns:

the decoded string

Throws:

NullPointerException - if string is null.

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - if not enough character follow an escape character

IllegalArgumentException - if the 2 characters following the escape character do not represent a hex-number.
