All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable
```
public class Url
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable
```
Represents the URL to an external resource or internal resource/component.
A url could be:
- full - consists of an optional protocol/scheme, a host name, an optional port, optional segments and and optional query parameters.
- non-full:
  - absolute - a url relative to the host name. Such url may escape from the application by using different context path and/or different filter path. For example: /foo/bar
  - relative - a url relative to the current base url. The base url is the url of the currently rendered page. For example: foo/bar, ../foo/bar
Example URLs:
- http://hostname:1234/foo/bar?a=b#baz - protocol: http, host: hostname, port: 1234, segments: ["foo","bar"], fragment: baz
- http://hostname:1234/foo/bar?a=b - protocol: http, host: hostname, port: 1234, segments: ["foo","bar"]
- //hostname:1234/foo/bar?a=b - protocol: null, host: hostname, port: 1234, segments: ["foo","bar"]
- foo/bar/baz?a=1&b=5 - segments: ["foo","bar","baz"], query parameters: ["a"="1", "b"="5"]
- foo/bar//baz?=4&6 - segments: ["foo", "bar", "", "baz"], query parameters: [""="4", "6"=""]
- /foo/bar/ - segments: ["", "foo", "bar", ""]
- foo/bar// - segments: ["foo", "bar", "", ""]
- ?a=b - segments: [ ], query parameters: ["a"="b"]
The Url class takes care of encoding and decoding of the segments and parameters.

  - resolveRelative
```
public void resolveRelative(Url relative)
```
    Makes this url the result of resolving the relative url against this url.
    Segments will be properly resolved, handling any .. references, while the query parameters will be completely replaced with relative's query parameters.
    
    For example:
    wicket/page/render?foo=bar
    resolved with
    ../component/render?a=b
    will become
    wicket/component/render?a=b
    Parameters:
    
    relative - relative url
  - getProtocol
```
public java.lang.String getProtocol()
```
    Gets the protocol of this url (http/https/etc)
    
    Returns:
    
    protocol or null if none has been set

    Parameters:
    
    contextRelative -
  - isContextRelative
```
public boolean isContextRelative()
```
    Tests if the URL is relative to the application context. If so, it holds all the information an absolute URL would have, minus the context and filter mapping segments
    
    Returns:
    
    contextRelative
  - getPort
```
public java.lang.Integer getPort()
```
    Gets the port of this url
    
    Returns:

    Parameters:
    
    port -
  - getHost
```
public java.lang.String getHost()

    Sets the host name of this url
    
    Parameters:
    
    host -
  - getPath

    return path for current url in given encoding
    
    Parameters:
    
    charset - character set for encoding
    
    Returns:
    
    path string
  - getPath
```
public java.lang.String getPath()
```
    return path for current url in original encoding
    
    Returns:
    
    path string
  - getQueryString
```
public java.lang.String getQueryString(java.nio.charset.Charset charset)
```
    return query string part of url in given encoding
    
    Parameters:
    
    charset - character set for encoding
    
    Returns:
    
    query string (null if empty)
    
    Since:
    
    Wicket 7 the return value does not contain any "?" and could be null
  - getQueryString
```
public java.lang.String getQueryString()
```
    return query string part of url in original encoding
    
    Returns:
    
    query string (null if empty)
    
    Since:
    
    Wicket 7 the return value does not contain any "?" and could be null
  - canonical
```
public Url canonical()
```
    Try to reduce url by eliminating '..' and '.' from the path where appropriate (this is somehow similar to File.getCanonicalPath()). Either by different / unexpected browser behavior or by malicious attacks it can happen that these kind of redundant urls are processed by wicket. These urls can cause some trouble when mapping the request.
    example: the url
    /example/..;jsessionid=234792?0
    will not get normalized by the browser due to the ';jsessionid' string that gets appended by the servlet container. After wicket strips the jsessionid part the resulting internal url will be
    /example/..
    instead of
    /
    
    This code correlates to WICKET-4303
    Returns:
    
    canonical url
