NAME
       URI::URL - Uniform Resource Locators

SYNOPSIS
        $u1 = URI::URL->new($str, $base);
        $u2 = $u1->abs;

DESCRIPTION
       This module is provided for backwards compatibility with modules that
       depend on the interface provided by the "URI::URL" class that used to
       be distributed with the libwww-perl library.

       The following differences exist compared to the "URI" class interface:

       +o  The URI::URL module exports the url() function as an alternate
          constructor interface.

       +o  The constructor takes an optional $base argument.  The "URI::URL"
          class is a subclass of "URI::WithBase".

       +o  The URI::URL->newlocal class method is the same as
          URI::file->newabs.

       +o  URI::URL::strict(1)

       +o  $url->printon method

       +o  $url->crack method

       +o  $url->fullpath: same as ($uri->abspath || "/")

       +o  $url->netloc: same as $uri->authority

       +o  $url->epath, $url->equery: same as $uri->path, $uri->query

       +o  $url->path and $url->query pass unescaped strings.

       +o  $url->pathcomponents: same as $uri->pathsegments (if you don't
          consider path segment parameters)

       +o  $url->params and $url->eparams methods

       +o  $url->base method.  See URI::WithBase.

       +o  $url->abs and $url->rel have an optional $base argument.  See
          URI::WithBase.

       +o  $url->frag: same as $uri->fragment

       +o  $url->keywords: same as $uri->querykeywords

       +o  $url->localpath and friends map to $uri->file.

       +o  $url->address and $url->encoded822addr: same as $uri->to for mailto
          URI

       +o  $url->groupart method for news URI

       +o  $url->article: same as $uri->message
