Using URI utilities

UriUtils class provides additional utilities for CUri8 and CAuthority8 classes.

You can create URI (CUri8 object) from a Unicode descriptor using UriUtils::CreateUriL(). Refer to How to create a URI for details.

Validating a URI

Validating for invalid data:

HasInvalidChars() checks for any excluded (also called invalid) characters in the URI. The set of invalid characters are given in the table below:

Category Character set Control characters Values 0x00 to 0x1F and greater than 0x7F Space 0x20 Delimiters '<', '>', '#', '%', '"' Unwise characters ' {', '}', '|', '\', '^', '[', ']', '`'

Validating valid host:

HostType() validates the URI for the following valid host types as defined in TUriHostType:

• IPv6, for example, 1080:0:0:0:8:800:200C:417A

• IPv4, for example, 192.168.202.18

• text form, for example, www.mywebpage.com
