As far as I understand, an URL consists of the folowing fields:

• Protocol (http, https, ftp, etc.)
• User name
• User Password
• Host address (an IP address or a DNS FQDN)
• Port (which can be implied)
• Path to a document inside the server documents root
• Set of arguments and values
• Document part (#)

as

protocol://user:password@host:port/path/document?arg1=val1&arg2=val2#part

I need a code to get value (or null/empty value if not set) of any of these fields from any given URL string. Am I to implement this myself or there is already a code for this so I don't need to invent a wheel?

I am particularly interested in Scala or Java code. C#, PHP, Python or Perl code can also be开发者_如何学编程 useful.

The URL class gives you everything you need. See http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/net/URL.html

URL url = new URL("protocol://user:password@host:port/path/document?arg1=val1&arg2=val2#part");
url.getProtocol();
url.getUserInfo();
url.getAuthority();
url.getHost();
url.getPort();
url.getPath(); // document part is contained within the path field
url.getQuery();
url.getRef(); // gets #part

Use the java.net.URI class for this. URLs are for real resources and real protocols. URIs are for possibly non-existent protocols and resources.

In Java, just use the URL class. It provides methods such as getProtocol, getHost, etc. to obtain the different parts of the URL.
