.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This module is provided for backwards compatibility with modules that
depend on the interface provided by the \f(CW\*(C`URI::URL\*(C'\fR class that used to
be distributed with the libwww-perl library.
.PP
The following differences exist compared to the \f(CW\*(C`URI\*(C'\fR class interface:
.IP \(bu 3
The URI::URL module exports the \fBurl()\fR function as an alternate
constructor interface.
.IP \(bu 3
The constructor takes an optional \f(CW$base\fR argument.  The \f(CW\*(C`URI::URL\*(C'\fR
class is a subclass of \f(CW\*(C`URI::WithBase\*(C'\fR.
.IP \(bu 3
The URI::URL\->newlocal class method is the same as URI::file\->new_abs.
.IP \(bu 3
\&\fBURI::URL::strict\fR\|(1)
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->print_on method
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->crack method
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->full_path: same as ($uri\->abs_path || "/")
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->netloc: same as \f(CW$uri\fR\->authority
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->epath, \f(CW$url\fR\->equery: same as \f(CW$uri\fR\->path, \f(CW$uri\fR\->query
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->path and \f(CW$url\fR\->query pass unescaped strings.
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->path_components: same as \f(CW$uri\fR\->path_segments (if you don't
consider path segment parameters)
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->params and \f(CW$url\fR\->eparams methods
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->base method.  See URI::WithBase.
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->abs and \f(CW$url\fR\->rel have an optional \f(CW$base\fR argument.  See
URI::WithBase.
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->frag: same as \f(CW$uri\fR\->fragment
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->keywords: same as \f(CW$uri\fR\->query_keywords
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->localpath and friends map to \f(CW$uri\fR\->file.
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->address and \f(CW$url\fR\->encoded822addr: same as \f(CW$uri\fR\->to for mailto URI
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->groupart method for news URI
.IP \(bu 3
\&\f(CW$url\fR\->article: same as \f(CW$uri\fR\->message
