This project contains the source code that will track the proposal for a C++ URI at http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2012/n3420.html.

This package provides:

• A network::uri class that implements a generic URI parser, compatible with RFC 3986 and RFC 3987
• Accessors to the underlying URI parts
• A range-compatible interface
• Methods to normalize and compare URIs
• Percent encoding and decoding functions
• A URI builder to build consistent URIs from parts, including case, percent encoding and path normalization

Boost can be downloaded from http://www.boost.org/users/download/. This library requires at least Boost 1.53. Follow instructions to build boost at http://www.boost.org/doc/html/bbv2/installation.html and set the environment variable BOOST_ROOT to the location of the installation.

Instructions can be found here: http://googletest.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/README . In order to locate using cmake, set the environment GTEST_ROOT to the location of the installation.

$ set BOOST_ROOT=...
$ set GTEST_ROOT=...
$ mkdir _build
$ cd _build
$ cmake ..
$ make -j4

$ ctest
