For information about URIs, see RFC 3986. In short, a URL is a URI. In other words, URL is a subset of a URI - all acceptable URLs are also acceptable URIs. wxURI automatically escapes invalid characters in a string, so there is no chance of wxURI "failing" on construction/creation. wxURI supports copy construction and standard assignment operators. wxURI can also be inherited from to provide furthur functionality. @library{wxbase} @category{data} @see wxURL */ class wxURI : public wxObject { public: //@{ /** Copies this URI from another URI. @param uri URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) to initialize with */ wxURI(); wxURI(const wxChar* uri); wxURI(const wxURI& uri); //@} /** Builds the URI from its individual components and adds proper separators.
