/**
  * This final class represents an Internet Uniform Resource Locator (URL).
  * For details on the syntax of URL's and what they can be used for,
  * refer to RFC 1738, available from <a
  * href="http://ds.internic.net/rfcs/rfc1738.txt">
  * http://ds.internic.net/rfcs/rfc1738.txt</a>
  * <p>
  * There are a great many protocols supported by URL's such as "http",
  * "ftp", and "file".  This object can handle any arbitrary URL for which
  * a URLStreamHandler object can be written.  Default protocol handlers
  * are provided for the "http" and "ftp" protocols.  Additional protocols
  * handler implementations may be provided in the future.  In any case,
  * an application or applet can install its own protocol handlers that
  * can be "chained" with other protocol hanlders in the system to extend
  * the base functionality provided with this class. (Note, however, that
  * unsigned applets cannot access properties by default or install their
  * own protocol handlers).
  * <p>
  * This chaining is done via the system property java.protocol.handler.pkgs
  * If this property is set, it is assumed to be a "|" separated list of
  * package names in which to attempt locating protocol handlers.  The
  * protocol handler is searched for by appending the string
  * ".&lt;protocol&gt;.Handler" to each packed in the list until a hander is
  * found. If a protocol handler is not found in this list of packages, or if
  * the property does not exist, then the default protocol handler of
  * "gnu.java.net.&lt;protocol&gt;.Handler" is tried.  If this is
  * unsuccessful, a MalformedURLException is thrown.
  * <p>
  * All of the constructor methods of URL attempt to load a protocol
  * handler and so any needed protocol handlers must be installed when
  * the URL is constructed.
  * <p>
  * Here is an example of how URL searches for protocol handlers.  Assume
  * the value of java.protocol.handler.pkgs is "com.foo|com.bar" and the
  * URL is "news://comp.lang.java.programmer".  URL would looking the
  * following places for protocol handlers:
  * <p><pre>
  * com.foo.news.Handler
  * com.bar.news.Handler
  * gnu.java.net.news.Handler
  * </pre><p>
  * If the protocol handler is not found in any of those locations, a
  * MalformedURLException would be thrown.
  * <p>
  * Please note that a protocol handler must be a subclass of
  * URLStreamHandler.
  * <p>
  * Normally, this class caches protocol handlers.  Once it finds a handler
  * for a particular protocol, it never tries to look up a new handler
  * again.  However, if the system property
  * gnu.java.net.nocache_protocol_handlers is set, then this
  * caching behavior is disabled.  This property is specific to this
  * implementation.  Sun's JDK may or may not do protocol caching, but it
  * almost certainly does not examine this property.
  * <p>
  * Please also note that an application can install its own factory for
  * loading protocol handlers (see setURLStreamHandlerFactory).  If this is
  * done, then the above information is superseded and the behavior of this
  * class in loading protocol handlers is dependent on that factory.
