> URLDecoder is supposed to be for decoding form goo stuffed into a url, not
> for decoding the path component of a url. Using it for this produces wrong
> results. In partucular, mac os x likes to make temporary files with strings
> like "+++++++" in the path. When run through URLDecoder these turn into
> spaces which means felix can't find the file you just gave it a valid file
> system location for. Since equinox does this correctly we can't use felix in
> geronimo until this is fixed.
> IIUC URLDecoder is used as an attempt to maintain compatibility with ancient
> vms that lack URI and its correct decoding behavior. Fortunately apache
> harmony implements URI so the attached patch borrows the implementation from
> harmony to provide correct behavior on antique vms.
