Gordon Mohr updated HTTPCLIENT-588:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: httpclient-588.patch

Attached patch avoids double-slash-triggered parsing of authority when it would 
be inappropriate: when URI is a simple authority-less path. Test for setting 
'isStartedWithPath' improved to not indicate 'true' for URIs that begin '//'; 
'isStartedWithPath' reused in later check to suppress inappropriate 
authority-parsing. Unit test verifies problem in current code and corrected 
behavior for test case after fix. 

> relative URIs with internal double-slashes ('//') misparsed

> URI.parseUriReference()'s heuristic for interpreting URI parts is thrown off 
> by relative URIs which include an internal '//'. As a result, portions of the 
> supplied relative URI (path) can be lost. 
> For example:
> URI rel = new URI("foo//bar//baz");
> rel.toString();
> (java.lang.String) //bar//baz
> The culprit seems to be line 1961 of URI improperly concluding that two 
> slashes later than the beginning of 'tmp' are still indicative the URI is a 
> 'net_path'. 
> A possible quick fix might be to add a '!isStartedFromPath &&' to the 
> beginning of the line 1961 test, making the line:
>             if (!isStartedFromPath && at + 2 < length && tmp.charAt(at + 1) 
> == '/') {
> ... and thus preventing the misguided authority-parsing from happening when 
> earlier analysis already identified the current string as a strictly 
> path-oriented URI.
> (It also appears the setting of the is_net_path boolean at the end of this 
> if's block may be wrong; this code is run for hier_path URIs that are not 
> net_paths in the 2396 syntax. For example:
> URI uri = new URI("http://www.example.com/some/page";);
> uri.isNetPath();
>  (boolean) true 
> )
