Sebb commented on VALIDATOR-342:
--------------------------------
The method does indeed check the domain.
I don't know why this is not mentioned in the Javadoc.
What you appear to be asking for is a syntax check of a URL string, i.e.
skipping the domain check.
The existing method could perhaps be extended to add another option to skip the
check.
> URLValidator returns false for http://example.rocks
