Different John C here :-) I'm sadly forced to do a bit of C++ recently and found they don't have one in the standard library either... That feels archaic and out of the 1980's compared to the ecosystem around Ruby or Perl. The downstream fallout of refusing to just "pick one", is that packages depending on such functionality each "roll their own", and users have to provide compatibility shims all over the place. Part of the success of Ruby has been it comes "With Batteries included".

I also wrote a function for extended url parsing based on php source code. it is in dlib: https://github.com/gecko0307/dlib dlib.network.url

From what I recall, it's not even possible to parse a URL in a completely unambiguous manner. *sigh* yeah. everything after scheme is highly dependent of scheme itself, so your parser should know about various schemes and their syntax. and even with "http:" it sometimes a guesswork.

Yeah, like _far_ too many of the RFCs relating to the web, it's a mess. From what I recall, it's not even possible to parse a URL in a completely unambiguous manner. *sigh* - Jonathan M Davis

I did one based on the regex found in the RFC for my cgi and http libs. cgi version (more complete) https://github.com/adamdruppe/arsd/blob/master/cgi.d#L2163 http version (just what i needed for handling relative links in html) https://github.com/adamdruppe/arsd/blob/master/http2.d#L114 If you just need to parse a complete uri though, go ahead and use the regex from the RFC. My thing is more about making uris based on other uris for handling those links.
