Hello

Is there a library in boost to parse an URL ? Like to extract the protocol, username, password, hostname, port, resource, query parametrs, fragment identifiers ?

I can see some things about it using the on-site search, but the pages in the results are not accessible and I can find nothing conclusive.

There was talk of making one for the Boost.Spirit Repository, and even I have made a complete url parser using Spirit (was quite simple). It just needs to be submitted sometime is all...

I believe that Dean Michael Barris' networking library has a URL parser in it. http://github.com/mikhailberis/cpp-netlib -- Marshall
