-== NAME
-
-nng_url_parse - create URL structure from a string
-
-== SYNOPSIS
-
-[source, c]
-----
-#include <nng/nng.h>
-
-int nng_url_parse(nng_url **urlp, const char *str);
-----
-
-== DESCRIPTION
-
-The `nng_url_parse()` function parses the string _str_ containing an
-https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986[RFC 3986] compliant URL, and creates
-an
-xref:nng_url.5.adoc[`nng_url`] structure containing the results.
-A pointer to the resulting structure is stored in _urlp_.
-
-The structure may disposed of when no longer needed by calling
-xref:nng_url_free.3.adoc[`nng_url_free()`].
-
-=== URL Canonicalization
-
-The `nng_url_parse()` function also canonicalizes the results, as
-follows:
-
- 1. The URL is parsed into the various components.
- 2. The `u_scheme`, `u_hostname`, `u_host`, and `u_port` members are
- converted to lower case.
- 3. Percent-encoded values for
- https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-2.3[unreserved characters]
- converted to their unencoded forms.
- 4. Additionally URL percent-encoded values for characters in the path
- and with numeric values larger than 127 (i.e. not ASCII) are decoded.
- 5. The resulting `u_path` is checked for invalid UTF-8 sequences, consisting
- of surrogate pairs, illegal byte sequences, or overlong encodings.
- If this check fails, then the entire URL is considered invalid, and
- the function returns `NNG_EINVAL`.
- 6. Path segments consisting of `.` and `..` are resolved as per
- https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-6.2.2.3[RFC 3986 6.2.2.3].
- 7. Further, empty path segments are removed, meaning that duplicate
- slash (`/`) separators are removed from the path.
- 8. If a port was not specified, but the scheme defines a default
- port, then `u_port` will be filled in with the value of the default port.
-
-TIP: Only the `u_userinfo`, `u_query`, and `u_fragment` members will ever be
- `NULL`. The other members will be filled in with either default values
- or the empty string if they cannot be determined from _str_.
-
-== RETURN VALUES
-
-This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
-
-
-== ERRORS
-
-[horizontal]
-`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient free memory exists to allocate a message.
-`NNG_EINVAL`:: An invalid URL was supplied.
