Graham Dumpleton commented on MODPYTHON-204:
--------------------------------------------

When this is done, can expose Apache Runtime library methods:

apr_uri_unparse()
apr_uri_parse()

and possibly others. The Python equivalents would return or accept the urlob
ject.

See:

srclib/apr-util/include/apr_uri.h

in Apache source for purpose of these functions and what others could be exp
osed for use in mod_python.

> In mod_python 3.3, a finfoobject was introduced and returned when req.finf
o was accessed. This provided backward compatibility so that tuple style acc
ess still worked, but prefered means of accessing data now is by attribute l
ookup.
> In a similar way, a urlobject needs to be introduced so that parts of pars
ed uri information are accessed by attribute lookup rather than tuple style 
access. For example:
>   req.parsed_uri.path
> instead of:
>   req.parsed_uri[apache.URI_PATH]
