         print $parsed->fragment;

         # reconstruct the url, after changing some components and completely
         # removing other
         $parsed->scheme($new_scheme);
         $parsed->user(undef);
         $parsed->password(undef);

         $parsed->query(undef);
         $parsed->fragment(undef);
         print $parsed->unparse;

         # get the password field too (by default it's not revealed)
         use APR::Const -compile => qw(URI_UNP_REVEALPASSWORD);
         print $parsed->unparse(APR::Const::URI_UNP_REVEALPASSWORD);

         # what the default port for the ftp protocol?
         my $ftp_port = APR::URI::port_of_scheme("ftp");

Description
       "APR::URI" allows you to parse URI strings, manipulate each of the URI elements and
       deparse them back into URIs.

       All "APR::URI" object accessors accept a string or an "undef" value as an argument. Same
       goes for return value. It's important to distinguish between an empty string and "undef".
       For example let's say your code was:

         my $uri = 'http://example.com/foo?bar#item5';
         my $parsed = APR::URI->parse($r->pool, $uri);

       Now you no longer want to the query and fragment components in the final url. If you do:

         $parsed->fragment('');
         $parsed->query('');

       followed by:

         my $new_uri = parsed->unparse;

       the resulting URI will be:

         http://example.com/foo?#

       which is probably not something that you've expected. In order to get rid of the
       separators, you must completely unset the fields you don't want to see. So, if you do:

         $parsed->fragment(undef);
         $parsed->query(undef);

       followed by:

         my $new_uri = parsed->unparse;

       the resulting URI will be:

          http://example.com/foo

       As mentioned earlier the same goes for return values, so continuing this example:

         my $new_fragment = $parsed->fragment();
         my $new_query    = $parsed->query();

       Both values now contain "undef", therefore you must be careful when using the return
       values, when you use them, as you may get warnings.

       Also make sure you read through "the unparse() section" as various optional flags affect
       how the deparsed URI is rendered.

API
       "APR::URI" provides the following functions and/or methods:

   "fragment"
       Get/set trailing "#fragment" string

         $oldval = $parsed->fragment($newval);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
       since: 2.0.00

   "hostinfo"
       Get/set combined "[user[:password]@]host[:port]"

         $oldval = $parsed->hostinfo($newval);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
       since: 2.0.00

       The "hostinfo" value is set automatically when "parse()" is called.

       It's not updated if any of the individual fields is modified.

       It's not used when "unparse()" is called.

   "hostname"
       Get/set hostname

         $oldval = $parsed->hostname($newval);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
       since: 2.0.00

   "password"
       Get/set password (as in http://user:password@host:port/)

         $oldval = $parsed->password($newval);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
       since: 2.0.00

   "parse"
       Parse the URI string into URI components

         $parsed = APR::URI->parse($pool, $uri);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object or class" )
       arg1: $pool ( string ) ( "APR::Pool object" )
       arg2: $uri ( string )
           The URI to parse

       ret: $parsed ( "APR::URI object or class" )
           The parsed URI object

       since: 2.0.00

       After parsing, if a component existed but was an empty string (e.g. empty query
       http://hostname/path?) -- the corresponding accessor will return an empty string. If a
       component didn't exist (e.g. no query part http://hostname/path) -- the corresponding
       accessor will return "undef".

   "path"
       Get/set the request path

         $oldval = $parsed->path($newval);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
           "/" if only "scheme://host"

       since: 2.0.00

   "rpath"
       Gets the "path" minus the "path_info"

         $rpath =  $parsed->rpath();

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
           The path minus the path_info

       since: 2.0.00

   "port"
       Get/set port number

         $oldval = $parsed->port($newval);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( number or string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
           If the port component didn't appear in the parsed URI, APR internally calls
           "port_of_scheme()" to find out the port number for the given "scheme()".

       since: 2.0.00

   "port_of_scheme"
       Return the default port for a given scheme.  The recognized schemes are http, ftp, https,
       gopher, wais, nntp, snews and prospero.

         $port = APR::URI::port_of_scheme($scheme);

       obj: $scheme ( string )
           The scheme string

       ret: $port (integer)
           The default port for this scheme

       since: 2.0.00

   "query"
       Get/set the query string (the part starting after '?' and all the way till the end or the
       '#fragment' part if the latter exists).

         $oldval = $parsed->query($newval);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
       since: 2.0.00

   "scheme"
       Get/set the protocol scheme ("http", "ftp", ...)

         $oldval = $parsed->scheme($newval);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
       since: 2.0.00

   "user"
       Get/set user name (as in http://user:password@host:port/)

         $oldval = $parsed->user($newval);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $newval ( string or undef )
       ret: $oldval ( string or undef )
       since: 2.0.00

   "unparse"
       Unparse the URI components back into a URI string

         $new_uri = $parsed->unparse();
         $new_uri = $parsed->unparse($flags);

       obj: $parsed ( "APR::URI object" )
       opt arg1: $flags ( the APR::Const :uri constants )
           By default the constant "APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITPASSWORD" is passed.

           If you need to pass more than one flag use unary "|", e.g.:

             $flags = APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITUSER|APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITPASSWORD;

           The valid "flags" constants are listed next

       ret: $new_uri ( string )
       since: 2.0.00

       Valid "flags" constants:

       To import all URI constants you could do:

         use APR::Const -compile => qw(:uri);

       but there is a significant amount of them, most irrelevant to this method. Therefore you
       probably don't want to do that. Instead specify explicitly the ones that you need. All the
       relevant to this method constants start with "APR::URI_UNP_".

       And the available constants are:

       "APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITSITEPART"
           Don't show "scheme", "user", "password", "hostname" and "port" components (i.e. if you
           want only the relative URI)

       "APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITUSER"
           Hide the "user" component

       "APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITPASSWORD"
           Hide the "password" component (the default)

       "APR::Const::URI_UNP_REVEALPASSWORD"
           Reveal the "password" component

       "APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITPATHINFO"
           Don't show "path", "query" and "fragment" components

       "APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITQUERY"
           Don't show "query" and "fragment" components

       Notice that some flags overlap.

       If the optional $flags argument is passed and contains no
       "APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITPASSWORD" and no "APR::Const::URI_UNP_REVEALPASSWORD" -- the
       "password" part will be rendered as a literal "XXXXXXXX" string.

       If the "port" number matches the "port_of_scheme()", the unparsed URI won't include it and
       there is no flag to force that "port" to appear. If the "port" number is non-standard it
       will show up in the unparsed string.

       Examples:

       Starting with the parsed URL:

         use APR::URI ();
         my $url = 'http://user:pass AT example.com:80/foo?bar#item5';
         my $parsed = APR::URI->parse($r->pool, $url);

       deparse it back including and excluding parts, using different values for the optional
       "flags" argument:

       ·   Show all but the "password" fields:

             print $parsed->unparse;

           Prints:

             http://user AT example.com/foo?bar#item5

           Notice that the "port" field is gone too, since it was a default "port" for "scheme"
           "http://".

       ·   Include the "password" field (by default it's not revealed)

             use APR::Const -compile => qw(URI_UNP_REVEALPASSWORD);
             print $parsed->unparse(APR::Const::URI_UNP_REVEALPASSWORD);

           Prints:

             http://user:pass AT example.com/foo?bar#item5

       ·   Show all fields but the last three, "path", "query" and "fragment":

             use APR::Const -compile => qw(URI_UNP_REVEALPASSWORD
                                           APR::Const::URI_UNP_OMITPATHINFO);
             print $parsed->unparse(
                 APR::Const::URI_UNP_REVEALPASSWORD|URI_UNP_OMITPATHINFO);

           Prints:

             http://user:pass AT example.com
