Hi Santiago, I'm following up on a suggestion from Mike Smith: http://krijnhoetmer.nl/irc-logs/whatwg/20141024#l-697 He suggested that I ask you for feedback on the following: http://intertwingly.net/projects/pegurl/url.html I also said that I would test galimatias for compatibility. I've posted the results here: http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/ A few notes: it doesn't appear to me that galimatias reports any recoverable parse errors (for example, including a tab or a linefeed inside a path). Also galimatias doesn't provide the interfaces that the URL Standard defines, for example to get the portname - an interface that is supposed to return null if the port matches the default port for the scheme. Even with that accounted for, there still are a number of notable results: Null pointer exceptions, some examples: http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/bf8630587b, http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/4038fcfa6d, http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/275612041a, http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/2f33177681, http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/e630bf59c6, http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/a16d100f37 Returning an empty string instead of null for fragment: http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/1b77231365 Returning an empty string instead of null for query: http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/24f081633d ipv6 addresses not wrapped in []: http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/54f86d22f2 difference in case: http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/e40dedda84, http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest-results/9a4e54b1c3 If you want to review how I captured these results, the program I used can be found here: http://intertwingly.net/stories/2014/10/24/urltest.java Please let me know if you identify any problems with that program, and I will be glad to rerun the tests. - Sam Ruby
