=head1 NAME
OSSL_HTTP_parse_url,
OCSP_parse_url
- http utility functions
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/http.h>
int OSSL_HTTP_parse_url(const char *url,
int *pssl, char **puser, char **phost,
char **pport, int *pport_num,
char **ppath, char **pquery, char **pfrag);
Deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, can be hidden entirely by defining
B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value, see
L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
int OCSP_parse_url(const char *url, char **phost, char **pport, char **ppath,
int *pssl);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
OSSL_HTTP_parse_url() parses its input string I<url> as a URL of the form
C<[http[s]://][userinfo@]host[:port][/path][?query][#fragment]> and splits it up
into userinfo, host, port, path, query, and fragment components
and a flag indicating whether it begins with C<https>.
The host component may be a DNS name or an IP address
where IPv6 addresses should be enclosed in square brackets C<[> and C<]>.
The port component is optional and defaults to "443" for HTTPS, else "80".
If given, it must be in decimal form. If the I<pport_num> argument is not NULL
the integer value of the port number is assigned to I<*pport_num> on success.
The path component is also optional and defaults to C</>.
If I<pssl> is not NULL, I<*pssl> is assigned 1 in case parsing was successful
and the schema part is present and is C<https>, else 0.
Each non-NULL result pointer argument I<puser>, I<phost>, I<pport>, I<ppath>,
I<pquery>, and I<pfrag>, is assigned the respective url component.
On success, they are guaranteed to contain non-NULL string pointers, else NULL.
It is the reponsibility of the caller to free them using L<OPENSSL_free(3)>.
If I<pquery> is NULL, any given query component is handled as part of the path.
A string returned via I<*ppath> is guaranteed to begin with a C</> character.
For absent userinfo, query, and fragment components an empty string is given.
Calling the deprecated fucntion OCSP_parse_url(url, host, port, path, ssl) is
equivalent to OSSL_HTTP_parse_url(url, ssl, NULL, host, port, NULL, path, NULL, NULL).
=head1 RETURN VALUES
OSSL_HTTP_parse_url() and OCSP_parse_url()
return 1 on success, 0 on error.
