Usage

Parse a URL into it's component:

DATA(url) = zcl_url=>parse( 'https://example.com/path?query#fragment' ).

" url->components-scheme   = 'https'
" url->components-host     = 'example.com'
" url->components-path     = '/path'
" url->components-query    = 'query'
" url->components-fragment = 'fragment'

Serialize a URL from components:

DATA(components) = VALUE zcl_url=>ty_url_components(
  scheme   = 'https'
  username = 'user'
  password = 'pass'
  host     = 'example.com'
  port     = '8080'
  path     = '/path/to/resource'
  query    = 'key=value'
  fragment = 'section' ).

DATA(url_string) = zcl_url=>serialize( components ).

" url_string = 'https://user:pass@example.com:8080/path/to/resource?key=value#section'
