Class URLDecoder

java.lang.Object
oracle.i18n.net.URLDecoder

public class URLDecoder

extends Object

The URLDecoder contains a utility method for converting from a MIME format called x-www-form-urlencoded to a String object.

To convert to a String, each character is examined in turn:

• The ASCII characters 'a' through 'z', 'A' through 'Z', and '0' through '9' remain the same.
• The plus sign '+' is converted into a space character ' '.
• The remaining characters are represented by 3-character strings which begin with the percent sign, "%xy", where xy is the two-digit hexadecimal representation of the lower 8-bits of the character.

Since:

10.1.0.2
