Subject: java.net.URL - how it compares addresses

Because of how I am organizing my list of web pages I cant compare if two addresses are the same by using URL. But in the assigment it saids two addresses are equal if URL saids they are. So I'm trying to figure out URLs algorithem. from my tests this is true. http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/foo http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/foo equal http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/foo http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/foo/ NOT equal http://wWw.aNdRew.cMU.EDu/foo http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/foo equal http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/foo http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/FOO NOT equal any other intersting cases I might be missing? What I'm currently doing is basicly making the server all lower case and then comparing two strings for equality. Thanks. - Peter
