| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| NONE0 | No flags set. |
| PARSE_RELAXED1 | Parse the URI more relaxedly than the RFC 3986 grammar specifies, fixing up or ignoring common mistakes in URIs coming from external sources. This is also needed for some obscure URI schemes where ; separates the host from the path. Don’t use this flag unless you need to. |
| HAS_PASSWORD2 | The userinfo field may contain a password, which will be separated from the username by :. |
| HAS_AUTH_PARAMS4 | The userinfo may contain additional authentication-related parameters, which will be separated from the username and/or password by ;. |
| ENCODED8 | When parsing a URI, this indicates that %-encoded characters in the userinfo, path, query, and fragment fields should not be decoded. (And likewise the host field if %G_URI_FLAGS_NON_DNS is also set.) When building a URI, it indicates that you have already %-encoded the components, and so #GUri should not do any encoding itself. |
| NON_DNS16 | The host component should not be assumed to be a DNS hostname or IP address (for example, for smb URIs with NetBIOS hostnames). |
| ENCODED_QUERY32 | Same as %G_URI_FLAGS_ENCODED, for the query field only. |
| ENCODED_PATH64 | Same as %G_URI_FLAGS_ENCODED, for the path only. |
| ENCODED_FRAGMENT128 | Same as %G_URI_FLAGS_ENCODED, for the fragment only. |
| SCHEME_NORMALIZE256 | A scheme-based normalization will be applied. For example, when parsing an HTTP URI changing omitted path to / and omitted port to 80; and when building a URI, changing empty path to / and default port 80). This only supports a subset of known schemes. (Since: 2.68) |
Flags that describe a URI.
When parsing a URI, if you need to choose different flags based on the type of URI, you can use g_uri_peek_scheme() on the URI string to check the scheme first, and use that to decide what flags to parse it with.
