URLEncoder (Apache Tomcat 7.0.96 API Documentation)

org.apache.catalina.util

## Class URLEncoder

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.catalina.util.URLEncoder

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.lang.Cloneable

      public class URLEncoder
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements java.lang.Cloneable

  This class is very similar to the java.net.URLEncoder class. Unfortunately, with java.net.URLEncoder there is no way to specify to the java.net.URLEncoder which characters should NOT be encoded. This code was moved from DefaultServlet.java
