Detailed Description

A URI authority contains userinfo, host, and port data. The format of a URI authority is //userinfo@host:port. The userinfo and port components are optional.

A URI Authority requires the existence of host information, except when a Scheme is file. When a scheme is file, then the following are considered valid URIs and equivalent:

• file:/abs/path
• file:///abs/path

Keep in mind that a URI path must start with a forward slash when an authority, as indicated by two forward slashes, is present. This means relative file paths cannot be specified with an empty authority. For example, file://abs/path will result in a host value of abs and the URI path will be /path. You can specify a relative path using file:abs/path.

URIs that are set not to have an authority (i.e. Authority() == false) preserve the legacy behaviour, which is:

• file:/abs/path has the path /abs/path
• file://abs/path has the path abs/path
• file:///abs/path has the path /abs/path
