Question

Provided I have a java.net.URL object, pointing to let’s say

http://example.com/myItems or http://example.com/myItems/

Is there some helper somewhere to append some relative URL to this?
For instance append ./myItemId or myItemId to get :
http://example.com/myItems/myItemId

Answer 1

URL has a constructor that takes a base URL and a String spec.

Alternatively, java.net.URI adheres more closely to the standards, and has a resolve method to do the same thing. Create a URI from your URL using URL.toURI.
