Re: [RFC] [Under Discussion] New Curl URL API

Hi Derick, > > - The new CurlUrl class should probably be immutable from the start. It > was my biggest mistake not to do that with DateTime. > > Thanks for sharing your lessons learned. But I still see some use cases where mutable objects are easier to use. From the experience you had with DateTime, do you think that having CurlUrl being immutable and providing a MutableCurlUrl would make sense ? I see some cases where you "navigate" on a website using the same CurlHandle and just want to manipulate the MutableCurlUrl handle to change urls. > - What happens if the curl library available on the system does not have > the features and functions that this new class relies on?

As you expected, if the functions are not available in libcurl, the class will not be available. Same thing for each constant/feature. The extension will "adapt" to the curl version. I will add this to the RFC. Pierrick
