• protocol (scheme)
• authority (includes both the domain and port)

    • port (part of the authority)
• path (includes both the directory path and filename)
    • directoryPath (part of the path; supports directories with periods, and without a trailing backslash)
    • fileName (part of the path)
• query (does not include the leading question mark)
• anchor (fragment)
