While the idea sounds nice that the tag name is the class, this means the
serialization includes whether something is mutable or immutable. This means
doing as much as making something immutable changes the serialization, which
can then cause issues after being deserialized. file: [659e656a72] check-in: [6ce0093f8d] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 11625 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This is as per the RFC, which says the scheme and path can never be
missing, while the path can be empty. file: [b3a4d03434] check-in: [3e455c4839] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 11236 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

The scheme does not allow percent encoding. file: [9ffb55b5cf] check-in: [13ead1212f] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 11331 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This allows constructing a URI to access a file within an archive. file: [0e7faecce0] check-in: [19bbbbd95d] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 11579 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

With a dictionary the order is lost and keys cannot exist more than
once. file: [ef45469449] check-in: [bd6dd6dd00] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 11489 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

__COUNTER__ does not exist in GCC 4.2, and Apple GCC 4.2 is still the
newest compiler available for macOS 10.5. file: [08c79490ee] check-in: [ef614a225d] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 10031 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This allows ABI stability with the fragile ABI. file: [6489d1ac08] check-in: [496695d778] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 9904 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

These were unavailable in the immutable class, but available in the
mutable subclass. However, Clang 3.4 does not support this. file: [fe71aaca70] check-in: [dae363ef82] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 9727 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This allows retrieving it how it was originally stored, which is useful
for example for query strings, as these often URL-encode allowed
characters in order to allow pairs of the form foo=bar&bar=qux. file: [8793c73a5f] check-in: [a15b403a11] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 8593 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This also means the parameters go away and get folded into the path. file: [a6d37c0b2c] check-in: [5f7305c659] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 5359 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This improves Swift compatibility. file: [cb95b72aba] check-in: [f3ccf14461] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 5518 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This also adds -[OFURL fileSystemRepresentation] to correctly convert a
URL back to a path in the local file system. file: [cd4f15175b] check-in: [b83d1414b1] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3908 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This removes the special handling dependent on the scheme. file: [eee6f35b3b] check-in: [0f995db06d] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3594 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Instead, explicitly declare them, as OF_ASSUME_NONNULL_{BEGIN,END} does
not apply to implicit return types. This means that after this commit,
all init methods have a nonnull return type, as they should have. file: [c55211ca68] check-in: [2f4e0df8be] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3455 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Casts are now written like types in variable declarations. file: [de5ad4004e] check-in: [4af49a13c3] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3272 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This changes retaining behavior, meaning properties are not returned
retained and autoreleased anymore, so a property returned from a getter
now needs to be manually retained and autoreleased before calling the
setter. However, this is rarely the case and not using atomic improves
performance. file: [336f088c44] check-in: [0a73af49f0] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3264 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Forgot to add 2017, even though I already did quite some changes in
2017. file: [5188a3f0dd] check-in: [44f45c2e35] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3176 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

While at it, also update the mail address. file: [3fe988b8aa] check-in: [cec0f072f8] user: js, branch: 0.8, size: 4874 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

While at it, also update the mail address. file: [1ffe3a44f6] check-in: [2a27cf3000] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 2946 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This increases the required GCC version from 4.0 to 4.6 (exception:
Apple GCC, which already supports this with >= 4.0 starting with OS X
10.5). Since even GCC 4.6 is really old by now, there is no point in
still supporting something even older and making the code ugly because
of that. While some hardware and OS support was dropped from GCC 4.6
compared to GCC 4.0, there is nothing in there that would be an
interesting target with the exception of BeOS maybe - but a port to BeOS
can also be achieved using the Haiku support. The other dropped OSes are
mostly old versions of OSes while newer ones are still being supported
(and those newer versions of those OSes still support the same
hardware). file: [3cbefbabba] check-in: [48980f2297] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 2942 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This is necessary to make GCC (>= 4.6 and Apple GCC) happy as they don't
like the list of property attributes ending in a comma. file: [f7f23cc369] check-in: [80e1a9655b] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4870 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This also makes -[description] more robust, as with this change, it is
now possible that required parts of the URL are nil. file: [0221f4c097] check-in: [12a4d43f67] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4829 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]
