Description

In mod_python 3.3, a finfoobject was introduced and returned when req.finfo was accessed. This provided backward compatibility so that tuple style access still worked, but prefered means of accessing data now is by attribute lookup.

In a similar way, a urlobject needs to be introduced so that parts of parsed uri information are accessed by attribute lookup rather than tuple style access. For example:

req.parsed_uri.path

instead of:

req.parsed_uri[apache.URI_PATH]
