Description Nikita Tovstoles 2010-04-09 17:11:16 UTC

Created attachment 25250 [details]
patch collapsing '/..' in redirect URLs

improvement: when following redirects, collapse '/..' in redirect location URLs - like major browsers do:

ie, http://host/app/page1/../../app/page2 becomes http://host/app/page2

Discussion here:
http://markmail.org/thread/3ci5hayvqyjhi2ud

Patch to trunk attached. Introduces ConversionUtils.removeSlashDotDot(url) method called from HttpSamplerBase.followRedirects(HTTPSampleResult, int) only. There's
also a unit test.
