This class serves two purposes. The first is to parse a URI and provide a common interface for the Joomla! Framework to access and manipulate a URI. The second is to attain the URI of the current executing script from the server regardless of the server. The concept and implementation of this class is drawn heavily from the binary cloud environment package (http://www.binarycloud.com).
