/**
* This is a basic message object used for exchanging filtering
* information between the filter plugins and the application
* whenever the application requires more information about the
* URI than just a filtered version of it.  Any application can
* create an instance of this class and send it to @ref KURIFilter
* to have the filter plugins fill the necessary information.
*
* @sect Example
* 
*   QString text = "kde.org";
*   KURIFilterData d = text;
*   bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filter( d );
*   if( filtered )
*     print ( "URI: %s\n"Filtered URI: %s\n URI Type: %i\n"Was Filtered: %i"
*             text.latin1(), d.uri().url().latin1(), d.uriType(), filtered );
* 
* * The above code should yield the following output: *
*   URI: kde.org
*   Filtered URI: http://kde.org
*   URI Type: 0            <== means NET_PROTOCOL
*   Was Filtered: 1        <== means the URL was successfully filtered

This * way KURL will remain a generic parser capable of parsing any * generic URL that adheres to specifications. * * The KURIFilter class applies a number of filters to a URI, * and returns the filtered version whenever possible. The filters * are implemented using plugins to provide easy extensibility * of the filtering mechanism. That is, new filters can be added in * the future by simply inheriting from @ref KURIFilterPlugin and * implementing the @ref KURIFilterPlugin::filterURI method. * * Use of this plugin-manager class is straight forward. Since * it is a singleton object, all you have to do is obtain an instance * by doing @p KURIFilter::self() and use any of the public member * functions to preform the filtering. * * @sect Example * * To simply filter a given string: *
 * bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filterURI( "kde.org" );
 * 
* * You can alternatively use a KURL: *
 * KURL url = "kde.org";
 * bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filterURI( url );
 * 
* * If you have a constant string or a constant URL, * simply invoke the corresponding function to obtain * the filtered string or URL instead of a boolean flag: *
 * QString u = KURIFilter::self()->filteredURI( "kde.org" );
 * 
* * You can also specify only specific filter(s) to be applied * by supplying the name(s) of the filter(s). By defualt all * filters that are found are loaded when the KURIFilter object * is created will be used. These names are taken from the * enteries in the \".desktop\" files. Here are a couple of * examples: *
 * QString text = "kde.org";
 * bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filterURI( text, "KShortURIFilter" );
 *
 * QStringList list;
 * list << "KShortURIFilter" << "MyFilter";
 * bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filterURI( text, list );
 * 
* * KURIFilter also allows richer data exchange through a simple * meta-object called @p KURIFilterData. Using this meta-object * you can find out more information about the URL you want to * filter. See @ref KURIFilterData for examples and details. * * @short Filters a given URL into its proper format whenever possible. */ class KURIFilter { public: /** * Return a static instance of KURIFilter. */ static KURIFilter* self(); /** * Filters the URI given by the object URIFilterData. * * This filters the given data based on the specified * filter list.
