I want to do what's described in question 724043, namely encode the path components of a URI. The class recommended to do that is URIUtil from Commons HttpClient 3.1. Unfortunately, that class seems to have disappeared from the most recent version of HttpClient. A similarly named class from HttpClient 4.1, URIUtils, doesn't provide the same functionality. Has this class/method been moved to some other library that I'm not aware of or is it just gone? Am I best off just copying the class from the 3.1 release into my code or is there a simpler way?
