provide OkHttp with an HTTP request, you’re describing the request at a high-level: _“fetch me this URL with these headers.”_ For correctness and efficiency, OkHttp rewrites your request before transmitting it.

OkHttp may add headers that are absent from the original request, including `Content-Length`, `Transfer-Encoding`, `User-Agent`, `Host`, `Connection`, and `Content-Type`. It will add an `Accept-Encoding` header for transparent response compression unless the header is already present....

        '`'.code,
        '{'.code,
        '|'.code,
        '}'.code,
      )
      .test(UrlComponentEncodingTester.Component.HOST)
  }

  @Test
  fun hostIpv6() {
    // Square braces are absent from host()...
    assertThat(parse("http://[::1]/").host).isEqualTo("::1")

    // ... but they're included in toString().
    assertThat(parse("http://[::1]/").toString()).isEqualTo("http://[::1]/")

   it throws an `InterruptedIOException`.

## Version 1.5.2

_2014-03-17_

 * Fix bug where deleting a file that was absent from the `HttpResponseCache`
   caused an IOException.
 * Fix bug in HTTP/2 where our HPACK decoder wasn't emitting entries in
   certain eviction scenarios, leading to dropped response headers.

## Version 1.5.1

   * `ConcurrentModificationException`, but if new responses are added while iterating, their URLs
   * will not be returned. If existing responses are evicted during iteration, they will be absent
   * (unless they were already returned).
   *
   * The iterator supports [MutableIterator.remove]. Removing a URL from the iterator evicts the
   * corresponding response from the cache. Use this to evict selected responses.

 *
 * ### Username and Password
 *
 * Username and password are either present, or the empty string `""` if absent. This class offers
 * no mechanism to differentiate empty from absent. Neither of these components are popular in
 * practice. Typically HTTP applications use other mechanisms for user identification and
 * authentication.
 *
 * ### Host
 *

    could use new flow control capacity before acknowledging it, causing strict HTTP/2 servers to
    fail the call.


## Version 3.12.4

_2019-09-04_

 *  Fix: Don't crash looking up an absent class on certain buggy Android 4.x devices.


## Version 3.12.3

_2019-05-07_

 *  Fix: Permit multipart file names to contain non-ASCII characters.

   * entries will not be returned by the iterator. If existing entries are removed during iteration,
   * they will be absent (unless they were already returned).

   * If there are I/O problems during iteration, this iterator fails silently. For example, if the
