Java URL Bloomer

I came across an interesting problem in java



public class URLBloomer {
public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException, URISyntaxException {
String[] urls= {
"http://meshlabsinc.com",
"http://meshserver.org"
};
Set testing=new HashSet();
for (String url : urls) {
testing.add(new URL(url));
}
System.out.println(testing.size());
}
}


Output : 1

Reason .... meshlabsinc.com and meshserver.org point to the same IP


Lesson learnt is to use URI instead of URL class.


public class URLBloomer {
public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException, URISyntaxException {
String[] urls= {
"http://meshlabsinc.com",
"http://meshserver.org"
};
Set testing=new HashSet();
for (String url : urls) {
testing.add(new URI(url));
}
System.out.println(testing.size());
}
}

Output : 2
