[ruby-core:79364] [Ruby trunk Bug#13171] URI::FTP path has a trailing slash when just hostname and scheme provided

Issue #13171 has been updated by Matthew Kerwin.


If you take the URI object as a data structure with components then any stringification that round-trips through parsing is fine. This is true of any normalisation or canonicalisation.

It's only an issue if you think of the URI as a string.

----------------------------------------
As with HTTP uris, the trailing slash on a FTP uri should be optional, per RFC 1738 (ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/doc/rfc/rfc1738.txt). However, under the current implementation, URI::FTP#to_s always has a trailing slash when only a hostname is provided (i.e., no path):

~~~ ruby
URI.parse("http://example.com").to_s
=> "http://example.com"
URI.parse("ftp://example.com").to_s
=> "ftp://example.com/"
~~~
