equals, sameFile, hostsEqual of java.net.URLStreamHandler return true
since JDK build 1.3.0-G despite that authority fields of URLs are different.
In JDK build 1.3beta-O these methods return false. Javadoc does not
clarify the behaviour.

Maybe it is Javadoc bug.

Here is the test demonstrating the bug:

---------------------------------------------
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;

public class Test {
    public static void main (String args[]){


        try {
            URL url1 = new URL("http://he@host/file#ref");
            URL url2 = new URL("http://she@host/file#ref");
            USH ush = new USH();
            System.out.println("url1: " + url1);
            System.out.println("url2: " + url2);
            System.out.println("equals: " + ush.equals(url1, url2));
            System.out.println("hostsEqual: " + ush.hostsEqual(url1, url2));
            System.out.println("sameFile: " + ush.sameFile(url1, url2));
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Unexpected exception:" + e);
            return;
        }
    }
}

class USH extends URLStreamHandler {
    public URLConnection openConnection(URL u) throws IOException {
        return (URLConnection)null;
    }

    public boolean equals(URL u1, URL u2) {
        return super.equals(u1, u2);
    }

    public boolean sameFile(URL u1, URL u2) {
        return super.sameFile(u1, u2);
    }

    public boolean hostsEqual(URL u1, URL u2) {
        return super.hostsEqual(u1, u2);
    }

}
