     44  * <p>
     45  *  The following rules are used throughout this specification to describe basic parsing constructs.
     46  *  The US-ASCII coded character set is defined by ANSI X3.4-1986.
     47  * </p>
     48  * <pre>

     51  *     UPALPHA        = <any US-ASCII uppercase letter "A".."Z">
     52  *     LOALPHA        = <any US-ASCII lowercase letter "a".."z">
     53  *     ALPHA          = UPALPHA | LOALPHA
     54  *     DIGIT          = <any US-ASCII digit "0".."9">
     55  *     CTL            = <any US-ASCII control character

     62  * </pre>
     63  * <p>
     64  *  Many HTTP/1.1 header field values consist of words separated by LWS or special
     65  *  characters. These special characters MUST be in a quoted string to be used within
     66  *  a parameter value (as defined in section 3.6).

     73  *                | "{" | "}" | SP | HT
     74  * </pre>
     75  * <p>
     76  *  A string of text is parsed as a single word if it is quoted using double-quote marks.

     84  *  within quoted-string and comment constructs.
