This covers all the places I could find trying to use isolatedCopy to capture something and pass it to a new thread, but dealing with the last deref on the main thread incorrectly.

This idiom makes URL forget that it was invalid - we get a string, and then push it back into a URL without checks.

I think that we need to explicitly check for url being valid here and everywhere else.

[Alexey Proskuryakov]

Or better yet, introduce a URLCapture class.

[Darin Adler]

I’ll add URLCapture.

Very nice!

This function ended up unused, would you still like to keep it?

It is unusual to have a copy constructor, but delete operator=. I'm not sure if that's legitimate.

I simply copied StringCapture. I think the two should stay in sync, but I am not sure if either needs this. I think we should have either url() or releaseURL(), but I don’t think we need both.

I don’t feel strongly about this design issue; it’s a little arbitrary to not have operator=, but seems OK to me. Note that the only reason we have a copy constructor in this class is because that’s what’s used to capture. If we could make it legal only for capture and make any other copying illegal, I think we would do that.

Right, I tried to make it harder to use this class for anything else beyond capturing.

I was thinking about the rule of three <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_three_(C%2B%2B_programming)>.

I certainly don't feel strongly about this at all. If there is anything to change here, it's probably to delete operator=(URLCapture&&) as well.
