- - ### Method Summary

    All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `String` | `constructClientPath(String... terms)` Constructs a client path, the path portion of an absolute URL.
    `String` | `constructDispatchPath(String... terms)` Constructs the dispatch path, which is like the client path, but omits the context path; this aligns the result with the value returned from `Request.getPath()`, and is used in code, typically `Dispatcher` implementations, that are attempting to route based on the incoming request path.
