What is the NSAboutURLProtocol class

131 views Asked by At

When testing out my own URLProtocol subclass, I printed a list of the other subclasses the system knows about. I saw a "NSAboutURLProtocol" there. Does anyone know what it does?

I think it handles the "about:" URL scheme, though I have no idea what "handles" means in this context. It probably returns a blank document with a 200 status code or something.
