boost::urls::url_base::normalize_path

Normalize the URL path

Synopsis

Declared in <boost/url/url_base.hpp>
url_base&
normalize_path();

Description

Applies Syntax-based normalization to the URL path.

Percent-encoding triplets are normalized to uppercase letters. Percent-encoded octets that correspond to unreserved characters are decoded. Redundant path-segments "." and ".." are removed.

assert( url( "http://www.example.com/a/b/../c" ).normalize_path().buffer() == "http://www.example.com/a/c" ); assert( url( "http://www.example.com/a/./b" ).normalize_path().buffer() == "http://www.example.com/a/b" ); assert( url( "http://www.example.com/%63ss" ).normalize_path().buffer() == "http://www.example.com/css" );

Exception Safety

Strong guarantee. Calls to allocate may throw.
