Return a shared, persistent copy of the url
<include/boost/url/url_view_base.hpp>
std::shared_ptr<url_view const>
persist() const;
This function returns a read-only copy of the url, with shared lifetime. The returned value owns (persists) the underlying string. The algorithm used to create the value minimizes the number of individual memory allocations, making it more efficient than when using direct standard library functions.
std::shared_ptr< url_view const > sp;
{
std::string s( "http://example.com" );
url_view u( s ); // u references characters in s
assert( u.data() == s.data() ); // same buffer
sp = u.persist();
assert( sp->data() != s.data() ); // different buffer
assert( sp->buffer() == s); // same contents
// s is destroyed and thus u
// becomes invalid, but sp remains valid.
