boost::urls::url_base::set_encoded_userinfo

Set the userinfo.

Synopsis

url_base&
set_encoded_userinfo(pct_string_view s);

Description

The userinfo is set to the given string, which may contain percent-escapes. Escapes in the string are preserved, and reserved characters in the string are percent-escaped in the result. The effects on the user and password depend on the presence of a colon (':') in the string:

• If an unescaped colon exists, the characters up to the colon become the user and the rest of the characters after the colon become the password. In this case has_password returns true. Otherwise,
• If there is no colon, the user is set to the string. The function has_password returns false.

Example

assert( url( "http://example.com" ).set_encoded_userinfo( "john%20doe" ).user() == "john doe" );

Complexity

Linear in this->size() + s.size().

Exception Safety

Strong guarantee. Calls to allocate may throw. Exceptions thrown on invalid input.

BNF

userinfo = [ [ user ] [ ':' password ] ] user = *( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims ) password = *( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" )
