= Function params_encoded_base::find_last

pass:v,q[Find a matching key]


== Synopsis

Declared in header `</boost/url/params_encoded_base.hpp#L503[boost/url/params_encoded_base.hpp,window=blank_]>`

find_last(
    xref:boost/urls/params_encoded_base/iterator.adoc[iterator] before,

== Description

pass:v,q[This function examines the parameters] pass:v,q[in the container to find a match for]
pass:v,q[the specified key, which may contain]
pass:v,q[percent escapes.]
pass:v,q[The comparison is performed as if all]
pass:v,q[escaped characters were decoded first.]
pass:v,q[The search starts prior to `before`]
pass:v,q[and proceeds backwards until either the]
pass:v,q[key is found or the beginning of the]
pass:v,q[range is reached, in which case `end()`]
pass:v,q[is returned.]

=== Example
[,cpp]
----
url_view u( "?First=John&Last=Doe" );

assert( u.encoded_params().find_last( "last" ) != u.encoded_params().find_last( "last", ignore_case ) );
----

=== Complexity
pass:v,q[Linear in `this->buffer().size()`.]
