user

Return the user

Synopsis

template< class StringToken = return_string> StringToken::result_type user( StringToken&& token);

Declared in file <boost/url/url_view_base.hpp> at line 793

Description

If present, this function returns a string representing the user (which may be empty). Otherwise it returns an empty string. Any percent-escapes in the string are decoded first.

Example

assert( url_view( "http://jane%2Ddoe:pass@example.com" ).user() == "jane-doe" );

Complexity

Linear in `this->user().size()`.

Exception Safety

Calls to allocate may throw.

BNF

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