Return the host
Synopsis
Declared in header <boost/url/url_view_base.hpp>
template<class StringToken = string_token::return_string>
StringToken::result_type
host_address(StringToken&& token) const;
Description
The value returned by this function depends on the type of host returned from the function host_type .
-
If the type is host_type::ipv4 , then the IPv4 address string is returned.
-
If the type is host_type::ipv6 , then the IPv6 address string is returned, without any enclosing brackets.
-
If the type is host_type::ipvfuture , then the IPvFuture address string is returned, without any enclosing brackets.
-
If the type is host_type::name , then the host name string is returned. Any percent-escapes in the string are decoded first.
-
If the type is host_type::none , then an empty string is returned.
Example
assert( url_view( "https://[1::6:c0a8:1]/" ).host_address() == "1::6:c0a8:1" );
Complexity
Linear in this->host_address().size()
.
Exception Safety
Calls to allocate may throw.
BNF
host = IP-literal / IPv4address / reg-name
IP-literal = "[" ( IPv6address / IPvFuture ) "]"
reg-name = *( unreserved / pct-encoded / "-" / ".")
