Constructor


== Synopsis

Declared in header `<https://www.github.com/boostorg/url/blob/develop/include/boost/url/url_view.hpp#L146[boost/url/url_view.hpp,window=blank_]>`

[source,cpp,subs="verbatim,macros,-callouts"]
----
url_view() noexcept;
----

== Description


Default constructed views refer to
a string with zero length, which
always remains valid. This matches
the grammar for a relative-ref with
an empty path and no query or
fragment.

=== Example
[,cpp]
----
url_view u;
----

=== Postconditions
[,cpp]
----
this->empty() == true
----

=== Complexity

Constant.

=== Exception Safety

Throws nothing.

=== BNF
[,cpp]
----
relative-ref  = relative-part [ "?" query ] [ "#" fragment ]
----
