boost::urls::url_base::set_encoded_userinfo
Set the userinfo.
Synopsis
Declared in header <boost/url/url_base.hpp>
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.
The interpretation of the userinfo as individual user and password components is scheme-dependent. Transmitting passwords in URLs is deprecated.
assert( url( "http://example.com" ).set_encoded_userinfo( "john%20doe" ).user() == "john doe" );Strong guarantee.
Calls to allocate may throw. Exceptions thrown on invalid input.
userinfo = [ [ user ] [ ':' password ] ]
user = *( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims )
password = *( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" )
