boost::urls::url_base::set_encoded_password

Set the password.

Synopsis

Declared in <include/boost/url/url_base.hpp>

url_base&
set_encoded_password(pct_string_view s);

Description

This function sets the password in the userinfo to the 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 interpretation of the userinfo as individual user and password components is scheme‐dependent. Transmitting passwords in URLs is deprecated.

assert( url("http://user@example.com").set_encoded_password( "pass" ).encoded_userinfo() == "user:pass" );

this->has_password() == true

Strong guarantee.

Calls to allocate may throw.

userinfo      = [ [ user ] [ ':' password ] ]

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