static_url::set_password

Set the password.

Synopsis

static_url&
set_password(
    core::string_view s);

Description

This function sets the password in the userinfo to the string. Reserved characters in the string are percent-escaped in the result.

Remarks

The interpretation of the userinfo as individual user and password components is scheme-dependent. Transmitting passwords in URLs is deprecated.

Example

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

Postconditions

this->has_password() == true && this->password() == s

Exception Safety

Strong guarantee. Calls to allocate may throw.

Parameters

Name	Description
`s`	The string to set. This string may contain any characters, including nulls.

BNF

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

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

Specification

3.2.1. User Information (rfc3986)
