Boost C++ Libraries

Remove the password.

Synopsis

url&
remove_password();

Description

This function removes the password from the userinfo if a password exists. If there is no userinfo or no authority, the call has no effect.

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:pass@example.com" ).remove_password().authority().buffer() == "user@example.com" );

Postconditions

this->has_password() == false && this->encoded_password().empty() == true

Complexity

Linear in this->size().

Exception Safety

Throws nothing.

BNF

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

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