url::set_encoded_password

Set the password.

Synopsis
url&
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.

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_encoded_password( "pass" ).encoded_userinfo() == "user:pass" );
Postconditions
this->has_password() == true
Exception Safety

Strong guarantee. Calls to allocate may throw.

Exceptions

Type

Thrown On

system_error

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

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