decode

Return the string with percent-decoding

Synopsis

template<class StringToken = string_token::return_string>
StringToken::result_type
decode(
    encoding_opts opt = = {},
    StringToken&& token) const;

Defined in file <include/boost/url/pct_string_view.hpp> on line 345

Description

This function converts percent escapes in the string into ordinary characters and returns the result. When called with no arguments, the return type is std::string. Otherwise, the return type and style of output is determined by which string token is passed.

Example

assert( pct_string_view( "Program%20Files" ).decode() == "Program Files" );

Complexity

Linear in this->size().

Exception Safety

Calls to allocate may throw. String tokens may throw exceptions.
