boost::urls::url_base::normalize_path

Normalize the URL path

Synopsis

Declared in <boost/url/url_base.hpp>

url_base&
normalize_path();

Description

Applies Syntax‐based normalization to the URL path.

Percent‐encoding triplets are normalized to uppercase letters. Percent‐encoded octets that correspond to unreserved characters are decoded. Redundant path‐segments "." and ".." are removed.

assert( url( "http://www.example.com/a/b/../c" ).normalize_path().buffer() == "http://www.example.com/a/c" );
assert( url( "http://www.example.com/a/./b" ).normalize_path().buffer() == "http://www.example.com/a/b" );
assert( url( "http://www.example.com/%63ss" ).normalize_path().buffer() == "http://www.example.com/css" );
