string_view

The type of string_view used by the library

Synopsis

Declared in header <boost/url/string_view.hpp>

using string_view = core::string_view;

Description

String views are used to pass character buffers into or out of functions. Ownership of the underlying character buffer is not transferred; the caller is responsible for ensuring that the lifetime of character buffer extends until it is no longer referenced.

This alias is no longer supported and should not be used in new code. Please use core::string_view instead.

This alias is included for backwards compatibility with earlier versions of the library.

However, it will be removed in future releases, and using it in new code is not recommended.

Please use the updated version instead to ensure compatibility with future versions of the library.
