Function url_view_base::persist
Return a shared, persistent copy of the url
Synopsis
Declared in header <boost/url/url_view_base.hpp>
Description
This function returns a read-only copy of the url, with shared lifetime. The returned value owns (persists) the underlying string. The algorithm used to create the value minimizes the number of individual memory allocations, making it more efficient than when using direct standard library functions.
Example
std::shared_ptr< url_view const > sp;
{
std::string s( "http://example.com" );
url_view u( s ); // u references characters in s
assert( u.data() == s.data() ); // same buffer
sp = u.persist();
assert( sp->data() != s.data() ); // different buffer
assert( sp->buffer() == s); // same contents
// s is destroyed and thus u
// becomes invalid, but sp remains valid.
