# boost::urls::url_view_base::encoded_path

Return the path

## Synopsis

Declared in `<boost/url/url_view_base.hpp>`

    pct_string_view
    encoded_path() const noexcept;

## Description

This function returns the path as a string. The path may be empty. Any percent‐escapes in the string are decoded first.

## Example

    assert( url_view( "file:///Program%20Files/Games/config.ini" ).encoded_path() == "/Program%20Files/Games/config.ini" );

## Complexity

Constant.

## Exception Safety

Throws nothing.

## BNF

    path          = path-abempty    ; begins with "/" or is empty
                  / path-absolute   ; begins with "/" but not "//"
                  / path-noscheme   ; begins with a non-colon segment
                  / path-rootless   ; begins with a segment
                  / path-empty      ; zero characters

    path-abempty  = *( "/" segment )
    path-absolute = "/" [ segment-nz *( "/" segment ) ]
    path-noscheme = segment-nz-nc *( "/" segment )
    path-rootless = segment-nz *( "/" segment )
    path-empty    = 0<pchar>
