[cpp-netlib-devel] url_encode bug

[Jeroen H. <vex...@gm...>]

Hi,

A friend of mine just ran into a corner-case bug in the url_encode
function in "boost/network/protocol/http/impl/message.ipp". In the
current 0.5-devel tree it's on line 82, 'sprintf(encode_buf+1, "%2X",
str[pos]);' to be specific. The format string there should be changed
to "%02X" to reflect the zero padding (instead of the default space
padding), as one-character letters such as '\n' are now encoded as '%
A' (space, A) instead of '%0A' (zero, A).

Thanks,
Jeroen
