Non‐owning encoded query parameter view

== Synopsis

Declared in `<https://www.github.com/boostorg/url/blob/develop/include/boost/url/params_encoded_view.hpp#Lundefined[boost/url/params_encoded_view.hpp]>`

[source,cpp,subs="verbatim,replacements,macros,-callouts"]
----
class params_encoded_view
    : public xref:boost/urls/params_encoded_base.adoc[params_encoded_base]
----

== Description

This read‐only range exposes the raw percent‐encoded key/value pairs stored in a query string. It does not copy the underlying buffer; callers must ensure the referenced character storage outlives the view.

== Example

[,cpp]
----
url_view u( "?first=John&last=Doe" );

params_encoded_view p = u.encoded_params();
----
Iteration yields xref:boost/urls/param_pct_view.adoc[`param_pct_view`] values, so encoded strings and escape validation are preserved for callers that want exact bytes.

== Iterator Invalidation

Changes to the underlying character buffer can invalidate iterators which reference it.
