URL Encode

This data converter encodes characters with URL encodings.

The characters that need to be encoded are first converted to bytes using the selected character encoding, and the bytes are then represented on the form %HH, where HH is the hexadecimal byte value.

Properties

The URL Encode data converter can be configured using the following properties:

Character Encoding: The character encoding to use for converting the characters to bytes.
Description: Type in a description to be shown in the list of data converters. If there is no type in a description, one will be generated.

Example

If the selected encoding is UTF-8, and the input text is:

    x+y=z

the data converter will output:

    x%2By%3Dz
