# urlUserAllowed

Returns the character set for characters allowed in a user URL subcomponent.

## Declaration

```swift
class var urlUserAllowed: CharacterSet { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The user component of a URL is an optional component that precedes the host component, and ends at either a colon (if a password is specified) or an @ sign (if no password is specified). For example, in the URL http://username:password@www.example.com/index.html, the user component is username.
