We have to create a function that receives a connection string with password included and you have to mask the password i.e. change password by asterisks.
Preconditions:
- non empty valid url
- password always next to string section
password= - assume password will not contain ampersand sign for sake of simplicity
- to make it more real it has non ASCII characters
- "password=" and "user" will occur only once
empty passwords are not validated but best solutions take empty passwords into account
Input: jdbc:mysql://sdasdasdasd:szdasdasd:dfsdfsdfsdf/sdfsdfsdf?user=root&password=12345
Output: jdbc:mysql://sdasdasdasd:szdasdasd:dfsdfsdfsdf/sdfsdfsdf?user=root&password=*****
