The res_ object is a http::responsehttp::string_body, And once

Hmm...that's not what I'm seeing. I added this function to
test/beast/http/fields.cpp:
void
    testValue()
    {
        request req;
        req.insert(field::location, "http://www.google.fr/");
        auto it = req.find(field::location);
        if(it != req.end())
            log << "[" << it->value() << "]";
    }
The output is:
beast.http.fields
    [http://www.google.fr/]25.6s, 1 suite, 1 case, 334 tests total, 0
failures
    The program '[0x6BF4] tests-beast-http.exe' has exited with code
0 (0x0).
If the CRLF was being included in the value, then none of these tests
would pass, as the equalities would evaluate to false:
My bad, I apologize I wrongly converted the boost::string_view to
std::string using the .data() member function and I just realized it's
not null terminated... That's why my string was filled with random
characters.

Sorry for the noise!

I should search how people convert boost::string_view to std::string in
a convenient manner instead ;)
