| Function replace Replaces a part of a container with another container. replace(target, pos_begin, pos_end, source [, limit] [,resize_tag]) Parameters
target | A container that is modified. Types: char array, Segment, std::basic_string, String
source | A container that is inserted into target. Types: char array, Segment, std::basic_string, String Remarks: The function does not modify this container.
pos_begin | Begin of replaced area. The first position in target of the area that is replaced by source.
pos_end | End of replaced area. The position behind the last position in target of the area that is replaced by source.
limit | The maximal length of target after the operation. (optional)
resize_tag | Specifies the strategy that is applied if target has not enough capacity to store the complete content. (optional) Types: Overflow Strategy Default: Specified by DefaultOverflowImplicit of the target type.
Remarks If target is a Segment object, then limit denotes the maximal length of host(target) after the operation. Some compilers have difficulties if pos_begin and pos_end are both 0, since 0 can be both a position or an iterator. The workaround is to convert at least one of these arguments explicite to the position or to the interator type.
