== Synopsis


Declared in `<https://www.github.com/boostorg/url/blob/develop/include/boost/url/segments_encoded_ref.hpp#L626[boost/url/segments_encoded_ref.hpp]>`

replace(
    xref:boost/urls/segments_encoded_base/iterator.adoc[iterator] from,
    xref:boost/urls/segments_encoded_base/iterator.adoc[iterator] to,

== Description


This function replaces a range of        segments with one segment.        Reserved characters in the string are        automatically escaped.        Escapes in the string are preserved.

All iterators that are equal to        `from` or come after are invalidated.


=== Complexity

Linear in `s.size() + this‐>url().encoded_resouce().size()`.


=== Exception Safety

Strong guarantee.        Calls to allocate may throw.        Exceptions thrown on invalid input.



== Exceptions


|===
| Name | Thrown on

| `system_error`
| The string contains an invalid percent‐encoding.


|===

== Return Value


An iterator to the new segment.



== Parameters


|===
| Name | Description

| *from*
| The first element in the range of segments to replace.


| *to*
| One past the last element in the range of segments to replace.


| *s*
| The string to assign.
