== Description


This function replaces the segment at
the specified position.
Reserved characters in the string are
automatically escaped.
Escapes in the string are preserved.



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

=== Complexity

Linear in `s.size() + this-&gt;url().encoded_resouce().size()`.

=== Exception Safety

Strong guarantee.
Calls to allocate may throw.




== Return Value


An iterator to the replaced segment.
