Replace part of a string with another string

Question

Is it possible in C++ to replace part of a string with another string?

Basically, I would like to do this:

QString string(\"hello $name\");
string.re         


        

Answer 1

This sounds like an option

string.replace(string.find("%s"), string("%s").size(), "Something");

You could wrap this in a function but this one-line solution sounds acceptable. The problem is that this will change the first occurence only, you might want to loop over it, but it also allows you to insert several variables into this string with the same token (%s)
